Jackson 5 strings badd identification?

[Distretti]

Hello everybody. I'm looking for infos about this very bass.
Can't find anywhere, not even in audiozone catalogues.


As you can see, Reflex pickup, Professional Series and side dots.
Any hints?

Thanks a lot guys

Kip Winger bass I think.

Neckthrough would be the Winger, bolt-on would be the Futura.

ugh you guitarplayers .....stick to identifying your guitars ...ok? thats a 92 UK Eliminator. Garbage Reflex pickups and reflex preamp --yuk.
Not offered for purchase in the US.
I have the JAP Charvel version that was also only in the Jap catalog:.

But, I am a bass player as well.

ok,ok..this question was not one of the "easy" ones to answer, and he needed a full-time bassplayer to figure it out. I emailed Henrik my 92 UK catalog scans, but he never put it on his site yet.

[xenophobe]

Yeah, I guess a Kip Winger is neck-thru and a double cutaway.

[amimbari]

yep.. I had a couple Futuras and ended up with the only lefty Futura I have seen for a long time.

Y'know I thought something was odd about that when I mentioned it, but couldn't quite put my finger on it.

Anyhoo, the Charvel version was known as the Fusion V. The Phil Collen Archtop body shoulda clued me in, but WTF, it's been a long week for me

[amimbari]

no honey, I'm not gonna give you a back rub.
Anyway, mine is not a Fusion, it is a flattop with the eliminator knob style, the fusions had 4 knobs in a diamond and the front jack. the only commonality is the Barden dualrails and neck. The Japs may have had another name for the unit? I never saw another one...who knows....the UK Jackson Eliminator5 still has the body ridge like the charvel import eliminator4's and the same knob layout.

heres the fusion5

Thanks for that (UK) catalog scan Amimbari ! Although there's no picture of a Jackson Prof. Eliminator V in Henrik's scans,
it is listed in the 1992 color chart:



Here's mine:
