Made in Japan Hybrid II is a series that is just right to be called a "hybrid", incorporating almighty modern specs that do not choose the player or music genre, while maintaining the vintage look. The Hybrid II Jazz Bass® V is equipped with a new hybrid II Custom Voiced Single Coil pickup with staggered pole pieces on the well-established alder body, and a sustain block under the vintage-style bridge. A vintage-style tuner, satin-finish neck, Modern "C" shape, 9.5-inch radius fingerboard and narrow tall frets provide smooth playability.
