A Modernized Jazz: Vintage Spirit, Extended Range
The V5 24-4 NT MN incorporates the codes that made Jazz-style basses successful: familiar ergonomics, comfortable balance, and timeless aesthetics designed for playing. Its distinctive feature is its 24 frets, which provide a real advantage for exploring the upper neck without losing reference points. The Natural finish combined with black elements (binding, inlays, pickguard) and chrome hardware offers a sober, modern, and very "stage-ready" look.
Who Is It For, and What Styles?
This 4-string bass is aimed at serious beginners as well as intermediate players seeking a versatile instrument that is easy to set up and pleasant for daily use. The C-profile neck and 38 mm nut width facilitate quick shifts, fingerstyle playing, and precise slap. In terms of styles, it adapts very well to funk (attack and snap), jazz (nuance and definition), pop, and rock (foundation and precision), with an effective passive tone control to adjust brightness in the mix.
Sound
The North American alder body provides a very musical balance: firm lows, expressive mids, and clear highs-an ideal foundation for a Jazz-character bass. The torrefied hard maple neck and fingerboard enhance clarity and immediate response, particularly appreciated on crisp attacks, ghost notes, and articulated phrasing. The Vintage-J Revolution Set pickups deliver the expected tone: neck pickup for warm roundness, bridge pickup for more bite and definition, and both together for a scooped and very versatile sound. Thanks to the passive circuit (two volumes + master tone), you can quickly modulate character from modern snap to a more vintage smoothness while preserving the natural dynamics of your playing.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
With its 34-inch scale length, this bass is compatible with long scale bass strings (34 inches). A gauge of 45-105 is perfect to maintain the original balance between comfort and tension. A comfortable strap is also recommended for long sessions, especially considering its weight of 4.30 kg.
