A PASSIVE BASS FOR VINTAGE ENTHUSIASTS
The V5 is a true passive jazz bass loaded with vintage-inspired features in both tone and style. Designed for players who appreciate an authentic vintage feel, it offers the added advantage of a comfortable neck—all at an exceptional value.
ALL-VINTAGE BODY
Constructed with an alder body, a roasted maple neck featuring rolled fretboard edges, and equipped with the Marcus Vintage pickup set and bridge, this bass delivers an authentic vintage character.
ROASTED HARD MAPLE NECK
A distinctive quality of aged wood, achieved through the meticulous process known as torrefaction, in which the wood is carefully heat-treated to enhance its stability, resonance, and vintage-like tonal character.
SIMPLE PASSIVE CONTROLS
Enable players to easily shape and add their personal touch to the classic vintage jazz tone.
V5 CONTROL LAYOUT
Connect the instrument cable to the output jack to send the signal from the instrument to an amplifier, audio interface, or other external equipment.
2. Master Tone
Turn the knob one direction to reduce high frequencies for a warmer, darker tone.
Turn the knob the opposite direction to keep more high frequencies for a brighter, clearer tone.
3. Volume for Bridge Pickup
This knob controls the output level of the bridge pickup.
Turn the knob up to increase the bridge pickup volume.
Turn it down to decrease the bridge pickup volume.
When turned fully down, the bridge pickup will be muted.
This knob controls the output level of the neck pickup.
Turn the knob up to increase the neck pickup volume.
Turn it down to decrease the neck pickup volume.

Basic Use
For a balanced sound, turn both pickup volume knobs fully up.

Pickup Volume or reduce the Neck Pickup Volume.
To emphasize a warmer and fuller tone, increase the Neck Pickup Volume or reduce the Bridge Pickup Volume.
