reputation as a workhorse bass guitar with professional, semi-professional and bass players around the world who just love its defined sound and playability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSolid alder is the perfect choice for the body, not only to support the solid construction, but for this popular tonewood’s ability to distribute an equally fine balance of high, mid and low frequencies, delivered uncoloured to a pair of Wilkinson WOJB single coil pickups which enhance this tight, piano-like tone, with extended clarity and articulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePair alder with the VJ74’s bolt-on, hard rock maple neck and you know you just can’t go wrong for rocky-blues bass, or, just wind the tone control back a tad and enter a whole new world of jazzy, mellow soothing bass lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSmooth open-geared Wilkinson machine heads and a friction-free white graphite precision cut nut, ensure tuning stability, while the Wilkinson four-saddle, compensated brass bridge, increases sustain and improves string intonation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe sonic versatility of this classic bass design has proven itself over the years as the perfect bass for practically any style of music and, with its characteristic narrow neck design and medium weight tonewood construction, playing a 2 hour gig is just not a problem.    \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp
