From aspiring kids just starting out on bass to seasoned low-end players looking for a fun and easy-travelling instrument, the new Jackson JS Series Concert Bass Minion JS1XM packs thunderous tone and plenty of slick features.
Offering a shortened 28.6" scale length, the Concert Bass Minion JS1XM has a poplar body, bolt-on maple neck with graphite reinforcement rods and a 12" radius maple fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets and sharkfin inlays.
Plenty of balanced, deep tone radiates from a Jackson P style neck pickup, while a Jackson J style bridge pickup works double-time by eliminating hum and delivering punchy tone note after note. Customise this instruments voice with a pair of volume knobs and a single tone knob, and enjoy greater note sustain from the hardtail bridge with black base plate.
Boasting diverse low-end tone, classic Jackson style and an unbelievably affordable price tag, this four-string Minion bass comes in an all-new Snow White finish with black hardware and pointy headstock.

28.6" SHORT SCALE LENGTH
As opposed to our full-size, four-string Concert Bass (34” scale), the Minion Concert Bass features a shorter 28.6” scale length, ideal for children, young adults or petite adults who benefit from a more comfortable body size and frets placed closer together. A shorter scale length also favours “warmth” or more muddy overtones.
PJ PICKUP CONFIGURATION
The P-style neck and J-style bridge pickups combine for a sonically full voice. Harness the classic and authoritative thump of a Precision Bass, along with the hard-hitting growl of a Jazz Bass.
