This awesome Active PJ Bass was built in 2010 by Overwater Basses, under a 5 year licencing agreement with Tanglewood Guitars. Featuring a Poplar body, Maple neck, Maple fingerboard and Active EMG X Pickups this one has a really sweet aesthetic and an even sweeter tone.
As a PJ Bass its very versatile with the best of both worlds from P Type and J Type Pickup Configurations, allowing this bass to go from Slap to Blues to Jazz to Metal to anything you wish while still sounding great.
Originally this bass was J Type with no pick-guard, the previous owner upgraded to an EMG PJX set and added the pick-guard.
From EMG on the PJX set..
“The EMG PJX Set provides bass players flexibility and a wide range of tonal combinations with the added headroom and dynamic response of the X series preamp. EMG’s PX adds warmth, and incredible low end punch, while the LJX provides a tight mid-range with dynamic high end response for a well defined attack. These pickups are low noise and offer tones ranging from tight slap funk, rock, to smooth Motown grooves. With EMG’s solderless wiring harness included, the PJX Set is easy to install at home.
The X series preamp gives the pickup a more dynamic range along with increased headroom while keeping the more traditional string-to-string balance. X series pickups also come with an Active Tone Control (VLPF) designed to roll-off (attenuate) high frequencies, similar to a typical passive tone control. The result is a noiseless single coil guitar pickup with a classic EMG sound that bridges the gap between active and passive.”
