By boosting these sufficiently, the 500 Hz range feels relatively lower.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe passive tone control combined with this plays a major role.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy using the passive tone control to suppress the high frequencies before the pickup passes through the active circuit, we create the strong high-mid sound that only a passive pickup can produce. This is purely for the purpose of enhancing the high-mid sound, and any excess or deficiency in the high frequencies is corrected by the EQ.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe sound of the MJ-5 was completed by utilizing pickups, preamps, and passive tones designed with a clear concept in mind.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe JIENIE MJ-5 embodies the thickness and attack of a passive JB, the strength of the low and high frequencies typical of a JB, and the treble texture of a 4-string bass, despite being a 5-string.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSPECS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBody: Alder\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eNeck: Maple 1-Piece\u003cbr\u003eScale: 34 inches\u003cbr\u003eNut width: 46mm\u003cbr\u003eNut: Bone\u003cbr\u003eFret: 21F (214)\u003cbr\u003eBridge: HIPSHOT Style B Alumi 18mm P\u003cbr\u003eTuning machine: HIPSHOT Ultralite 1\/2\u003cbr\u003ePickups: Delano JIENIE custom single coil\u003cbr\u003ePreamp: JIENIE 2-Band EQ boost\u003cbr\u003eControls: Neck PU Volume, Bridge PU Volume, Passive Tone (Push\/Pull - Preamp on\/off), Treble Boost, Bass Boost\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis guitar will be tuned by GIB craftsmen for optimal playability before delivery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAccessories: ROSIE Ultralight Bass Guitar Case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eText: Shunsuke Saga\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e◯ About the GIB and TONIQ Warranty\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e● Lifetime Free Maintenance\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstruments purchased from our store are eligible for a lifetime free \"string vibration setup\" (normally ¥4,400).
