Roasted maple neck, rosewood fretboard including stainless steel binding
The body is crafted from a mahogany and alder blend with a high-gloss finish. The Custom JB comes in exotic colors ranging from sunburst and paisley over-color variants to various aged looks. The bolt-on neck made of roasted maple feels extremely comfortable thanks to its modern C profile and is designed for fast, dynamic playing. The oiled surface of the roasted maple neck adds extra comfort, ensuring a smooth playing experience even during long sessions. The rosewood fingerboard with 21 stainless steel jumbo frets, classic block inlays and a 13.75 inch radius supports both precise bass lines in the lower registers and effortless riffs in the higher registers. With a long 34 inch scale length, the Custom JB offers ideal string tension for tight, responsive playing.
The two Fame single coils deliver a crisp response, while the sound can be flexibly shaped in active mode thanks to the 3-band EQ.
Fame single coils, active Preamp with 3-band EQ and active/passive mini-switch
The sound of the Fame Custom JB offers a modern take on the vintage J-style tone. Two Fame single coils in the middle and bridge positions deliver the classic punch, complemented by defined highs and a clear attack. The pickups can be finely adjusted via volume, balance and 3-band EQ controls for bass, mids and treble, allowing everything from classic J-style sounds to assertive rock and funk tones. A mini-switch lets you toggle between active and passive mode – in passive mode, a tone control is available to trim the treble if needed. Whether crisp slap sounds, rich low-end foundations or transparent bass lines, the Custom JB covers a wide stylistic range while maintaining a confident and dynamic presence.
