The Charvel Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass JJ V is the ideal instrument for bass players seeking a blend of throwback style and modern power.

DiMarzio Pickups Provide Versatile Tone

The Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass JJ V features a DiMarzio Area J DP551 pickup in the bridge position and a DiMarzio Area J DP550 pickup in the middle, combining to deliver a balanced tone with warmth, sustain, and clarity. Whether you need an aggressive, distorted sound for rock or a smooth, rounded tone for jazz, these pickups have you covered.

Active Electronics Offer Total Control

With master volume, pickup blend, and three-band active EQ controls, the Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass JJ V places complete tonal control in your hands. Dial in anything from a punchy slap bass tone to a muted reggae-inspired sound using the bass, mid, and treble EQ knobs. A heel-mount truss rod wheel also provides easy neck relief adjustments as needed.

Caramelized Maple Neck and Fingerboard

The Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass JJ V features a super-thin caramelized maple neck and fingerboard, offering a fast playing feel and gorgeous visual appeal. Caramelized through a heating process, the maple neck and fingerboard have an amber tint and satin finish. A 12"-16" compound radius gives the fingerboard a flatter profile for smooth playability, especially during complex fingering passages and string bends.

Other premium features

An alder body, Charvel HiMass bridge, Luminlay side dots, open-gear tuners, and gold hardware round out the premium features of the Pro-Mod San Dimas Bass JJ V. Two eye-catching finishes, candy apple red and lamborghini green metallic, are available to suit your style.
