Since SWING released their jazz bass models, many players have waited for active basses from SWING.
Even though we have been developing our new active bass model for some time, we had to spend longer time than expected due to our tough evaluation for our new prototype. But, finally SWING succeded in the creation of our new andinnovative active jazz basses Jazz Active and Jazz Active II after accepting a lot of opinions from top-class professional players.

Apart from its great sound, we added aesthetical value on it with Quilted Maple Top , Bird's eye maple fingerboard , Pearloid dot Inlay , and Nickel hardware . Pearl binding on its body and headstock. Shiny brass logo on the headstock is another amusement for your eyes.
SWING Jazz Deluxe II pickup set : Created to reduce noise in the active circuit and preserve its original tone at a time. We found most active circuits have a few critical topics so far. One of them is a kind of trade-off between noise reduction and tone. To solve this problem, we decided to apply a bit different waxing process for this model. The secret deserves to check.

SWING Jazz Active Preamp : As quiet as it sleeps.
Most active basses do not have the circuit which can be adjustable for both active mode and passive mode. With SWING Jazz Active Preamp, players can try to adjust tone knob for both active and passive mode. It would be another turning point to get versatileness at stages or studios.
