Following the amazing success of our Yellow Series basses and to satisfy many requests received for the 5-string version, we are happy to present the MB5 Yellow JB. This affordable bass features a very comfortable neck, offering the same best-in-class playability and low action as its 4-string brother. It maintains the iconic Markbass yellow finish that captures everyone's attention, and it remains budget-friendly. This model is dedicated to a wide range of players, from beginners wanting to approach a 5-string instrument to professionals looking for a reliable second instrument or workhorse for touring. The two 5-string single coil pickups make it a very versatile bass, you can blend them to access a wide variety of tones - it’s great for finger style or slap.
