The short-scale J-bass on “Sweet Sounds of Heaven.”
A short scale with a full voice, built for the Stones stage.
The Mach II DJZ is a short-scale J-type bass with two single-coil pickups. It is powerful and articulate, with a mid-range punch that cuts through a big band.
Darryl plays this model when the Rolling Stones perform “Sweet Sounds of Heaven.” The short scale keeps it fast under the hand without giving up the low end.
Every Mach II DJZ starts as a Professional and can be built up. Prices are starting points; your final quote depends on the options you choose.
