Markbass Expands MB PB and JB Bass Series with New Finishes
Markbass has expanded its entry-level bass series with new colorways for both the PB and JB models. In addition to Sky Blue and MB Yellow, the basses now come in Black, White, and Sunburst.
Each bass features a poplar body and maple neck. Markbass gives the White and Sunburst finishes a laurel fingerboard, while the Black models get a maple fingerboard. The PB features a P split-coil pickup with Volume and Tone controls. The JB is J-styled with two single-coil pickups with individual volume knobs and a passive tone control.
The new Markbass PB and JB basses retain the same $299.99 price point as the rest of the series.
