Description
Not every gig calls for a full-scale monster, and that’s exactly where the G2220 Electromatic Junior Jet Bass II earns its keep. With a 30.3″ scale length, this thing sits comfortably against your body and lets smaller-handed players or anyone craving a faster, more relaxed feel dig in without fighting the instrument. It’s a bass that disappears into the music instead of demanding attention from your shoulder.
Under the Imperial Satin finish sits a basswood body paired with a bolt-on maple neck — a combination that keeps things light on stage while still pushing out real low-end weight. The laurel fingerboard carries a 12″ radius with 20 medium jumbo frets and simple dot inlays, so runs and slides feel natural whether you’re locked into a groove or throwing in a fill.
Tone comes from a pair of Gretsch single-coil bass pickups, switchable through a three-position toggle, with master volume and master tone giving you quick control from punchy and biting to warm and rounded. A four-saddle adjustable bridge lets you dial in intonation and action to your liking, while the synthetic bone nut and die-cast tuners keep things stable set after set.
