The Eko PJ400 is an electric bass with timeless lines that have marked every generation of bassists since the 1950s. It has a retro look and is built with a lightweight, resonant paulownia body, combined with a maple neck. With its passive electronics consisting of 2 single-coil P and J pickups, and its 21-fret maple neck, the PJ400 bass offers the playing comfort and tonal versatility that will delight any bassist just beginning his or her musical adventure.
The timeless silhouette that inspired the PJ400's design needs no introduction: the characteristic double cutaway for excellent access to the last fret, combined with 2 single-coil pickups and a 4-bridge bridge/tailpiece block, represent a visual signature that's more than recognizable. This classic configuration has been adopted by Italian manufacturer Eko to make the PJ400 an attractive electric bass, ergonomic with its contained weight and welcoming curves, and above all highly versatile for novice bassists.
Despite its very affordable price, the PJ400's lutherie has received the utmost attention in order to offer bassists new to the instrument an attractive, well-finished bass. The body is made from paulownia, a light, robust and resonant wood providing comfort and beautiful vibrations. The sturdy, comfortable 4-point screwed maple neck is topped by an laurel fingerboard, bringing stability and warmth.
As for the electronics, the PJ400 is equipped with 2 single-coil P and J pickups with their well-known configuration, much appreciated for their great versatility. Great for clear sounds, they can also be very biting and percussive when combined with powerful distortion. To extend the sonic possibilities, a volume control for each pickup and a general tone control enable you to mix the characters of the different pickups and adjust their more or less brilliant timbre. The bridge/tailpiece block incorporates independently adjustable saddles to fine-tune the action and harmonics of each string and ensure effective sustain.
Affordable, lightweight, versatile and aesthetically pleasing with its timeless retro silhouette, the PJ400 is the ideal instrument to start playing electric bass with pleasure, without breaking the bank.
