​

Bassworks' J6-24 "Daito"series of basses owe some of their inspiration to Leo Fender's bold asymmetric design in the 1960s.

​

Despite their design influences, our instruments strive to improve on what has gone before. Our chambered body being supremely light but strong and resonant.

​

The J6-24 sports a pair of Bartolini quad coil pickups. From "Jaco to Jamerson"in an instant.

​

30+ years of playing and our skilled manufacture deliver the tone, playability and reliability that all bass players deserve to enjoy in the J6-24 "Daito"series.

​
