FGN JMJ53-ASH-DE-M Mighty Jazz Series J Standard/Boundary Electric Bass Guitar - Made in Japan Overview:

Circle Fretting System (CFS)
All FGN guitars and basses come with a unique Circle Fretting System (CFS). It was created by FGN based on an idea to offer better pitch and articulation than conventional guitars and basses. All frets are installed on fingerboard in slightly curved shape, so that every string crosses all the frets in 90 degrees, ie to offer a minimum contact of string on a fret, and it makes the scale length of every string even while it actually varies on conventional fretting. The CFS is a solution of fretting on a traditional guitar and bass and it offers clearer articulation and tones which give dimension when you play a cord and also cut through the mix when you play single notes.

Relatively large neck pocket with 5 bolts holds a 19 mm string spacing wide neck tight and gives fat low-mid and punch. Streamlined body alongside the neck heel offers comfortable high frets access.

JMJ maple neck with an adjustable truss rod at the neck end for superior stability.

Sturdy FGBB bridge offers power and stability transmitting string vibration straight into body. It offers 2-way stringing options.

Black finish GOTOH tuners.

Combination of EMGJ & MM TW pickups with Mode Select switch offers a tonal variety. Powerful but very low noise.
