Midnight Blue Redemption: Silvertone J-Type Bass (Shockingly Good Edition)

This Silvertone J-style bass came to us a little… rough around the edges. OK, more than a little. But after some serious TLC, it’s emerged as a legit sleeper bass that punches way above its price point.

Originally from somewhere in the early 2000s (give or take — Silvertone gonna Silvertone), this lightweight groove machine has been fully brought back from the brink and is now ready for stage, studio, or couch-funk duty.

What we did (so you don’t have to):

• Thorough deep clean, inside and out

• Fingerboard issue corrected and stabilized

• Brand new electronics: CTS pots & Switchcraft output jack

• Fresh set of Rotosound strings

• Full professional setup — plays smooth and easy

Why you’ll dig it:

• Classic J-style tones: punchy, articulate, and surprisingly warm

• Ridiculously light at just 6.3 lbs — your shoulder will thank you

• Slim, comfortable neck that begs for long sessions

• Midnight blue finish that looks way cooler than it has any right to

This is one of those basses that makes you say, “Wait… why does this sound this good?”
Perfect for players who want solid tone, low weight, and zero snob tax.

Come plug it in — this one’s got a second life, and it’s grooving hard.
