SX SWB1/6 Natural 6-strängad basgitarr

SX SWB1 6 NA — Active 6-String Bass with All-Mahogany Construction

The SX SWB1 6 NA is a 6-string electric bass guitar built for players who want extended range without sacrificing tonal warmth. An all-mahogany body and neck deliver the deep, resonant character that defines the SWB1 series, while active electronics and an HS pickup configuration provide the flexibility to cover rock, metal, funk, and jazz from a single instrument. The 864 mm scale length ensures clear low-B response on the bottom string without sacrificing upper-string articulation.

What sets this bass apart

What makes this model stand out is the combination of a genuine bone nut, a dual-action truss rod, and an active preamp with dedicated Treble and Bass EQ — features rarely found together at this price tier. The arched mahogany top adds structural rigidity that enhances sustain, while gold-plated die-cast tuners and a matching bridge deliver both visual appeal and tuning stability through aggressive playing sessions.

Mahogany Body and Neck — Warmth and Sustain

Mahogany forms the tonal foundation of this instrument, used for both the body and neck to create a cohesive voice across the entire bass. The dense wood produces a warm, full tone with rich bass response and strong midrange character, while the arched top adds rigidity that enhances sustain. The set-neck construction method maximises resonance transfer between the neck and body.

• The body is crafted from mahogany, providing a warm, full tone with rich bass and strong mids.
• Top Material: Mahogany — arched design adds rigidity and sustain
• Neck Material: Mahogany — excellent strength and resonance
• Construction: Set Neck — maximises tone transfer between neck and body

Active HS Pickup Configuration — Tonal Flexibility

Active electronics open up a wider tonal range than passive designs, with dedicated Treble and Bass controls for precise shaping. The HS configuration pairs a bridge humbucker for thick, powerful tones with a middle single coil for brighter, more articulate sounds. The Balance knob blends the two pickups seamlessly, while the Volume control manages overall output level.

• Pickup Configuration: HS (Humbucker + Single Coil) — broad tonal range from thick to bright
• Bridge Pickup: Humbucker — powerful, full tone for rock and metal
• Middle Pickup: Single Coil — bright, crisp response for slap and funk
• Preamp: Active with Treble, Bass, Volume, and Balance controls — precise tone shaping

Gold Hardware and Extended-Range Playability

Gold-plated die-cast tuners and a matching bridge hold tuning steady through long sets. The 864 mm scale length provides the tension needed for clear definition across all six strings, while a 305 mm fingerboard radius and medium frets offer a comfortable surface for both fingerstyle and pick techniques.

• Scale Length: 864 mm — standard for 6-string basses, clear low-B response
• Fingerboard Radius: 305 mm (12") — comfortable for both flat and curved playing styles
• Nut Width: 52 mm — accommodates six strings with comfortable spacing
• Number of Frets: 24 — extended range for upper-register playing
• Hardware: Gold-plated die-cast tuners and bridge — reliable tuning stability
