Three Band EQ (high, mid, low) boost & cut. Center position produces flat, unaltered sound, with no added tonal coloration.
* Mini Toggle Switch - Use the Switch closer to the headstock to switch the mid-frequencies (400Hz/800Hz), and the other Switch to switch the treble-frequencies (6Hz/12kHz).
* Pre-set gain control to boost gain by one to three times (located in back panel for easy access).
* 18V drive is for more headroom, which allows incoming signals to pass through cleanly, without clipping the high-end or low-end frequencies. (Requires two 9V batteries)

TUNERS

Trusted for its quality and precision, we use the Hipshot Ultralite for the machine heads. They are durable and lightweight, which helps for longevity and prevents head dive.

FRET

Jescar Fret Wire is an industry standard fret wire that is chosen for its high quality. It is trusted for its superior precision and durability by makers such as Gibson, Martin and Tom Anderson. The FW9665 model used for the XPJ series, has proper height and trusted stability in pitch.

PICKUPS

2 coil bobbins for 1~2 string and 3~4 string are configured to cancel the hum noise like P-Bass.
Its rear pickup is the same one used on XJ-1T which is a XOTiC original pickup. This pickup has a similar sound of Lindy Fralin but also has a stronger magnetic power than Lindy resulting a much better picking response.

BRIDGE

The XPJ series use Hipshot A-Style bridges because its brass alloy does not insulate vibrations from the strings, giving it fat and solid tone. This bridge provides adjustments to the pitch and tension of each string allowing for a custom setup.

PREAMP

The Xotic Bass preamp is modern feat of engineering with its tiny size and huge sound. Along with two volumes (discrete controls of P&J pickups), tone control (push/pull for active and passive) Mid/Treble frequency selector and 20db of boost, this 3-band EQ allows the player to shape its tone anyway he or she likes.
