The H. Jimenez LBS4 electric bass guitar combines premium tonewoods with versatile electronics to deliver professional performance at an accessible price point. This four-string bass features a striking walnut top over an ash body, dual soapbar pickups with active/passive switching, and a comfortable 24-fret wenge neck. Intermediate to advanced bassists seeking a dependable instrument with flexible tonal options and distinctive visual appeal will find the LBS4 ideally suited for studio recording and live performance.
Product Overview
The LBS4 showcases premium construction with a walnut top layered over a resonant ash body, creating a foundation for rich, articulate bass tones. The flat-top design incorporates thoughtful body bevels that enhance playing comfort during extended sessions, while the exaggerated cutaways provide unrestricted access to all 24 frets. This ergonomic design philosophy makes the LBS4 equally comfortable for laying down solid eighth-note grooves and exploring melodic upper-register fills.
The bolt-on wenge neck features a smooth gloss finish that facilitates effortless hand movement across the entire fingerboard. Wenge's natural density and rigidity contribute to excellent sustain and note definition, while the Daystar inlays provide elegant visual markers against the rich, dark fretboard. The 1.496-inch nut width offers comfortable string spacing that accommodates various playing techniques from fingerstyle to slap.
H. Jimenez equipped the LBS4 with dual soapbar pickups and an innovative active/passive EQ mini switch, providing exceptional tonal versatility. The active mode delivers modern clarity with enhanced output and extended frequency response, while passive mode offers vintage warmth and organic dynamics. String-through-body construction maximizes vibrational transfer for improved sustain and resonance, while the NuBone nut ensures accurate intonation and consistent open-string tone.

- Studio session players needing flexible electronics for diverse recording applications
- Church and worship musicians seeking reliable bass with professional tone-shaping capabilities

Key Features
Premium Tonewood Construction
The walnut top over ash body combination delivers balanced acoustic properties with clear midrange definition and solid low-end response. Ash provides the fundamental bass punch and sustain, while the walnut top adds warmth and visual beauty with its distinctive grain patterns and natural finish.
Active/Passive Electronics System
The innovative mini switch allows instant toggling between active and passive modes, giving you two distinct bass voices in one instrument. Active mode provides hot output with enhanced clarity for cutting through dense mixes, while passive mode delivers traditional warmth and dynamic response for vintage-inspired tones.
Extended 24-Fret Range
The full two-octave fingerboard opens up melodic possibilities beyond standard bass register, allowing you to explore chordal voicings, harmonics, and lead bass lines. The deep cutaways ensure comfortable hand positioning even at the highest frets, making advanced techniques accessible and natural.
Wenge Neck and Fingerboard
Wenge's exceptional hardness and natural oil content create a fast-playing surface that develops a smooth, broken-in feel over time. This premium tonewood contributes excellent sustain, clear note articulation, and natural resistance to humidity changes, ensuring stable performance across varying environments.
String-Through-Body Design
Routing strings through the body rather than anchoring at the bridge maximizes string tension and vibrational energy transfer to the instrument's resonant chambers. This construction method enhances sustain, improves intonation stability, and contributes to the LBS4's authoritative, full-bodied tone.
