First introduced as the Jazz Bass* for the 1990s, the Sonus has evolved into one of Zon's most popular new models. Designed with traditional styling, the Sonus achieves a perfect balance of classic characteristics.
The tonal qualities of the select ash body give the Sonus incredible warmth and personality, with dynamic punch and clarity. Its two-octave, bolt-on neck is tapered and shaped to feel like a vintage Jazz Bass neck. The superior playing response of our neck provides increased sustain and rich harmonics with no dead spots, while offering superior stability. Linear single-coil pickups are wound to reproduce the classic Jazz sound, while custom electronics provide the player with independent pickup volumes, bass, and treble controls.
The matt finish lets the Quilted maple top shine.
