This is the fix for your tone Jones. If you know Darryl's discography, then you know he plays with some heavyweights. When he came to us looking for a new axe, we were determined to deliver an instrument that could hang with that kind of company as well. We used the opportunity to see if one of our mid-price instruments could please a world-class pro like Darryl. When he took it on stage with him during The Rolling Stones 2002 tour, that question was answered.

The Darryl Jones Signature bass looks similar to our Osborn models, but has more curve to its contouring and dramatic cutaways that add to its vintage styling. Darryl's bass is fitted with a pair of passive single coil pickups specially designed by Lakland. Three knobs control the tone: Bridge Volume, Neck Volume and Tone.

AVAILABLE WITH FIVE STRINGS!

The Darryl Jones model had graduated to a 5-string version. All the great features that made the 4-string an instant classic; comfortable down-sized contoured body, stylish bound and blocked neck, top-shelf Lakland single coil pickups, and a matching headstock. Hear it!>

The bottom line on Darryl Jones: He's played bass for Miles Davis, Sting, Madonna, The Rolling Stones and Peter Gabriel. And that's not the half
of it!

NOW AVAILABLE AS A US MODEL!

The DJ has become so popular, we're now offering it as a US version as well. Lots more colors and details!
