Operating the Bass
1. Controls Overview
Your American Ultra II Jazz Bass V features a sophisticated active electronics system with a 3-band EQ for precise tonal shaping. Familiarize yourself with the control layout:
- Негизги том: Controls the overall output level of the bass.
- Pan Pot (Pickup Blend): Blends between the neck and bridge pickups. Turn clockwise for more bridge pickup, counter-clockwise for more neck pickup.
- Үч ыргак башкаруу: Жогорку жыштыктарды күчөтөт же кыскартат.
- Орточо башкаруу: Boosts or cuts mid frequencies.
- Басс башкаруу: Төмөнкү жыштыктарды күчөтөт же азайтат.
- Активдүү/Пассивдүү которгуч: A push/pull pot on the volume knob allows you to switch between active (with EQ) and passive (volume and blend only) modes. In passive mode, the EQ controls are bypassed.

2. Battery for Active Electronics
The active electronics require a 9V battery, located in a compartment on the back of the bass. When the bass is not in use, unplug the instrument cable to conserve battery life. A weak battery can result in distorted sound or no sound at all.

1. Тазалоо
Regularly wipe down your bass with a soft, lint-free cloth after each use to remove sweat, oils, and dust. For the body and neck finish, use a guitar-specific polish or cleaner sparingly. For the maple fingerboard, a dry cloth is usually sufficient. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
2. Сапты алмаштыруу
Strings should be replaced periodically, depending on usage, to maintain optimal tone and playability. Replace one string at a time to maintain neck tension. Wind new strings neatly around the tuning posts, ensuring sufficient wraps for stable tuning.
