As the bass player for the newly reunited My Chemical Romance, Mikey Way is renowned for his fervent playing, unique style, and ability to traverse various genres. His influence spans emo, punk rock, and much more. The Mikey Way Jazz Bass® exemplifies a daring design paired with resonant tones, making it an instrument that cannot be ignored.
This bass showcases an alder body with a striking silver sparkle finish. Its elegant maple neck, accentuated with black binding, block inlays, and a glossy black-painted headstock, is a visual delight. But the Mikey Way Jazz Bass isn't just about aesthetics; it’s designed for powerful sound and adaptability. Equipped with a duo of vintage-inspired ’70s single-coil Jazz Bass pickups, it captures the iconic sounds that marked a monumental period in rock. The bass features a ’70s “C”-shaped maple neck, making it a breeze to navigate for swift licks and intense performances. Additional attributes include a vintage-styled 4-saddle bridge, ’70s inspired “Fender” stamped tuners, a “Bullet” style truss rod nut, and Mikey's autograph on the headstock's reverse side.
Representing Way’s innovative vision, the Mikey Way signature Jazz Bass stands out both audibly and visually. Whether you're a devoted My Chemical Romance admirer or a bassist seeking an exceptional instrument, the Mikey Way Jazz Bass is the ultimate choice to elevate your musical journey.
