Aguilar’s more modern offering in the Jazz shape has a very even tone. There is a nice focus in the low mids, and a general warmth that most players will find pleasant. We enjoyed the sweet spot of the 50/50 neck/bridge blend quite a bit while testing. Bridge pickup stays even and doesn’t get snarky like some bridge pickups can.
Put on a good set of headphones and check out the audio demo below to hear it for yourself.
