Updated bridge and new Fender design tuners modernize this classic!
The Fender American Standard Series Jazz Bass has a vintage body radius and contour for a classic vibe
and feel. The Jazz Bass's body is rendered in premium alder for optimum tone and sustain. Its rosewood or maple fretboard
features detailed nut and fretwork. The neck is graphite-reinforced and has rolled edges for a broken-in feel from the get-go.
HMV (High Mass Vintage) Bridge increases sustain, provides punchier tone, beefier looking plates and 3/8" diameter vintage
saddles. String height adjustment screws have nylon patches for a tight fit that won't vibrate loose.
A 12-gauge cold
rolled steel plate machined brass backstop increases mass and enhances top end. Socket head intonation screws are engineered
for a tighter fit, and are now more stable. The J Bass features Fender®/Hipshot® tuning keys. They work great, and
are 30% lighter, minimizing neck dip. Classic 20:1 tuning ratio, cast zinc with aluminum string posts and mounting nuts, and
steel clovers. Brass worm gears, steel worm drives.
With a thinner undercoat, the Fender Jazz Bass body breathes easier
and has improved sound (more wood influence). Neck pocket paint buildup has been reduced by 40%, greatly improving the wood-to-wood
connection/reaction.
The included SKB rectangular design case, exclusive to Fender, has TSA recognized and accepted
locks. Fiberglass reinforced nylon trigger release latching system, indestructible cushioned rubber over-molded handle with
flush lock out. Injection molded feet and exclusive arched stacking system.
