Find the funk with this beautiful update of a classic

The Fender Jazz Bass seemed perfectly matched to the players of the 1970s — fast, flashy and cutting. From concert stages to recording studios, the J-Bass was at the forefront of bass exploration. Fender's American Original '70s Jazz Bass brings back that sound and vibe, and a modern fingerboard radius for easier playing. With vintage tall frets for snappy slapping, period-correct pickups and vintage-style hardware, you'll find your funky groove with this beautiful bass.

Features

Solid ash body with gloss urethane finish
Slim, fast 34" scale maple on maple neck with vintage tall frets
