Product information

General

The Fender American Ultra Jazz Bass V: A 5-string bass that combines enhanced vintage sound and as-fresh-as-they-come upgrades. This bass is part of the Ultra Series and is a more than worthy successor to the former Elite and Deluxe models from Fender's California-based factory. While this bass has inherited the comfortable neck-width of a standard Fender 5-string Jazz, the neck of the Ultra has been gifted with a modern D-profile and softly rounded edges to heighten playing comfort even further.

American Ultra Jazz Bass V: Compound radius and Ultra Noiseless Pickups

The fretboard radius of this Fender bass ranges from 10-inches to a slightly flatter 14-inches and maintains tight control over rumbling lines at the lower end, while ensuring a seamless transition to more defined, melodic adventures at the higher half of the neck. This enhanced 5-String Ultra Jazz Bass is then amplified by two specially designed Noiseless pickups that retain that familiar and inspiring core sound of single-coils, without any of the annoying buzz and grumble typical of previous generations.

Double the Sound

While the pair of Noiseless single-coils offer a wide selection of tonal flavour alone, Fender have built in an extra surprise in the form of a mini-switch that flips the electronics of this J-bass from that trusted, passive vintage purr to a contemporary, preamplified growl with 3-band EQ, doubling the range of this bass. Other upgrades include a HiMass, toploader bridge and bone nut for optimum sound transmission and unerring tuning stability. This stability is strengthened by the vintage-looking but tighter-gripping tuners, that have been fitted with improved, tapered shafts for smooth and fast response when making adjustments. This Ultra comfortable, Ultra playable and Ultra dependable Jazz Bass V comes complete with its own Elite quality case.

Fender American Ultra Jazz Bass V Arctic Pearl MN with Case

Dit is echt een prachtige basgitaar. Zo warm, zo zuiver, zo'n zotte sustain. De Active optie is echt een meewaarde. Als je een Jazzbass wil waarvan je zeker bent dat alles tip top in orde is dit de bas voor jou. Hier kan je niets mis mee doen. Hij ligt zo goed in de hand, alles gaat gewoon vanzelf op deze bas. Hij kwam zelf gestemd uit de doos. Kijk gewoon naar de filmjes van Fender op youtube en als je dan denkt. Zo goed kan die niet klinken, hier hebben ze iets aan gedaan achteraf, of pedals gebruikt, dan heb je het mis. Hij klinkt zo mogelijk nog beter als in die filmpjes.
