Fender Modern Player Jazz Bass V Satin Black 5-string

General

The Fender Modern Player Jazz Bass V (Satin Black) is a 5-string bass guitar. This is the famous J-Bass model (with its distinctive shape and characteristically tight and resonant sound) in black and fitted with a contrasting pale maple fretboard and a fifth string. The attractively priced, contemporary Modern Player series has been equipped with some extra appealing features such as two humbuckers instead of single-coil pickups.

Modern Player Jazz Bass V: 5 strings and 2 humbuckers

The vibrations of the 5 strings richly resonate through the alder body and are then sent to the amplifier by a duo of humbucker pickups. Combined with a 4-position rotary knob and two volume controls, these pickups produce both the original Jazz Bass sound as well as the rougher, deeper sounds suitable for metal and rock, for instance. All in all, this is an attractive, versatile guitar.

Modern Player guitars and bass guitars

The Modern Player is a series that builds on the affordable 'my-first-Fender' tradition, and because these are genuine Fender guitars and bass guitars, you can count on a reliable performance, an excellent sound and a classic look. The Modern Player series combines these aspects with modern electronic features and unexpected variations of wood types. They are comfortable instruments to play, with a C-shape neck and a relatively flat 9.5-inch fretboard radius.
