General
The Fender American Elite Jazz Bass is at the top of the heap in terms of American bass guitars. This J-Bass has a refreshing Ocean Turquoise finish and an ebony fretboard on a maple neck, both of which are compound in keeping with the rest of the Elite series. The fretboard compound radius goes from 9.5 to 14 inches and the back of the neck has a compound radius as well that goes from a Modern C to a D as you go up the neck.
American Elite Jazz Bass: ergonomic and noiseless single-coils
The neck of this bass is joined asymmetrically to the body, and the heel is more ergonomic than ever before, allowing for better accessibility to the higher frets. The pickups on this bass have also been upgraded to two active Elite Deluxe Noiseless pickups. What hasn't changed, however, is the unmistakable sound of the Deluxe Jazz bass. This Elite J-Bass has ultra-quiet single-coils that range from deep lows to crisp highs. The improved Dual Action truss rod at the 21st fret features a spoke nut for easy adjustments. This bass comes in an original Fender Deluxe shockproof case.
