Fender American Elite Jazz Bass V Ash Tobacco Sunburst MN

General

This solid-body electric bass guitar is a 5-string Jazz Bass with a classic Tobacco Sunburst finish. While it usually comes tuned in BEADG, you could also consider adding a high C instead of the low B string. You can adjust the balance between the two Noiseless single-coils using the pan knob. Furthermore, you can even toggle the American Jazz Bass V between active and passive modes. Active mode gives you access to the boost/cut controls for the low, mid and high frequencies. Finally, it also comes with a case, a guitar strap and a cable.

American Elite Jazz Bass V Ash Tobacco Sunburst MN: comfortable compound neck

On the comfortably lightweight and richly resonant ash J-style body, you'll find a solid Fender 5-saddle HiMass Vintage bridge, which allows for longer sustain and exquisite intonation. The same focus on quality is also evident in the American Elite's compound neck, with a profile that changes from a modern C to a D, and a fretboard with a 9.5 - 14" radius. Moreover, the maple neck features a satin finish, and combined with the maple fretboard, it adds some punch and comfort to the Jazz Bass's already excellent playing experience.
