General

The Jazz Bass first made its mark on the music world during the 1960's and this Fender bass model has been popular ever since. This affordable Classic Series version is sure to leave quite an impression on you too! While it's much cheaper than a genuine American Custom Shop model, it still has essential original-style characteristics like a thin C-profile neck for optimal playing comfort. The 7.25-inch fretboard radius with 20 vintage frets are other features that give this vintage-style solid-body its classic feel and look.

Classic Series '60s Jazz Bass PF: authentic, vintage styling

The modern hardware and electronics have been designed to fit right in with this bass guitar's '60s look. The traditional-style fixed bridge, for instance, has four separate saddles and the open-gear machine heads are reversed. In fact, they're exactly the same American Vintage Reverse Open-Gear Bass machine heads that you normally find on more expensive bass models. There are two Standard Vintage Alnico Magnet Single-Coil Jazz Bass pickups, each with its own volume control and a tone potentiometer that is shared between them. Whether you play Soul, R&B or '60s Rock, the pickups ensure an authentic bass sound. The fretboard is made of pau ferro, a wood type which is quite similar to rosewood in terms of looks and sound.
