General

As part of their Japan Exclusive series, Fender releases the Classic '60s Jazz Bass RW in three CIJ colours. This particular electric solid-body bass guitar, for instance, boasts a luscious Ocean Turquoise Metallic high-gloss lacquer finish, and combines the legendary amplified Fender sound with the classic feel of a sixties J Bass's slim C profile neck with a 7.25" fretboard radius. A vintage-style Fender bridge with four bridge saddles allows for accurate intonation.

Classic '60s Jazz Bass RW: timeless J Bass sound

This Jazz Bass's rosewood fretboard is attached to a maple neck, which in turn is bolted onto a basswood body by means of four screws. This construction provides the sixties Fender bass guitar with a full, balanced core sound with well-toned mids and a creamy, rounded punch in the trebles. A set of vintage-style Fender Jazz Bass single-coil pickups ensures that the harmonic overtones and mid range are clearly audible. Finally, two tone knobs and a master volume knob give you full control over the timeless output of this metallic solid-body J Bass.

Fender Japan bass guitars

Japanese Fenders - in this case made by the Dyna Gakki factory - are high-end instruments that were originally never meant to travel abroad. Thanks to their vintage design, modern innovations and high-quality finish, these hand-made bass guitars are highly coveted all over the world. They offer the same build quality as their professional Fender American Standard counterparts at a very reasonable price.
