The traditional dual-volume and master tone controls provide the full range of classic Jazz Bass tones, making this instrument equally at home playing jazz, funk, rock, blues, country, or modern music.

Visually, this bass is simply stunning. The Ice Blue Metallic finish, matching painted headstock, white neck binding, and pearloid block inlays create one of the most iconic Fender aesthetics ever produced. It's a look that immediately evokes the golden era of late-'60s Fender instruments while benefiting from the precision and consistency of modern Japanese craftsmanship.

Tone & Feel

This Jazz Bass delivers everything players expect from a premium vintage-style Fender.

The vintage-style pickups provide outstanding articulation, punch, and note definition while retaining the warm, woody character that has made the Jazz Bass one of the most recorded basses in history.

The Late-'60s "U" shaped neck feels substantial yet comfortable, while the modern 9.5" radius makes playing effortless across the entire fingerboard.

At 9 lbs 2 oz, the bass feels perfectly balanced with excellent sustain and resonance.
