Built to the exacting specifications of its vintage, including body contours and radii, neck shape, fingerboard radius, pickups, electronics, and hardware. Original materials, tooling, and production techniques were employed wherever possible. This Closet Classic is designed to replicate a bass that was bought new in 1964, played perhaps a dozen times a year, and then carefully put away. It has a few small "dings," lightly checked finish, oxidized hardware, and aged plastic parts. Classic alder body and maple neck wood combination with round laminate rosewood fretboard, 20 vintage-style frets, 34" scale, and 1.5" nut width. Chrome hardware including pickup guard, control plate, and "ashtray" bridge cover. Custom '60s Jazz Bass pickups crank out the gorgeous tone that made this model a classic. Comes in a brown textured vinyl-covered hard case with strap and cable. A vintage single-coil pickup halfway between the bridge and neck, 2-saddle bridge, gorgeous ash body, and one-piece maple neck and fretboard make up the killer combination that carried the low end of half the top acts of the '50s, '60s, and '70s. Amoeba pickguard, vintage chrome knobs and knob plate, stunning butterscotch blonde see-through finish, and classic narrow headstock make it look as cool as it plays.
Following its introduction in '51, the P-Bass went on to dramatically influence the way we play and hear music, impacting every genre in every decade since. The '62 Precision pays tribute to this landmark instrument as it starts its second decade. It features accurate detailing in electronics and hardware from the split single-coil pickups to the vintage tuning machines. Finished in nitrocellulose lacquer. Includes Fender deluxe hardshell case, vintage cable, and leather strap.
Updated specs for the new millennium. Classic body shape, rosewood fingerboard, standard J Bass pickups and controls, 3-ply pickguard, and chromeplated hardware. Pickups are the traditional sizes with slightly longer bridge pickup, making pickup swapping easier because no body routing is required.
Available in three finishes; black, two tone sunburst and vintage blonde First introduced in 1960 as the "Deluxe Model," the Fender Jazz Bass has stood the test of time to become one of the most played instruments in modern musical history. Many Fender firsts such as the offset waist body, ultra-slim fast-action neck, and full-range bi-pole pickups are standard features on the Standard Jazz Bass. This is an affordable update of Fender classic designs that incorporates 2 bi-pole pickups fashioned after the American Series pickups. |
