Fender Standard Guitarra Jazz Candy Apple Red MN

General

This electric bass guitar from Fender's Mexican Standard series is the affordable version of the legendary sixties Jazz Bass. It has the looks and sound of the original but features several modern upgrades that offer you the playing comfort of a modern Fender bass guitar. This metallic red Fender Standard Jazz Bass has a slender asymmetrical alder body with a bolt-on 20-fret one-piece maple neck that provides more sparkle and bite in the trebles than a rosewood version would.

Fender Standard Jazz Bass: vintage and modern features

The Fender Standard Jazz Bass offers you the vintage looks combined with modern upgrades. In addition to its classic Candy Apple Red colour, the three-layer off-white pickguard, the vintage-style bridge, the black Bakelite-style knobs and the '60s-style logo provide for this bass' authentic vintage looks. The two single-coil pickups have been given some more output to provide a more powerful sound. Also, all the recesses for the electronics have been shielded to prevent the detrimental 50Hz hum. Lastly, the back of the neck has a matte finish for a satin-soft feel and maximum playing comfort.

Two pickups for versatile sounds

The Jazz Bass is the Precision Bass' versatile brother. This is because it is equipped with not one, but two pickups that provide a clear sound that is rich on mids and trebles. Its bridge pickup sounds fierce and tight, while the pickup in the neck position produces warmer tones. Also, the two volume controls allow you to blend the sound of the two pickups for even more tonal variation. The tone knob lets you filter out the trebles to create a dark, sultry jazz sound. Whether you play funk, reggae, jazz and blues or rock and heavy metal, the Fender Standard Jazz Bass masters any style of music.
