Fender Player Plus Jazz Bass Aged Candy Apple Red MN Electric Bass Guitar with Gig Bag

General

The Jazz Bass is already an undeniable classic, and the Player Series edition of the Jazz is already a classic in its own right. Upgraded, freshly painted and fully future-proofed, this is the next-gen Fender Player Plus Jazz Bass. The alder body has been finished with a high-gloss sheen and as soon as you grip the neck, your fret-hand is greeted to the fast and smooth feel of satin-gloss lacquer. While the traditional J-bass neck is renowned for its playing comfort, this edition has been given a modern C-profile coupled with a slightly flatter 12 inch fretboard radius to further ease the playability.

The Player Plus Jazz Bass: Hi-Mass bridge & Noiseless Passive Pickups

Play this bass for five minutes or less, and you're already well-aware that this is every bit a progressive Fender instrument. The trusted open-gear machine heads have been left in place but have been teamed up with the improved stability of a Hi-Mass bridge, while the mounted pair of Noiseless Player Plus J-style single-coil pickups carve out iconic Jazz Bass sound and have been perfectly balanced to ensure clear definition and presence. Using nothing more the pan-pot, you can scroll through the full spectrum of that familiar J-style passive tone.

Unprecedented Active Circuit

Nestled between two of the fitted control pots you'll find a mini-switch that can be flipped to trigger the active circuit and double the sonic palette of this J-bass. In active mode, the tone-tweaking power is immediately expanded from one pot to three pots (a dedicated bass pot and a concentric mid and treble pot) for three-band frequency adjustments and more in-depth sound shaping. And this is way more than just a perk, since it gifts the next-gen Fender Player Plus Jazz Bass with a truly flexible and far-reaching range. To keep it in mint condition, it also comes complete with a matching deluxe gig bag.
