General

Any serious left-handed bass player would be chuffed to bits with this black Fender Jazz Bass from the American Standard series. This four-string electric bass guitar has all the right vintage looks and sounds but offers you the advantages of a modern bass guitar. It features a lightweight alder body with a comfortable maple neck that is narrower than that of the Precision Bass, making it easier to play for bass players with smaller hands. Also, it is highly versatile thanks to its two Custom Shop '60s pickups with their authentic sound. This bass guitar comes with a rugged SKB case and Fender accessories.

American Standard Jazz Bass LH: innovations

This left-handed American Standard Jazz Bass features some progressive innovations like, for instance, two Posiflex graphite neck support rods, making the neck stronger and more stable than ever before, ensuring a dead-straight neck regardless of moisture or temperature changes. Also, the bridge and machine heads have undergone a modern upgrade, while retaining their classic looks. The High Mass Vintage bridge is heavier, providing more tone and longer sustain. The Hipshot tuners, however, are 30% lighter than their predecessors, allowing for a better-balanced instrument so you'll no longer be bothered by a 'diving' neck.

Custom Shop pickups for that famous J-Bass sound

Fender has equipped the American Standard Jazz Bass LH with Custom Shop '60s pickups. These two alnico 5 single coils provide that classic Jazz Bass sound, but with a dash more output for punchier mids and basses. Both pickups have their own volume control and the master tone will filter out the trebles. You can create a wide range of bass sounds by blending the two volumes, from a fierce bright tone, that'll cut through the mix excellently, to a warm, sultry jazz sound. All in all, this is a versatile bass guitar suitable for virtually any genre whether you like to slap, fingerpick, or go all out with a pick.
