General

Instead of just dreaming about owning a vintage Fender, now you can buy one instead! This Mustang Bass in Vintage White is part of Fender Japan's Classic series. Other vintage features include a tortoiseshell pickguard and an aged high-gloss finish. As you'd expect from a Mustang, this is a short-scale model which produces a fuller, woolier sound and tends to be easier to play. While this bass may not be from the sixties, it is a true classic!

Mustang Bass from the Classic series

It's not just the look of this bass that is classic. The materials used in its construction are worthy of a classic model too. The body is made of alder, which produces the sort of strong, deep bass sound you'd expect from an older, more expensive model. A maple neck adds more definition to the higher tones, while the rosewood fretboard brings a touch of warmth to the proceedings. A Special Design Split Single-Coil pickup is responsible for sending a noise-free signal to your amplifier where you can expect to hear that familiar Fender bass sound.

Fender Japan

Japanese Fenders are high-end instruments that were originally exclusive to the Japanese market. These guitars are highly desirable thanks to the combination of vintage design, modern innovation and a high-quality finish. They offer the same build quality as the professional Fender American Standard models but for a more reasonable price. So if you're looking for an affordable Fender with vintage specs and a remarkable look, order yours today!

Fender Japan Mustang Bass Vintage White RW
Wrote the following about Fender Japan Mustang Bass Vintage White RW
Ik zat hier al op te azen, maar toen de zending uit Japan eindelijk binnenkwam even "low on cash" Gelukkig heeft iemand (thanks, mate!) er eentje retour gestuurd en kon ik die als B-stock bemachtigen. Lang verhaal kort: heerlijke bas. Super afgewerkt (lakwerk, fretjes, intonatie uit de doos) Heerlijke nek: niet te dik, niet te dun. Ik heb er wat dikkere (flatwound) snaren opgezet en daarvoor de nek strakker moeten zetten (moest sowieso... anders 5x* nu 4) en ja, daavoor moet de nek eraf -vintage mojo? Door de string-through brug/body bijna net zo resonant als mijn ouwe trouwe P-bass. "Well worth the wait" voor de volgende zending.
