General

If you already have those trickier riffs down and you're on the lookout for an instrument to match your level, the Fender Jazz Player Bass PF might just be the challenge you're looking for! This passive J Bass is built in the Fender factory in Ensenada and as such, you know you're getting a high quality instrument that won't leave you out of pocket. The neck profile is a modern C shape and is finished in the luxurious satin-gloss found on the necks of it's American siblings. The pau ferro fretboard lends a darker tone and a light roundness to the overall sound.

Player Jazz Bass PF: brightness with a bit of punch

As soon as you jack it into your amp, you're aware that this Fender Jazz Player is going to be a big step further. Naturally, you have the Mexican standard pair of single-coils but on the Player, they have been upgraded to house the Alnico 5 magnetic cores. As such, the bass and treble shine through and the tone is rounded off by a light scooping middle. The strength of the output is striking as a result, as it assures you that even on stage, your carefully crafted sound will punch through the mix.
