General

This Jazz Bass excellently unites past and present. The Fender Vintage Hot Rod '70s Jazz Bass is a premium instrument with a Candy Apple Red, nitrocellulose lacquer finish, just like in the past. A team of strong PJ pickups provides endless tonal possibilities and all-round versatility. The playing comfort of this Jazz Bass leaves nothing to be desired, due in part to the U-profile neck and compound fretboard radius that allow for effortless playing (and bending) across the entire fret range. The Fender

Vintage Hot Rod '70s Jazz Bass

The powerful sound of this bass guitar is brought forth by a duo of premium pickups: an American Vintage '74 Jazz bass single coil in the bridge position and an American Vintage '63 P-Bass split single coil in the middle position. From old-school funk to modern rock, this bass will provide you and your bandmates with a rock-solid bass foundation that you control at all times using the master tone and both volume controls. Naturally, it has the familiar Jazz Bass style.

Construction

This guitar has a highly rugged construction. Its neck is fitted with graphite support rods so that this Hot Rod will never budge, even when played hard. The A string has a stealth string guide so that it will stay in position perfectly. The ultra-solid Fender Hi-Mass bridge will keep a leash on tone and tuning. This '70s Jazz Bass comes with a case, a chromed pickup cover, a cable, a thumb rest, a leather guitar strap and strap locks.
