Offering a very traditional take on the Jazz Bass at a price that appeals to both beginners and crafty veterans alike, the Fender Player Jazz Bass is everything you want from the celebrated instrument. The “Modern C”-shape neck with 9.5″-radius fingerboard is the only modification to the classic design, which features an alder body with gloss finish, two Player Series single-coil pickups and standard control set.
Founded by Leo Fender in 1938 as Fender’s Radio Service, what is now the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation began making electric guitars and amplifiers in 1945. The rest, as they say, is history. Creator of the world’s first mass-produced, and by far most popular, solid-bodied electric, Fender is now the world’s leading guitar manufacturer. Replacing the now-discontinued Standard series, the Fender Player Series honors the core Fender classics with quality construction, vintage-inspired finishes, select modern updates, and friendly price points that appeal to a range of aspiring and experienced players.
