The Fender Road Worn “60s Jazz Bass wears its history as a game-changing electric bass on its sleeve-or its neck. All the sound and feel that made it famous is here, complimented by a beautiful, nitro-cellulose lacquer Road Worn finish. A maple neck with a “C” profile, 7.5″-radius Pau Ferro fingerboard, 20 vintage-style frets, dual vintage-style single-coil Jazz Bass pickups, vintage-style four saddle bridge and a tortoiseshell pickguard-everything you expect and love about the classic Jazz Bass to create your own history.
About Fender Road Worn Series:
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.
Those of us who love vintage understand the beauty of history and the instruments that bear theirs with pride. All the licks, lumps, and luster of time are boldly brandished as a catalog of a life hard-lived and shows hard-played. The Fender Road Worn Series honors these guitars with lovingly reliced models representing iconic decades in Fender’s history.
