The Fender Jazz Bass – who doesn't know it? Introduced in 1960 as an alternative to the existing Fender Prescision Bass, it quickly became a celebrity among bassists. Since its introduction, bassists of all genres have come to appreciate the rich sound and musical versatility of the Fender Jazz Bass. Whether in Rock, Country, Pop, Funk, Fusion or Disco – the versatile Fender Jazz Bass fits everywhere.
Here is an exquisite reissue of a 1964 Jazz Bass from the Fender Custom Shop. It is unbelievable how authentically the guys from the Fender Custom Shop got this "Aged Vintage White" color nuance. This is exactly what an originally white painted Fender Jazz Bass looks like, whose white color has become creamy over the decades! In combination with the tortoise-colored pickguard, this is a real eye-catcher! Just beautiful! And if you take a closer look, you'll find out that this Jazz Bass has subtle playing wear, just like a much played bass, which has been carefully watched over the years. Only smaller dongs here and there, which characterize the special character of this bass. This is exactly what defines a professional Journeyman Relic from the Fender Custom Shop.
The specs of this Fender Custom Shop were strictly based on the model from 1964. A slim, ultra-fast maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard and a body made of selected alder, together with the two Custom Shop 60s Jazz Bass pickups, form the basis for a powerful and articulated sound with plenty of dynamics. No wonder that this highly significant bass sound can be heard on thousands of recordings from the past 60 years of music history.
Come and get this fine vintage Jazz Bass! It's a purchase for life!
