Custom Fender American Professional Jazz Bass LH RW - Black

Speedy, powerful and articulate, the Jazz Bass quickly carved out a niche for itself when it was released in 1960. The slim, ultra-fast neck and slick offset-waist styling made it a favorite of bassists everywhere. Funk, fusion, disco and, of course, modern rock all owe a life debt to the fantastically versatile Jazz Bass. The best of yesterday and today, the American Professional Jazz Bass is the latest form of electric inspiration from Fender. Step up and stake your claim to a legend.

New Pickups
V-Mod Jazz Bass pickups are modified versions of our classic vintage pickup designs. Packed with the fundamental Fender bass sound you know and love, these single-coil pickups crank out high-output tone with vintage warmth and the crisp, clear sound that made Fender a legend.

Slim "Modern C" Neck Profile
This instrument features a modern neck designed for comfort and performance, with a slim, modern "C"-shaped profile (the shape of the neck in cross section), 9.5" fingerboard radius and narrow-tall frets.

Narrow-Tall Frets
Narrow-tall frets are taller and narrower than their medium jumbo cousins, making them especially effective for bending notes and playing chords up the neck with perfect intonation.

HiMass Vintage Bridge
Channel the early days of Fender in a thoroughly modern instrument thanks to the vintage-style HiMass bass bridge with single-groove saddles, offering an authentic vintage look with plenty of stability and sustain.

New Fluted Tuners
Wider at the top than the bottom, the fluted shafts force the string windings downward and keep them tight, resulting in a sharper and consistent break angle over the nut, creating increased sustain and better tuning stability.

PosiFlex Graphite Rods
All American Professional bass necks incorporate PosiFlex graphite rods to reinforce against movement that can occur with fluctuations in the environment. Embedded beneath the fingerboard, they improve reliability on the road, in the studio or in your home.

Hardshell Case
The Elite Molded Case features body-hugging contours to protect your cherished instrument, TSA latches for increased security and nested stacking ability for easy storage and secure transport
