Fender 60th Anniversary Jazz Bass - Arctic Pearl with Rosewood Fingerboard

Limited-release 60th Anniversary J Bass
The Fender 60th Anniversary Jazz Bass celebrates the legendary electric bass guitar’s birthday with style. Built around a lightweight, comfortably offset alder body, this limited-release J Bass is jam-packed with player-pleasing features. A duo of Pure Vintage ’62 single-coil pickups serve up bell-like highs, musical lows, and they growl like it’s nobody’s business. Plus, concentric knobs provide fine control over your sound. The 60th Anniversary Jazz Bass feels great, too, thanks to its relaxed U-shaped neck and easy-playing bound rosewood fingerboard. You’ll appreciate this J Bass’s finer details, which include a smooth lacquer finish, attention-grabbing tortoiseshell pickguard, and eye-catching matching headstock. This J Bass is armed with a rock-solid 4-saddle vintage-style with threaded steel saddles and reliable Pure Vintage reverse open-gear tuners, and it includes a deluxe vintage-style case with 60th anniversary embroidery and certificate of authenticity.

Pure Vintage ’62 pickups deliver classic J Bass tones
The Fender 60th Anniversary Jazz Bass boasts a pair of Pure Vintage ’62 pickups. These single-coil bass guitar pickups exhibit the bell-clear highs and deep musical low end that the J Bass is famous for. Thanks to its brighter tone, the Jazz Bass was tailor-made for fingerstyle and slap playing techniques. This limited-edition electric bass’s neck pickup delivers a round, jazz-like tone, while the bridge pickup produces a bright, cutting sound. And when you crank both pickups, you’ll experience the classic scooped growl that players like Marcus Miller and Jaco Pastorius burned into our collective consciousness. Vintage J Bass wiring with concentric knobs gives you control over the volume and tone of each pickup, so you'll always be able to quickly dial in the exact blend you want.

U-shaped neck facilitates comfort and performance
One of the things that made the J Bass an instant hit with working bass players was its unique offset-waist body shape. Perfect whether playing standing or seated, the 60th Anniversary Jazz Bass’s classic contoured body will make those marathon gigs and sessions much more comfortable. On top of that, its vintage '60 U-shaped neck is only 1.5" wide at the nut, a spec that was originally designed to appeal to jazz bassists. This electric bass guitar’s slender neck not only facilitates the fluid execution of fast, complex bass lines; it's perfect for any musical style — which is why you hear the Fender Jazz Bass in every genre of music.
