Simple and effective electronics
Jazz basses boast a 2-pickup setup, allowing you to achieve diverse tonal variation. The single-coil pickups and the bass's 3-knob setup have been responsible for a wide array of some of the most legendary bass tones in history. These Pure Vintage ’64 Jazz Bass pickups are truly period-correct with enamel-coated coil, cloth-covered output wires, and Alnico 5 magnets. The sound these pickups put out ranges from a deep growl to a punchy midrange — a beautiful sonic combination that is the foundation of Fender Jazz Bass tone. Jazz, funk, rock, fusion — this bass can cover it all.






One of the best neck designs, ever
Ask any bassist who has spent time with the slim ’60s C-shaped maple neck profile on a Fender Jazz Bass, and you will hear a string of descriptors ranging from incredibly fast and silky to awesome and one-of-a-kind. With a nut width of just 1.5" and a luxuriously bound, 9.5"-radius ebony fingerboard with vintage-tall frets, this neck sits beautifully in the hands and features a touch and response dynamic that opens wide the doors of stylistic exploration.




Nitro finish, for the look and feel of a classic
The Fender Rarities Flame Ash Top Jazz Bass wears a gorgeous vintage-style nitrocellulose lacquer finish. Lacquer finishes — standard back in the day — are significantly thinner than today's polyurethane finishes, allowing the guitar to "breathe." Nitro finishes not only look amazing; they also enhance the instrument's tonal qualities. This bass delivers the look, feel, and sound of a lovingly cared-for classic — one that will only improve with age.
