Fender Player II Jazz Bass Guitar, Maple Fingerboard, Coral Red

Always accessible and ready for the best tonality possible, the Fender Player II Series Jazz Bass is a key, modern example of exciting Fender innovation and style in action. Capturing so much of what made the Jazz Bass a household name, this entry to the Player II Series has just about everything to take on the instrument in full form.

Starting at its basis with an iconic double-cutaway body made of alder, this J Bass form is quickly recognizable and effortlessly playable. This choice of alder serves many purposes, yet predominantly carries a gentle weight and acts as a great sonic foundation for musical ideas to flourish. A Modern “C”-shaped maple neck joins the equation as a smooth connection to the player’s left hand. Across the palm, this neck wood and profile are effortless and slick for quick trips from higher to lower registers. A maple fingerboard meets up with this neck and measures with a 9.5” radius. Twenty Medium Jumbo frets line the board for easy fretting and accessible movement to get playing fast.

The voice of this J Bass, punchy and articulate, comes from two Player Series Alnico 5 Single-Coil Jazz Bass pickups that roll through a spectrum of captivating bass tones perfect for blending into any mix. A 4-Saddle Standard bridge grounds strings to the body while a set of Standard Open-Gear tuning machines and a synthetic bone nut meet at the other end of the guitar to account for solid intonation and quick stringing.

Bringing the best of the Jazz Bass experience to every player, this Player II Series entry has all the exciting elements of a Fender classic with modern playability in mind. It’s a Jazz Bass as it’s always been known.
