Fender American Professional Jazz Bass V Bass Guitar, Maple Fingerboard, Oxblood

Revamped and ready to support some serious low-end, the Fender American Professional Jazz Bass V provides extended-range thump with new Fender inventions and improvements that solidify the American Professional series as a tonal force to be reckoned with. Whether it's proper jazz or some drop tuned heaviness, this Jazz V is the perfect choice for all things bass.

Forming the iconic Jazz silhouette is an alder body, adorned with a rich Oxblood gloss finish and black pickguard to ensure supreme aesthetics match the quality tone. Balanced and resonant, all notes, even at the lowest pitches, are supported and articulate, with plenty of mid-range to cut through. Attached to the body is a Slim "C" maple neck, always feeling intuitive and smooth with its "Super-Natural" satin-finish. In addition, a new sculpted neck heel allows for unintrusive access to each and every fret, leading to more expressive playing. Affixed to the neck is a maple fingerboard, lined with narrow tall sized frets and black dot inlays to guide each player to bass bliss.

Proper hardware makes the instrument, and the American Professional series supports endless, reliable musicality. First, a 5-saddle HiMass Pro bridge allows for precise setups with adjustable saddles to ensure proper intonation on every strings and at every fret. Furthermore, lightweight vintage-style tuning machines secure all pitches, and are easy to use whether for everyday adjustments or routine string changes. But, most importantly, Fender has introduced the new V-Mod III single-coil Jazz Bass V pickups to bring that iconic thump to your rig. Articulate and clear, but still providing the growl Jazz Bass players love, these new pickups offer slightly overwound tones that load up on punch and presence galore.
