A Jazz bass with punchy tone and smooth playability.
The Fender American Professional Classic Jazz Bass maple fingerboard delivers iconic tone and modern craftsmanship for bassists seeking unparalleled performance. Built with an alder body finished in gloss urethane, this bass offers a balanced tonal foundation with enhanced sustain and resonance. The 34" scale length and maple fingerboard provide a snappy attack, while the vintage-inspired Coastline '62 single-coil Jazz Bass pickups deliver articulate lows and crisp highs. A satin urethane neck finish ensures smooth playability, and the vintage-style hardware maintains the Jazz Bass's timeless aesthetic. Complete with a deluxe gig bag, this instrument combines heritage, precision, and versatility for discerning players. Its meticulous construction and cutting-edge features make it a standout in the world of professional bass guitars.
Fender Coastline Pickups Deliver Iconic Jazz Bass Tone
At the heart of the American Professional Classic Jazz Bass lies a pair of Coastline ’62 single-coil pickups, engineered to capture the deep, punchy growl and articulate snap that have define the iconic Jazz Bass tone for decades. These vintage-voiced pickups balance warmth and clarity, offering rich harmonic detail that cuts through in any mix—from soulful grooves to modern funk lines. Complementing them is Fender’s Greasebucket tone circuit, which lets you roll off high frequencies without muddying the lows. The result is a versatile, performance-ready electronics package that keeps your sound tight, controlled and authentically Fender, whether you’re in the studio or on stage.
Jazz Bass With Maple Neck and Satin Finish
The maple neck on this Fender bass offers a comfortable playing experience, thanks to its satin urethane finish that eliminates stickiness and promotes fluid movement along the fretboard. The medium-jumbo frets and 1.5" nut width provide a familiar feel for both precision and expressive playing. A synthetic bone nut ensures consistent intonation, while the lightweight tuning machines reduce neck dive for improved balance. With a 34" scale length, this neck delivers the taut string response that bassists rely on for clear articulation and controlled sustain. Whether you're anchoring a groove or exploring melodic lines, this neck design supports smooth, precise playing across the fretboard.
Vintage-Style Bridge for Enhanced Resonance and Stability
The 4-saddle vintage-style bridge on this bass is engineered for tonal clarity and rock-solid stability. Made with steel saddles, the bridge enhances resonance and sustain, ensuring each note rings out with authority. Its vintage-inspired design not only complements the instrument's classic aesthetic but also offers precise adjustability for intonation and string height. This construction allows for consistent performance during demanding gigs or extended practice sessions. Combined with Fender's classic lollipop tuners, this bridge delivers reliable tuning stability and enhances the overall tonal integrity of the instrument.
Durable Alder Body With Gloss Urethane Finish
The alder body of this Jazz Bass is celebrated for its balanced tonal characteristics, offering crisp highs, strong mids and a solid low-end presence. The gloss urethane finish not only enhances the wood's natural resonance but also provides long-lasting protection against wear and tear. Its lightweight construction ensures comfort during long performances, while the iconic Jazz Bass contour promotes an ergonomic fit. Paired with a four-ply tortoiseshell pickguard and nickel/chrome hardware, this body showcases a timeless design with modern durability, making it ideal for players who demand reliability and style in equal measure.
Built for Precision and Professional Performance
The Fender American Professional Classic Jazz Bass maple fingerboard is tailored for bassists who demand clarity, comfort and durability. Its lightweight alder body, responsive maple neck and dynamic Coastline pickups make it an exceptional choice for both studio and live performances.
