Descrizione

Fender call it the standard among J-Bass guitars, the American Standard Jazz Bass.

Fender have updated the 2012 edition with a set of exclusive Custom Shop pickups to provide it with that authentic '60s sound. The 2012 American Standard Jazz Bass comes in many shapes and colours and this is the Olympic White version with a maple fretboard. The maple gives it fiercer trebles than rosewood would. Made in America, so top quality. Delivery includes guitar case.

2012 American Standard J-Bass: vintage looks, modern feel

The American Standard Jazz Bass has the same elegant looks as the original model from 1960, but features several modern modifications that make it better suited for today's bass players. Its neck has two Posiflex graphite neck support rods that keep it straight and stable under warm, cold and moist conditions. Additionally, the bass guitar is better-balanced thanks to the new Hipshot tuners that look traditional but weigh 30% less. At first glance, the bridge looks like a normal vintage bridge but it is actually thicker and more massive, providing a fuller tone with more sustain.

Custom Shop pickups for that famous J-Bass sound

Fender has equipped the 2012 American Standard Jazz Bass with Custom Shop '60s pickups. These two alnico 5 single coils provide that classic Jazz Bass sound, but with a dash more output for punchier mids and basses. Both pickups have their own volume control and the master tone will filter out the trebles. You can create a wide range of bass sounds by blending the two volumes, from a fierce bright tone, that'll cut through the mix excellently, to a warm, sultry jazz sound. All in all, a versatile bass guitar suitable for virtually any genre whether you like to slap, fingerpick, or go all out with a pick.
