Fender American Vintage 74 Jazz Bass Natural RW

Descrizione

Within their American Vintage series, Fender offer instruments that could have been in their catalogue thirty, forty or fifty years ago. Like this Fender American Vintage '74 Jazz Bass for instance. This guitar was fully modelled after the 1974 Jazz Bass. Fender spared no expense and used the original tools, materials and components. For this Jazz Bass, they opted for a natural finish, clearly revealing the structure of the ash of the body.

Fender American Vintage '74 Jazz Bass: refined retro bass

The body forms the core for the tone of this bass guitar. It is made of ash, which has rather large pores, allowing for a rich resonance. High and low tones are provided with a proper amount of punch and the sound is very lively, especially when compared with other lighter types of wood. This guitar has a U-profile maple neck that is attached to the body with four screws, just like back in 1974. The rosewood fretboard has pearloid block inlays and houses twenty low, narrow frets.

Special single coils

To make your bass playing audible through an amplifier or headphones, this guitar is equipped with two single-coil pickups that were specially designed for the American Vintage '74 Jazz Bass, resulting in an optimal, true-to-form output. You can partake in more than enough warmth and punch as each pickup has its own volume and tone control. The chic chrome-plated cover above the bridge is decorated with the Fender F, and there's a hand rest above the second pickup, just like on the Marcus Miller bass. It may be clear that this American Vintage '74 Jazz Bass is optimally designed and built to be a rich-sounding bass guitar that is nothing if not loaded with character.
