Fender Jazz Bass V Signature Mononeon MN Neon Yellow

A 5-String "Artist" Jazz Bass Designed for the Modern Stage

Designed within the Artist series, the Fender MonoNeon Jazz Bass V combines the ergonomics and balance that made the Jazz Bass famous, while embracing a radical visual identity and a decidedly contemporary sonic approach. This 5-string version pairs traditional Fender craftsmanship (alder and maple) with high-end active electronics, ideal for switching from an organic tone to a sharper attack, with a dynamic range tailored for modern stages and productions.

Who Is It For, and Which Styles?

This bass is aimed at intermediate to professional bassists who want an expressive, precise 5-string ready to handle demanding environments. It excels in funk, R&B, neo-soul, hip-hop, gospel, pop, and fusion, while remaining clear enough for rock styles. Its passive mode and Jazz Bass format also make it a great studio companion when seeking a wide palette of tones without sacrificing definition.

The Sound

The HH configuration with custom 5-string Fireball humbuckers delivers tight lows, present mids, and precise highs, with a robust output level and excellent noise control. The 18 V preamp provides ample headroom: whether slapping, picking, or fingerstyle, the attack stays clear and the dynamics breathe. The pan control allows fine blending of each pickup, while the 3-band active EQ shapes the spectrum to instantly fit the mix. In passive mode, the response becomes more direct and organic, with very natural musicality. The alder body contributes to balance and projection, the roasted maple enhances attack and stability, and the HiMass bridge extends sustain while ensuring reliable intonation.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

The bass comes with a Deluxe gig bag. For daily maintenance and playing, you can choose a 5-string set of strings with .045-.125 gauge (matching the original gauge), a good quality 6.35 mm jack cable, a comfortable strap, and a clip-on tuner. A bass stand is also handy for keeping it within reach during rehearsals or at home.
