A Jazz Bass Designed in the Fender Spirit, Accessible from the First Gigs

Launched in 1960 as a complement to the Precision Bass, the Jazz Bass established itself thanks to its brightness, versatility, and ergonomics. This Fender Standard Jazz Bass carries these fundamentals with a "plug and play" approach: a refined feel, inspiring sound, and pickup configuration that easily covers rock, funk, pop, and jazz, while remaining simple to adjust.

For Whom, and For Which Styles?

Designed to accompany bassists at the start of their musical journey, this Jazz Bass will also suit intermediate players looking for a comfortable and versatile bass. Its pair of single-coil pickups allows for a sound ranging from full and warm (neck pickup) to sharper and more defined attacks (bridge pickup), making it comfortable in rock, funk, punk, pop, jazz, and contemporary music.

The Sound

The SS configuration (two Jazz Bass single-coils) is key to its identity: each pickup has its own volume control, then a master tone allows softening the highs. The neck pickup provides body and an ideal foundation to hold the groove, while the bridge pickup emphasizes definition and articulation for more incisive lines. The ceramic magnets and the "high" output level promote a clear and present signal, useful for standing out in a mix. The 34" / 864 mm scale length contributes to solid low-end sustain and precise attack, particularly appreciated in pick playing as well as slap.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

To respect the original specifications, favor a 4-string long scale bass string set in .045-.105 (nickel plated steel). A standard strap and a universal bass stand will also fit without particular constraints.
