A Classic Vibe That Captures the Aesthetic and DNA of the Seventies
This Classic Vibe '70s Jazz Bass is part of the series that honors Fender's iconic eras, with an approach designed for today's musician. It features the distinctive visual codes of the 1970s (maple fretboard, block inlays, unapologetic vintage vibe), combined with consistent craftsmanship and smooth playability, notably thanks to the glossy tinted neck finish.
For Which Bassists and Styles?
Designed in a left-handed version, this Jazz Bass suits both the serious beginner and the intermediate player seeking a versatile 4-string with vintage character. Its defined yet punchy tone naturally adapts to funk, rock, pop, soul, blues, indie, reggae, and studio contexts where a clear bass presence in the mix is desired.
Sound
The pair of Alnico single-coil "vintage-style" pickups delivers a fast attack, clear high end, and articulate midrange typical of the Jazz Bass. The Volume / Volume / Tone controls allow you to switch from a warm, woody neck pickup sound to a tighter, more biting bridge pickup tone, or blend both to achieve the famous midrange scoop highly appreciated in slap and funk grooves. The poplar body provides a pleasant balance, while the maple fretboard enhances precision and presence-ideal for lines that need to "snap" without losing body.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To stay as close as possible to the original specifications, choose a 4-string long scale bass string set 34" / 864 mm in nickel-plated steel, gauge .045-.105. A standard strap (with universal ends) is also suitable for playing standing up.
