Fender American Jazz Bass V Pao Ferro

Fender American Jazz Bass V (5-String), pao ferro (w/case) Inspired by player feedback on our Precision Bass in the late 1950s, the Fender Jazz Bass debuted in 1960, and has become a staple for players of all genres. It has set the standard for bass tone in the decades since. The J-Bass features the original body radius and contours: slimmer neck, offset-waist body and two single-coil, bi-pole pickups, and provides player-friendly refinements such as detailed fret and nut work, a parchment/black/parchment pickguard and a graphite-reinforced neck with rolled edges. To enhance tone, American Series basses are crafted from solid, premium ash or alder bodies, depending on the finish you choose. Custom options include maple fingerboards, fretless, and four- or five-string models.
