Fender American Professional II Jazz Bass – 3 Color Sunburst
The Fender American Professional II Jazz Bass – 3 Color Sunburst takes a tried-and-true design and complements it with modern updates. The latest incarnation of a groundbreaking instrument, this electric bass guitar boasts a balanced-sounding alder body, which pairs nicely with the classic punch provided by its V-Mod II single-coil pickups. Playing this J Bass is an absolute joy — its fast, comfortable Slim “C”-shaped neck, smooth rolled fingerboard, and sculpted neck heel are guaranteed to elevate your playing. Tapered-shaft tuners and a HiMass vintage bridge round out the American Pro II J Bass’s player-friendly features. The American Pro II Jazz Bass was designed from the ground up to offer you an ideal gigging and recording instrument.
One of the best necks in the business
Many bass players believe that J Basses boast some of the best necks ever. And, thanks to its to-die-for Slim “C” shape, the American Pro II Jazz Bass’s neck doesn’t disappoint. This ultra-comfortable profile fills your hand perfectly, while leaving enough wiggle room to facilitate effortless playability. The American Professional II Jazz Bass sports smooth rolled fingerboard edges and a Super-Natural satin finish, ensuring that this is one J Bass that you won’t want to put down. You’ll also appreciate the American Pro II J Bass’s sculpted neck heel, which provides a comfortable feel and easy access to this electric bass guitar’s upper register.
Simple and effective electronics
Jazz Basses boast a 2-pickup setup, allowing you to pursue diverse tonal variations. The single-coils and the bass’s 3-knob setup have been responsible for a wide array of some of the most legendary bass tones in history. The Fender American Professional II Jazz Bass sticks close to its heritage with a duet of V-Mod II single-coil pickups. Designed by pickup guru Tim Shaw, these single-coil pickups exhibit the same warmth and clarity as their predecessor, while adding extra articulation and all the J Bass punch you can handle.
Player-friendly appointments
Though the American Professional II Jazz Bass looks and feels like a familiar friend, it’s loaded with features that enhance both playability and tone. One of the most notable features is its 4-saddle HiMass vintage-style bridge. This bridge’s rigid construction works in concert with this electric bass guitar’s bone nut to transfer more of the string’s energy to the body of the instrument, enhancing its sustain and articulation. And the American Pro II Jazz Bass’s tapered-shaft tuner design ensures you have optimal break angle and tension on your string posts.
