DISC Fender Classic 60s Jazz Bass Lacquer PF, Olympic White Overview
An instantly recognisable tone, the Classic Jazz Bass has plenty of attack, midrange, and definition contrasting to its precision counterpart that had a larger boom to its sound. This clarity was noted and was quickly adopted by many Jazz players. Its slim profile neck and fast action made playing fluid and smooth.
The Fender 60s JazzBass' ''C'' shape neck has a traditional 7.25'' radius and vintage tall frets - giving it a classic feeling fretboard with a modern sized neck. You get a traditional alder body with a classic nitrocellulose finish that will wear beautifully over time.

Full Description
View Full DescriptionNitrocellulose Lacquer
A nitro lacquer over an alder body – it looks and feels every bit classic. Coming out of Mexico, this is the first guitar from there using a nitrocellulose finish, a vintage touch normally only reserved for the American Vintage and Custom Shop models. It was something that has been requested for so many years and Fender have actually done something about it.
Pickups
Punchy with good bite and strong midrange, the Jazz standard Alnico pickups are known for their definition and growl. Turning both pickups on full and you get a humbucking effect that dips the mids and is perfect for pop and slap techniques.
Neck
Made from maple with a fao ferro. The slim ‘’C’’ shaped neck is fast to play and a 7.25’’ radius fretboard which is more rounded giving a very vintage feel.
Other touches like the reverse open-gear tuners and the vintage style four saddle bridge add to the authenticity combing not only this quintessential vintage aesthetic but helps give that unmistakable Jazz bass tone.
