Fender Vintera II 60s Jazz Bass, Rosewood Fingerboard, Fiesta Red Overview
The Fender Vintera II 60s Jazz Bass reaffirms Fender’s position at the pinnacle of bass guitar craftsmanship, boasting period-accurate tone, feel and style at a keen price point.
The Vintera II 60s Jazz Bass is a stunning 4-string bass guitar that fuses the timeless charm of 60s Fender basses with the slick, reliable performance and attainable price point of a modern one. This Mexican-built Jazz Bass is crafted for today’s musician who respects tradition but isn’t constrained by it, whether you’re a jazz aficionado, a rock enthusiast, or an indie artist looking for that iconic J-Bass sound and feel.
Classic Fender Tonewoods
Designed with an alder body and maple neck, a staple Fender tonewood combo, this Vintera II Jazz Bass offers full-bodied punch paired with striking clarity. It’s a tonal balance that has placed Fender instruments in the hands of legends, whether they’re filling arenas or crafting hits in the studio.
60s Neck Profile
The early-'60s “C”-shaped neck profile might have been inspired by a vintage decade, yet its comfort and playability will certainly appeal to the modern player. The rosewood fingerboard is meticulously shaped with a 7.25-inch radius and vintage-tall frets, granting you the comfort and room for larger bends and expansive vibratos, without losing any of that essential Fender feel.
Vintage Voiced Pickups
Like all the models in the Fender Vintera II range, the 60s Jazz Bass is equipped with specially voiced pickups designed to recreate the original’s tonal characteristics. The pair of vintage-style early-'60s single-coil pickups yield a spectrum of tonal colouration that’s as versatile as it is vibrant—providing everything from warm, woody basslines to dynamic, resonant highs. Whether you’re delving into funk grooves or crafting melodic solos in the vein of Jaco, this Jazz Bass makes every note count.
Robust Hardware
The vintage-style 4-saddle bridge and tuning machines enhance the 60s aesthetic whilst offering solid tuning stability and precise intonation.
