Fender American Original ’70s Jazz Bass Maple Fingerboard Natural w/OHSC

Description

The Fender Jazz Bass entered a new era when the 1970s came around. Funk was king, and disco was moving onto the block. To get into the groove of this vibrant decade, designers of the Fender Jazz Bass made slight variations in body style, hardware, and appointments that invited new playing techniques like slapping, as well as other forms of creative expression. Players quickly fell for the changes, and the Fender ’70s Jazz Bass became a live performance and recording favorite known for its midrange growl and slightly toothier treble compared with its ’60s predecessor. The Fender American Original ’70s Jazz Bass is a faithful homage to this iconic J Bass, featuring the same tonewoods for the body, classic appointments, and vintage hardware.
