The ebony fingerboard adds a touch of luxury, providing a smooth playing surface and enhancing clarity in the upper register. White pearloid block inlays not only guide your way but also lend a striking visual appeal. Paired with 20 medium-jumbo frets and a vintage-style heel-adjust truss rod, this neck ensures stability and articulation across the entire scale. This thoughtful design provides bassists with an ergonomic feel while maintaining consistency in tone.

Custom Shop Pickups Provide Iconic Fender Tone

At the heart of this instrument are its Custom Shop handwound vintage-style Jazz Bass pickups, engineered to reproduce the warm, articulate tone that made Fender basses legendary. With independent volume controls for each pickup and a master tone control, players can fine-tune their sound from smooth low-end grooves to cutting midrange clarity. The '64 Jazz Bass wiring ensures a dynamic response, giving every note depth and character. Whether you're laying down a subtle rhythm or commanding the mix, these pickups deliver a rich tonal palette with remarkable precision.
