Fender Classic Series 70s Jazz Bass

From hard rock to slap-and-pop funk, the ’70s Jazz Bass captures the essence of the 1970s with striking looks and a bright, full sound still prized today by bassists everywhere. That decade saw the bridge pickup moved closer to the bridge, creating a brighter, more cutting tone, and the elegant addition of neck binding and block fingerboard inlays. That’s all offered in this authentically styled instrument loaded with vintage vibe and modern performance.
