American Professional Classic Jazz Bass
Fender American Professional Classic Jazz Bass® – Vintage Soul, Modern Precision
The American Professional Classic Jazz Bass® embodies the perfect fusion of heritage and innovation, delivering the unmistakable Fender® tone and feel that defined generations — now refined for today’s player. With its blend of timeless aesthetics, powerful electronics, and contemporary craftsmanship, this bass stands ready for any stage, studio, or session.
Classic Feel. Modern Playability. Legendary Tone.
At the heart of this instrument lie the Coastline™ ’62 Jazz Bass® pickups — meticulously voiced to capture the warmth, punch, and focus of vintage Fender® designs, now slightly overwound for enhanced clarity and presence. The Modern “C”-shaped neck with a 9.5" radius fingerboard and medium jumbo frets ensures effortless comfort and speed, while maintaining that familiar Fender feel.
Finished in custom-faded vintage and signature Fender® colors, the American Professional Classic Jazz Bass® exudes timeless style. Authentic “lollipop” tuners and vintage-style hardware add the finishing touch, merging retro aesthetics with modern reliability. The Greasebucket™ Tone System offers refined tonal shaping — taming treble without adding bass or sacrificing output — preserving every nuance of your sound.
