FENDER JAZZ BASS MACHINE HEADS

The machine heads on a Fender Jazz Bass feature gears that allow for precise tuning adjustments. They typically have a ratio of 20:1 or similar, which means that each complete turn of the tuning peg results in a relatively small change in pitch. This finer tuning ratio provides greater control over the string tension, enabling players to achieve precise tuning with ease.

FENDER JAZZ BASS SINGLE-COIL PICKUPS

The Fender Jazz Bass is known for its distinctive pickup configuration, which plays a crucial role in shaping its iconic sound. The Jazz Bass typically features two single-coil pickups, one near the bridge and one near the neck.

The pickups on a Fender Jazz Bass are designed to capture the vibrations of the strings and convert them into electrical signals that can be amplified and heard through an amplifier. The two pickups work together to provide a versatile range of tones, allowing for a wide variety of playing styles and musical genres.

CLOSET CLASSIC NITROCELLUOSE FINISH  

This Jazz Bass features a stunning closet classic finish that is intended to show minimal sings of use over the years, only exhibiting some laquer checking.

ASH BODY

Ash has a bright and articulate tonal character, with a pronounced midrange and a well-defined attack. It can offer excellent clarity and note definition, allowing each note to ring out distinctly. The tonal qualities of Ash can contribute to a tight and focused low end, a punchy midrange, and a crisp high end, which are often sought after in Jazz Bass guitars.

VINTAGE STYLE JAZZ BASS BRIDGE

The "Vintage-Style" bridge is a traditional bridge design that closely resembles the original bridges used on vintage Jazz Bass guitars from the 1960s. The Vintage-Style bridge features individual saddles for each string, allowing for precise intonation adjustment.
