Description
Every bassist who’s cranked a Rush record knows that tone – biting, punchy, unmistakably Jazz Bass. This U.S.A.-built model isn’t a reissue guess; it’s Geddy Lee himself picking apart his three favorite instruments (two Custom Shop signature builds and his battered ’72 original) and telling Fender’s team exactly what made them work. The result lands in your hands as a bass that feels substantial without being clumsy, with a custom thicker “C”-profile maple neck that gives your fretting hand something real to dig into on long sets.
The two vintage-style single-coil pickups were specially wound to chase that ’72 growl – not a generic Jazz Bass voice, but Lee’s actual recorded tone. Pair that with the signature High-Mass bridge and you get intonation that stays locked in even when you’re leaning hard into a passage. The maple board with white binding and pearloid block inlays isn’t just there to look sharp on a dark stage – it’s fast under the fingers and easy to read at a glance.
