Description
Need the extra range but don’t want to lose that classic Jazz Bass bite? The Player Jazz Bass V gives you five strings of authentic Fender low-end without dumbing down the tone. Two Player Series Alnico 5 single-coils deliver the punchy, growling voice this bass is known for, and with independent volume controls for each pickup plus a master tone knob, you can dial in everything from a fat, rounded thump to an aggressive, cutting snarl right at the source.
Playability is where this bass really earns its keep on a gig. The Modern “C”-shaped maple neck feels fast and comfortable across all five strings, and the 9.5″ radius fingerboard with 20 medium-jumbo frets keeps action low and consistent whether you’re walking lines or digging into slap passages. The 5-saddle bridge lets you fine-tune intonation and action to your own feel, so the setup is yours, not the factory’s.
Details that matter under stage lights and studio scrutiny: a 3-ply parchment pickguard, synthetic bone nut, vintage-style disc string trees, and open-gear tuners round out a bass built to last. The four-bolt neck plate with the “F” stamp is a small detail, but it’s a reminder this is genuine Fender construction, not a shortcut version.
If you’re covering five-string territory – modern gospel, funk, worship, or anything that needs that low B – the Player Jazz Bass V gives you real Fender tone and feel without asking you to compromise on either.
