Description
Some basses chase modern specs. This one chases a feeling – the one you get from a well-worn ’60s Jazz Bass that’s been growling through amps for decades. Fender built the Vintera ’60s Jazz Bass for players who want that exact vibe without hunting down a vintage original.
The heart of the tone is a pair of re-voiced single-coil Jazz Bass pickups, tuned to recapture the gritty, snarling character that made the J Bass a studio and stage staple in the first place. Plug in and you’ll hear it immediately – that midrange bite that cuts through a mix without needing to fight for space.
Fretting hand feels right at home on the “Mid ’60s C”-shaped neck, paired with a 7.25″ fingerboard radius and 20 vintage-style frets. It’s a slim, rounded profile that rewards players who grew up on vintage-feel necks or want to know what all the fuss is about.
- 34″ scale length for that authentic J Bass low-end response
- Vintage-style 4-saddle bridge with threaded saddles for solid intonation and sustain
- Reverse, open-gear tuning machines for period-correct looks and dependable tuning stability
- Chrome hardware and 4-bolt neck plate
- Pau ferro fingerboard, finished in Daphne Blue
- Includes a deluxe gig bag for load-in, load-out, and everything between
Whether you’re chasing Motown warmth, punk grit, or just want a bass that looks as good as it sounds under stage lights, this one’s built to deliver both the tone and the attitude.
