First introduced in 1960, the Fender Jazz Bass guitar has become one of the most popular instruments in modern musical history.
All the model’s original Fender "firsts"—such as the offset waist, ultra-slim fast-action neck, stacked concentric controls and full-range bi-pole pickups—are recreated in the period-correct American Vintage ’62 Jazz Bass. A true classic revisited.
Please Note: The American Vintage ’62 Jazz Bass may be shipped with the chrome bridge and pickup covers unmounted, but included in the accessory kit.
