Fender Jaco Pastorius Fretless Jazz Bass Guitar, 3-Color Sunburst w/Hard CaseThe Fender Jaco Pastorius Fretless Jazz Bass honors the legacy of a musical innovator, Jaco Pastorius, widely considered to be one of the greatest electric bass players of all time. Pastorius revolutionized the instrument, pushing its boundaries across genres from R&B and rock to jazz and classical, and his signature sound stemmed from his own unique approach and a sunburst fretless Jazz Bass a sound Fender has recreated in this incredible instrument.
The Fender Jaco Pastorius Fretless Jazz Bass honors the legacy of a musical innovator, Jaco Pastorius, widely considered to be one of the greatest electric bass players of all time. Pastorius revolutionized the instrument, pushing its boundaries across genres from R&B and rock to jazz and classical, and his signature sound stemmed from his own unique approach and a sunburst fretless Jazz Bass – a sound Fender has recreated in this incredible instrument.
The body of this bass is cut from select alder, finished in a classic gloss 3-color Sunburst. This understated finish is simple: the natural beauty of alder peeks through, and the 3-Color Sunburst finish is timeless. This body contour is instantly recognizable as the Jazz Bass design, as comfortable to hold as it is iconic.
For its neck, Fender has chosen a comfy “C” shaped maple neck, with a gloss nitrocellulose lacquer finish for a smooth, fast feel. The defining characteristic of this bass, however, is its fretless fingerboard, carved from pau ferro. The Jaco Pastorius Jazz Bass features a slab Pau Ferro fingerboard—an upgrade from the more common round laminate boards in this price range. This design choice combined with the 12-inch fingerboard radius provides a familiar playing experience for players familiar with playing a fretted bass, transitioning to a fretless one. To aid note placement, Fender has included 20 inlaid white fretline markers along the fingerboard.
A pair of American Vintage single-coil Jazz Bass pickups live in the body of this J-Bass. These pickups capture the full, pure, and powerful fretless sound that Pastorius popularized, controlled with volume controls for each pickup and a master tone knob, sans any switches.
Nickel/chrome hardware adds a smidge of modern life to this otherwise vintage-inspired instrument, while knurled flat-top control knobs deliver a delightful tactile experience.
This instrument comes complete with a deluxe Fender brown hard case included.
