Description

Full View Full A Classic Alder BodyThe American Professional bass features a classic alder body, with comfortable contours every player will love. Alder is the perfect choice for a guitar body, as it produces a resonant and balanced tone with plenty of clarity for bright, sizzling highs, excellently rounded lows, and beefy mids. Fender have used alder as their tonewood of choice since the 1950s, as the balanced response and slight upper middle definition makes it perfect for rock and blues playing.Slim C Maple Neck and Rosewood FingerboardThe bass’s maple neck delivers an incredibly comfortable and smooth feel, adding tightness and cut to the guitar’s tone while its slim ”C” profile offers an incredibly fast performance. A rosewood fingerboard is coupled with the neck to provide warm characteristics, furring up the maple’s harsh sound for a smooth tonality. The maple and rosewood combination provides the bass with sizzling, sparkling highs, thick, firm lows, and a snappy attack in the midrange.V-Mod PickupsThe Jazz bass is fitted with a set of Fender’s V-Mod single coil pickups, which are a modified version of their vintage design pickups. Designed with a carefully selected blend of alnico magnet types, these pickups offer a high-output tone with vintage warmth. This setup provides the bass with an incredibly balanced tone saturated with authentic Fender sonic properties.HiMass BridgeAs well as offering a wide variety of superb tones, the American Professional P Bass also features Fender’s HiMass bridge, improving note sustain and resonance. The bridge’s design enhances the attack of the bass, creating a lively tone while offering either a string though or top loaded set-up.Narrow Tall FretsAnother edition to the American Professional series are the narrow tall frets, which are mounted on the rosewood fingerboard and provide incredible comfort when performing slides. Being slightly narrower than standard medium jumbo frets, the narrow tall frets are incredible effective for bending notes and playing chords with superb intonation.Graphite Support RodsPosiflex graphite support rods run the length of the bass’s neck, adding stability while reducing the amount of warping that may occur from temperature fluctuations and humidity. This is a particular advantage to players who travel, ensuring the instrument is always ready to play at a moment’s notice.Bone NutAs well as offering the perfect tone and looks, the American Professional features a bone nut, adding to the classic aesthetics of the bass. The main benefit of a bone nut compared to modern materials is excellent resonance and sustain. A bone nut also delivers a very balanced tone, and will last a long time. In addition, this type of nut naturally self-lubricates and helps the bass stay in tune for longer.Elite Moulded CaseThe American Pro series of instruments are delivered in an elite moulded case, featuring body-hugging contours which holds the guitar firmly in place. TSA latches are also included for enhanced security and easy access. This durable case also features a stacking ability, for easy storage and transport.SpecificationsModel Number: 0193900748Series: American ProBody & BridgeBody: AlderShape: Jazz BassBridge: 4-Saddle HiMass Vintage (String-Through-Body or Topload) Construction: Bolt-OnFinish: Sonic GreyNeck & FingerboardNeck: MapleProfile: ‘’Slim C’’Scale Length: 34’’Fingerboard: RosewoodRadius: 9.5’’Frets: 20 Narrow TallInlays: White DotsNut: BoneNut Width: 1.5’’Electronics & HardwareBridge Pickup: V-Mod Single-Coil Jazz BassMiddle Pickup: V-Mod Single-Coil Jazz BassControls: 2 x Volume, Master ToneTuning Machines: Fender Lightweight Vintage-Style Keys w/Tapered ShaftsControl Knobs: Vintage-Style Black Plastic Jazz BassNeck Plate: 4-BoltPickguard: 3-Ply ParchmentHardware: Nickel/ChromeStrings: Fender USA Bass 7250M, NPS (.045-.105 Gauges)Case Included: Elite Moulded HardshellFender American Professional Jazz Bass RW, Sonic Grey at
