Fender Vintera II Early 60s Jazz Bass Sonic Blue

Why the Fender Vintera II Early '60s Jazz Bass in Sonic Blue brings back the sound of the sixties

Sonic Blue is one of those colors from the Fender archives that immediately transports you back to the early sixties. The Vintera II Early '60s Jazz Bass combines that classic look with an alder body, a maple neck with a rosewood fretboard, and pickups built to original early '60s specifications. It is for the bassist who wants that authentic vintage sound, without the vintage price tag of an original.

The two vintage-style single-coil pickups deliver the punchy, articulate tone that made the Jazz Bass famous: warm and woody with clear definition. With individual volume and tone controls for each pickup, you can dial in your sound precisely, from deep, rounded notes to a piercing, percussive attack.

The playability is true to the era. The maple neck with the early '60s "C" profile and a 7.25-inch radius rosewood fretboard with vintage-tall frets feels familiar and plays smoothly across 20 frets. The 4-saddle vintage-style bridge with threaded steel saddles ensures solid intonation and sustain, while the vintage-style reverse tuning machines keep your tuning stable. A 3-ply mint green pickguard and a 38.1 mm bone nut complete the picture. 34-inch scale length.

Anyone looking for the authentic vintage spirit of the Jazz Bass in a timeless color will find exactly that in this Vintera II. Come and discover it.
