    At Fender, they live and breathe electric instruments. They never rest—pushing craftsmanship to its limits, they design, test and endlessly experiment to create the best instruments on the planet. The Jazz Bass, a refinement of concepts first introduced in the Precision Bass, is the earliest example of this philosophy in action.

    V-Mod Pickups
    V-Mod Jazz Bass pickups are modified versions of Fender's classic vintage pickup designs. Packed with the fundamental Fender bass sound you know and love, these single-coil pickups crank out high-output tone with vintage warmth and the crisp, clear sound that made Fender a legend.

    Slim 'Modern C' Neck Profile
    This instrument features a modern neck designed for comfort and performance, with a slim, modern 'C'-shaped profile (the shape of the neck in cross section), 9.5 inch fingerboard radius and narrow-tall frets.

    Narrow-Tall Frets
    Narrow-tall frets are taller and narrower than their medium jumbo cousins, making them especially effective for bending notes and playing chords up the neck with perfect intonation.

    New Fluted-Shaft Tuning Machines
    Wider at the top than the bottom, the fluted shafts force the string windings downward and keep them tight, resulting in a sharper and consistent break angle over the nut, creating increased sustain and better tuning stability.

    Posiflex™ Graphite Rods
    All American Professional bass necks incorporate Posiflex graphite rods to reinforce against movement that can occur with fluctuations the environment. Embedded beneath the fingerboard, they improve reliability on the road, in the studio or in your home.

    New Hardshell Case
    The Elite Moulded Case features body-hugging contours to protect your cherished instrument, TSA latches for increased security and nested stacking ability for easy storage and secure transport.

We also have four guitar booths, two soundproofed drum booths, an in-house Guitar Workshop and a unique  monitor-auditioning studio designed by acoustician Andy Munro.
