Description
Taking the Jazz Bass to a new place, the Fender Player Jazz Bass V adds a fifth string to the traditional design, as well as a “Modern C”-shape neck with 9.5”-radius fingerboard. But like all the guitars in Fender’s Player Series, it still has Jazz Bass written all over it.
Founded by Leo Fender in 1938 as Fender’s Radio Service, what is now the Fender Musical Instruments Corporation began making electric guitars and amplifiers in 1945. The rest, as they say, is history. Creator of the world’s first mass-produced, and by far most popular, solid-bodied electric, Fender is now the world’s leading guitar manufacturer. Replacing the now-discontinued Standard series, the Fender Player Series honors the core Fender classics with quality construction, vintage-inspired finishes, select modern updates, and friendly price points that appeal to a range of aspiring and experienced players.
