The Fender American Professional II Jazz Bass V reimagines the legendary J Bass for today's creative musician. With innovative V-Mod II Jazz Bass V single-coil pickups, a smooth rolled fingerboard edge and a sculpted neck heel, this instrument provides an unparalleled playing experience. The lightweight alder body resonates with classic Fender tone that cuts through any mix.

V-Mod II Pickups Provide Legendary Articulation

Newly redesigned V-Mod II Jazz Bass V single-coil pickups deliver the clarity and punch the J Bass is known for with more articulation than ever. The bridge pickup provides a bright, focused tone that cuts through the mix, while the neck pickup offers a warm, round sound perfect for fingerstyle playing. With a master volume and tone control, dial in the perfect blend of sound to suit your style.

A Neck Made for Comfort

The slim C-shaped neck profile with a satin finish glides through your fingers without friction. Rolled fingerboard edges and a sculpted neck heel provide maximum comfort for hours of playing. The 9.5" radius fingerboard and narrow-tall frets deliver a familiar feel for chording and soloing alike. Adjustable tapered-shaft tuners keep your instrument in tune through the most complex basslines.

All the Iconic Touches

From the distinctive offset body shape to the vintage-style bridge, the American Professional II Jazz Bass V is filled with iconic Fender touches. The top-load/string-through HiMass Vintage bridge increases sustain and articulation. White dot position inlays provide a stylish reference point along the 20 narrow-tall fret rosewood fingerboard. A deluxe molded case provides protection for your investment in Fender's legacy of sound.
