Product Description
Fender American Special Jazz Bass Rosewood Neck Bass Guitar. The American Special is an American made instrument at a low price but with no quality compromises.
Since it was first introduced in 1960 as the Deluxe Model, it was marketed as a stablemate to the Jazzmaster guitar which was also marketed as a Deluxe Model,
the Jazz has remained an iconic bass guitar. This model lives up to this reputation with features such as single-coil alnico Jazz Bass pickups, a vintage designed bridge, an alder body (sonically one of the best tonewoods) and a slim C profile neck with a choice of rosewood or maple fingerboard. The high gloss finish is set off with chrome hardware and a 3 ply pickguard. The bass comes complete with a deluxe gig bag.
