This is a beautifully crafted 5-string FENDER® Jazz Bass® that combines stunning looks and superb sound. With a sleek, offset waist design and a rare koa top over a rosewood and mahogany body, the Victor Bailey Jazz Bass V is guaranteed to turn heads on stage or in the studio. But it's not all about the looks, as this baby sports two Special Design Noiseless™ pickups and specially voiced circuitry to deliver a huge, organic bass sound. Other features include Posiflex Graphite neck supports, abalone dot position markers and highly detailed nut and fret work. Look at the picture and if you can stop drooling long enough, pick up the phone and ask your Sales Engineer about this instant classic!

       Fender Victor Bailey Jazz Bass V Features at a Glance:
  • Highly figured koa top over a rosewood and mahogany body
  • Two Special Design Noiseless pickups
  • Specially voiced tone circuitry
  • Modern "C" shape maple neck with rosewood fingerboard
  • Deluxe, plush-lined hardshell case       

Highly figured koa top over a rosewood and mahogany body       
One look is all it takes to know the Victor Bailey Jazz Bass V is a very special instrument. It starts with a beautifully figured top made from rare and exotic koa over a rosewood and mahogany body. This combination resonates like no other bass thanks to a specially formulated polyester finish.

Two Special Design Noiseless pickups
A bass as special as the Victor Bailey Jazz Bass V deserves a special set of pickups, so Fender dropped in two Special Design Noiseless pickups with Samarium Cobalt magnets that help to deliver a sweet, warm sound that perfectly matches the instrument's good looks.

Specially voiced tone circuitry       
The tone shaping abilities of the Victor Bailey Jazz Bass V are enhanced by special circuitry that has been tweaked at the input stage with pre-shape, boost and EQ settings. Bass EQ is centered at 40Hz (plus/minus 12dB) while the treble EQ is centered at 8kHz (plus/minus 10dB)The mid-control is set at 500Hz with a wide-band slope for a distinctive bass sound all its own.

Modern "C" shape maple neck with rosewood fingerboard
Leo Fender wasn't a guitar player, so he didn't really know that guitars weren't supposed to have maple necks. Eventually, the blond maple necks became a Fender trademark. This Artist Series Victor Bailey Jazz Bass V has a nicely balanced maple neck with a modern "C" shape and a rosewood fingerboard. A koa headstock overlay adds the final touch of class.

       Deluxe, plush-lined brown hardshell case       
As you'd expect with a bass of this pedigree, the Victor Bailey Jazz Bass V comes complete with a deluxe, plush-lined brown hardshell case

Customer Reviews
 Victor Bailey Jazz BassĀ®  
by DAVID from Frederick , Md, December 21, 2007
Music Background:  Christian Musician


“The action is smooth and fast. The spectrum of sounds this bass can produce is amazing - I think the koa top adds a lot of aural as well as visual luster. This is a superior instrument that begs for an experienced hand to bring out all of its capabilities. The price is higher, but well worth the investment.
I really truely believe this instrument is well built.
David”
