Fender Player Series Jaguar Bass: Fender Tone with a Modern Edge

The Fender Player Series Jaguar Bass is teeming with classic tone and styling, along with the playability you'd expect from a modern instrument. No matter what sound you're reaching for, the Fender Player Series Jaguar Bass's versatile combination of Precision and Jazz Bass-style pickups will help you achieve it. Enjoy ultra-fast feel, by virtue of a Modern "C"-shaped neck with a contemporary 9.5-inch fingerboard radius. Other features include a synthetic bone nut, 4-saddle standard bridge, and Fender standard open-gear tuners. Want classic Fender tone with a modern edge? Then pick up a Fender Player Series Jaguar Bass — it delivers the sound and performance you're itching for.

Fender's Player Series: vintage vibe, modern edge

For their new Fender Player Series basses, Fender went back to the drawing board with updated radii for more historically accurate body shapes, new vintage-inspired finishes, and a classic logo that harken back to the Fenders of yesteryear. But these smooth-playing instruments also look to the future with new Alnico V pickups that crank out legendary Fender tone by the boatload. There's never been a better time to get into a genuine Fender bass. Pick up a Fender Player Series bass, and lay down the groove with a modern classic.

Fender Player Series Bass offers a versatile pickup combination

The duet of P and J pickups is one of the most flexible and clear-sounding combinations available. Thanks to its traditional split-coil Precision Bass pickup, you can count on the Fender Player Series Jaguar Bass to pump out dynamically intense tone. With a Jazz Bass single-coil pickup at the bridge position, this versatile bass guitar packs a powerful midrange punch. Bassists here at Sweetwater often combine the tones for a punchy sound with added clarity.

Tonal versatility from individual volume controls

The Fender Player Series Jaguar Bass is incredibly versatile — it fits in with virtually any bass rig. Individual volume and pickup controls let you fine-tune your pickup combination until it has just the right balance of power and punch, and you can dial in the amount of clarity you prefer with the master tone control.

Maple neck with comfortable modern "C" shape

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. The Fender Player Series Jaguar Bass has a nicely balanced maple neck with a modern "C" shape and a fast-playing 9.5-inch-radius pau ferro fingerboard. One thing's for sure — you'll have a great time putting this electric bass guitar through its paces.
