The Fender American Elite Jazz Bass RW Olympic White is a modern interpretation of the legendary 1960 classic, and based on the proven construction, the US-produced bass features many modern details that suit today's bass player. The neck with innovative compound shaping, two noiseless single coils of the 4th generation and active 3-band electronics belong to the equipment of the American Elite Jazz Bass.
With an alder body and the screwed maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, Fender uses the proven ingredients in the construction of the Fender American Elite Jazz Bass. At the same time, the compound shaping of the neck provides incomparable playing comfort. The profile of the back changes from a handsome "C" to a flat "D", while the fretboard radius also becomes flatter towards the high registers, so that even complex grooves and lines get out of your fingers easily. This is modern bass playing without signs of fatigue!
Two Fender 4th Generation Noiseless Single Coils are used as pickups on the Fender American Elite Jazz Bass. They convince with their classic vintage character, without the noise typical for single coilers. From transparent penetration at the bridge to the full low-end thrust at the neck, a wide sound spectrum can be called up via the blend control, which can be further adjusted via the active 3-band electronics. The equalizer is particularly musical, so that even with extreme settings, sounds with a strong character are offered. The mini-switch at the end of the control plate also allows the bass to be operated passively, so that classical sounds can also be realized without any problems.
Last but not least, the Fender American Elite Jazz Bass offers high-quality hardware equipment that combines classic style with modern functionality. Accordingly, the Fender HiMass Vintage bridge is used on the body, which contributes to the lively sound of the four-string through its solid construction and the string routing through the body. Fender/Hipshot tuners mounted behind a bone saddle on the head plate also promise precise and stable tuning.
