Description
Built like the underdog of Fender guitars, the American Standard Jaguar Bass has the same shape as its 6-string counterpart, but with a lot more low-range growl. Complete with all the traditional thumb wheels and switches a player could want, this bass and its PJ configured pickups provide a vast range of tones from punchy and up front, to low and robust. Its contoured alder body comes paired with a modern C maple neck and rosewood fingerboard with block inlays in traditional Fender style. Available in classic finishes like Black, Olympic White, and 3-Tone Sunburst, plus the addition of Mystic Red, this bass will fit perfectly into any bass player’s arsenal.
