Description
The Fender American Professional Jazz Bass Rosewood in Oxblood marks a fresh chapter in Fender's modern professional lineup. You've seen the original American Professional, the American Professional II, and the American Professional Classic. This refreshed American Professional Series brings those ideas forward into Fender's latest take on a modern, professional-grade workhorse. The Oxblood finish, black pickguard, and rosewood fingerboard give this version a darker, more modern look, while the Slim "C" neck and V-Mod III pickups keep the focus on the fast feel, punch, and flexibility that make the Jazz Bass such a useful working instrument.
The Slim "C" maple neck uses rolled fingerboard edges, a 9.5" radius, and Fender's "Super-Natural" satin urethane finish for a smooth feel across long sets and studio sessions. A sculpted heel improves upper-fret access, while 20 narrow tall frets and the 1.5" nut width preserve the quick, comfortable response players expect from a Jazz Bass. V-Mod III single-coils provide articulate attack and plenty of definition, with separate volume controls for each pickup making it easy to move between rounder neck-heavy sounds, more focused bridge tones, and blended settings.
The HiMass Pro bridge can be set up for either string-through-body or top-load operation, giving players some flexibility in feel and response, while Fender lightweight vintage-style tuners help keep the instrument balanced and reliable. ClassicGear Precision potentiometers keep the control sweep smooth and predictable. We think the Oxblood version is a strong option for players who want the versatility of a professional Jazz Bass with a finish that stands apart from the usual choices.
