Fender Limited Edition USA Jazz Sandblast Electric Bass, Maple Fingerboard (with Gig Bag)

No longer available at zZounds
With no two finishes quite the same, this All-American Fender Jazz Bass's textured sandblasted ash body is sure to stand out from the crowd.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Ash body Strong, snappy responsive tone
Maple fretboard Delivers a bright, snappy sound
Sandblasted finish Body sandblasted exposing textured wood grain
American Standard Jazz Bass pickups Full, balanced tone with midrange punch

The Fender Limited Edition USA Sandblasted Ash Jazz Bass features one of the most alluringly unusual finish treatments yet seen on a Fender instrument. After the transparent finish (in beautiful Sapphire Blue or Crimson Red) is applied, the ash body is literally sandblasted, leaving the surface grain pattern wonderfully textured with parallel ruts and grooves in which the black grain-filler coat shows beneath the color finish coat. It's a truly beautiful look complemented by a black pickguard, and the "topography" of no two instruments is identical. The bass is also finely appointed with two American Standard single-coil Jazz Bass pickup, a slim maple neck and narrow width fingerboard.

I have been playing this bass for a month now for practices, live, and in a video shoot. The body detail up close is brilliant and more than turns heads. Coming from a P bass, the guitar like feel of the Jazz neck is fast and fun! The stock US pickups sound incredible and are very very defined in Drop b tuning!
