Product Description

Oh yes, Fender did! From deep within the cavernous and labyrinthine Research and Development department down at Fender headquarters, we've come up with this totally new take on the acoustic bass guitar-designed for the discerning bassist, yet friendly to guitarists, too. From its Jazz Bass guitar headstock, neck shape, strap button, and machine heads, it feels like home to the electric bassist, but it embodies all the deep and rich tones acoustic players look for. With a solid spruce top, traditional bridge, gold pickguard and lusciously bound fingerboard with eye-catching block position inlays, this bass is destined to make groundbreaking music! zZounds is an authorized dealer of Fender products.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (16 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "an awesome acoustic bass! Thanks Fender"
Sound: Deep bass, bright highs and mids. This is the third acoustic bass I've owned, the others being at least twice the cost of this. This Fender Kingman sounds better. Feature: Great finish, love the traditional Fender headstock and jazz neck. It's a blast to play. Ease of Use: It's very easy to play, projects well. Quality: Finish looks great, the frets are perfectly dressed, stays in tune. Value: This is a steal of a deal for a terrific sounding and feeling bass. I have told others about this bass. Manufacturer Support: While I have not contacted Fender about this product I have contacted them for other instruments and their response was always quick. The Wow Factor: This bass looks great, sounds great and is fun to play. Overall: I had hesitation about buying an instrument from China. I love this bass! I plan on keeping this bass. I am switching the bridge pins from plastic to brass.
Style of Music: Rock and Funky Blues

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "A high quality acoustic bass."
Sound: Sounds good. A little bright for my taste but I guess thats the strings. I play flatwounds on my electric. Feature: The built in tuner is great to have. I like the J-bass neck although it's heavy, because I usually play a J-bass electric. Quality: Quality is high, has a beautiful finish. Manufacturer Support: Didn't need support for this product but on a previous Fender I had a small issue and Fender's support was top shelf. All companies should backup their products like Fender does. The Wow Factor: It has a unique look with the Jazz neck. Overall: I don't expect to play this bass anywhere but home so for my use it will last as long as I do. The heavy neck you get used to real quick. I was looking for a cheap acoustic bass to take outside but got this as a factory blemish for a great price , couldn't pass it up. The tuner and electrics are a nice bonus.
Style of Music: blues, rock
