Fender - American Professional Jazz Bass V RW 3-Color Sunburst

The Fender American Professional Jazz Bass V RW 3-Colour Sunburst represents the culmination of over sixty years of continuous refinement of the Jazz Bass®, tailored to the demands of modern bassists seeking both low-end extension and harmonic richness. This five-string version combines an alder body – whose polyurethane finish showcases the 3-Colour Sunburst gradient – with a maple neck featuring a Slim “C” profile that fits the hand naturally.

The meticulously rounded fretboard edges, the ‘Super-Natural’ satin finish on the back of the neck and the redesigned heel ensure that every movement is fluid, making it easy to explore the higher registers effortlessly and without strain. The rosewood fingerboard, with a 9.5-inch radius, features twenty Narrow Tall frets and discreet White Dot inlays, ensuring impeccable playing precision.

The two V-Mod III Single-Coil Jazz Bass® V pickups, specially developed for this model, preserve the iconic character of the Jazz Bass®—its warmth, bite and clarity—whilst delivering enhanced definition in the lower frequencies. The ClassicGear™ Precision™ controls allow for smooth and musical control of volume and tone, with calibrated resistance and a response curve tailored to expressive playing.

The 5-Saddle HiMass™ Pro bridge, compatible with both through-body and top-load stringing, allows sustain to be adjusted to suit individual preferences. The Fender® Lightweight Vintage-Style tuners, paired with Fender® USA 7250-5M strings, ensure exemplary stability. This versatile instrument is equally at home in the studio and on stage.
