Fender American Professional Classic Jazz Bass – Faded Dakota Red

The timeless tone-crafting tool kit of Fender’s J Bass array has powered the low end of numerous records and performances, spanning genres from light and bright to downright diabolical. With the Fender American Professional Classic Jazz Bass – Faded Dakota Red, Fender brings iconic sonics and US-built craftsmanship to rev up your rig. Its full-bodied and balanced-sounding alder body is endowed with dual Coastline ’66 Single-Coil Jazz Bass pickups, complemented by dedicated Volume controls and a Master Greasebucket Tone Circuit, leaving our low-end theorists aghast at its detailed sound-shaping power. A sleek Modern C maple neck and matching maple fingerboard undergird a 34-inch scale, bookended by vintage-style “Lollipop” tuners and a rock-solid 4-saddle bridge; the subterranean power of the Fender American Professional Classic Jazz Bass simply must be experienced in your hands.

Crafted with historic playability

Many bass players (including a bevy of us here) believe that J Basses boast some of the most accessible and playable necks around. And, thanks to its expertly crafted Modern C shape, the American Professional Classic Jazz Bass’s neck doesn’t disappoint. This ultra-comfortable profile fills your hand perfectly, while leaving enough wiggle room to facilitate effortless upper-register playing — an attribute only bolstered by the sleek sculpting of the neck heel. With its smooth rolled fingerboard edges and a lightning-fast, satin-finished neck, Fender’s luthiers have ensured that this is one J Bass that you won’t want to put down.

Super-powered sound shaping, right at your fingertips

Jazz Basses boast a 2-pickup setup, allowing you to pursue diverse tonal variations. The single-coils and the bass’s 3-knob setup have been responsible for a wide array of some of the most legendary bass tones in history. For this iteration of the iconic J Bass, Fender has endowed it with dual Coastline ’66 pickups, supplying serious single-coil sonics that more than enrich the bass’s namesake Classic character. With volume controls for each pickup, the color really amps up with the Master Greasebucket Tone Circuit — a contouring control that masterfully preserves your low-end power as you roll off the highs, without muddying or augmenting your bass frequencies.

Player-first design

Though the American Professional Classic Jazz Bass looks and feels like a familiar friend, it’s loaded with features that enhance both playability and tone. Its vintage-style bridge is robustly built to handle concert-grade performances, complementing the synthetic bone nut to efficiently transfer string energy to the bass’s body, resulting in augmented sustain and laser-focused articulation. The celebrated “Lollipop” tuners further expand the instrument’s vintage-inspired panache, effortlessly marrying rock-solid stability with time-tested style.
