About Fender Bass Guitars
Fender Bass Guitars boast a history that's steeped in innovation. The company has crafted some of the most iconic bass guitars that have shaped the sound of popular music for decades. From the thunderous growl of the Precision Bass to the melodic versatility of the Jazz Bass, Fender have become synonymous with craftsmanship, quality, and unparalleled musical expression.
First launched in the 1950s, the P-Bass was the first-ever electric bass on the market! A truly revolutionary instrument, it entirely replaced the cumbersome double bass that performers would have to lug on stage up until that time. Its thumpy, raw sound became the heartbeat of countless genres, from rock'n'roll, to funk, and then to Motown.
Quickly followed by the Jazz Bass in the '60s, Fender brought a new dimension to the world of low-down sounds. A new, sleek design and dual single-coil pickups gave players a brighter, more versatile tone that would become a staple in Jazz (there's a surprise), funk, and fusion scenes.
Since then, Fender have continued to lead the way in bass design with their Offset series and affordable acoustic line. And today, you can find a huge variety of models in each series to satisfy any musical need. From the entry-level Player series to the refined, professional-standard American models, Fender's assortment is well suited to both stage and studio.
And if you're after something a little rarer and more bespoke, then the Made-In-Japan, Custom Shop and Signature Artist series are packed full of character, features and distinctive sonics.
Speaking of artists, with a Fender Bass in your hands you're in good company! With virtuosos like Motown legend James Jamerson and pop-funk Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers showing the potential of these revered machines, the sky is the limit to what you can achieve!

Why are Fender basses so heavy?
