Classic Jazz Bass Feel With Modern Upgrades
The Fender Player II Modified Active Jazz Bass RW stays true to the iconic Jazz Bass design while incorporating modern refinements for superior playability. Its alder body delivers the punchy, well-balanced tone that has defined Fender basses for decades. The Modern “C” maple neck features a satin urethane finish on the back, allowing for smooth hand movement, while the rolled fingerboard edges provide a comfortable, broken-in feel right out of the box. Combined with a 9.5” radius rosewood fingerboard and medium jumbo frets, this bass offers effortless playability for both traditional and contemporary styles.
Noiseless Pickups For Powerful, Hum-Free Tone
Equipped with a pair of Player II Noiseless™ Jazz Bass pickups, this bass delivers the classic growl and punch of a Jazz Bass without unwanted hum or interference. These pickups are engineered to provide a full, articulate sound that stands out in any musical setting, from deep, rounded lows to crisp, defined highs. Playing with fingers or a pick delivers a dynamic and expressive response, ensuring clarity in every note. Perfect for studio recording and live performance, these noiseless pickups let you focus on your playing without distractions.
Active Preamp With Versatile Tone Shaping
With an all-new 18-volt active preamp, the Player II Modified Active Jazz Bass RW offers expanded tonal flexibility. The 3-band EQ allows precise control over treble, midrange, and bass frequencies, making it easy to shape your sound for any genre. A dedicated active/passive mini-toggle switch lets you choose between a modern, boosted tone and a more traditional passive Jazz Bass sound. This gives you the best of both worlds, ensuring you can dial in the perfect tone for funk, jazz, rock, and beyond.
High-Performance Hardware For Tuning Stability
Designed with reliability in mind, this Jazz Bass features a 4-saddle HiMass bridge that enhances sustain and resonance while keeping intonation rock-solid. The chrome-plated zinc saddles ensure even string spacing and improved contact with the body, adding depth to your tone. Tapered-shaft tuning machines provide a sharper break angle at the nut, improving tuning stability and string tension. The Graph Tech TUSQ nut further enhances resonance and sustain while providing consistent tuning accuracy. Every hardware component is built for durability, ensuring this bass performs flawlessly on stage and in the studio.
