With the Fender American Vintage II 1966 Jazz Bass, seen here with a classic Olympic White finish, you get a premium-grade remake of a classic J-bass design, that's packed full of era-accurate specs, appointments, and tone.
Characteristic of production in 1966, this J-Bass is offered with white neck binding, pearl dots, two volume controls with master tone, matching painted headstock and 4-ply tortoiseshell pickguard. The 4-saddle bridge with threaded saddles, vintage-style "lollipop" tuners and much more, for that classic Jazz Bass playing experience.
Built with period-accurate bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and meticulously voiced, year-specific pickups, each instrument from the American Vintage II lineup captures the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone.
Fender American Vintage II 1966 Jazz Bass, Olympic White Key Features
An Evolution Of A Classic Design - When Don Randall at Fender Sales requested a more sophisticated, high-end bass model, the now iconic Jazz Bass was the result. The neck was narrower at the nut, providing a faster and more effortless feel and the sleek new body style mirrored the offset contoured style of the Jazzmaster. By 1966, evolution of the instrument reached new heights with striking new features.
Rock-Solid Playing Feel - Featuring a comfortable "U" shaped hard rock maple neck, and 7.25" radius round-lam rosewood fingerboard with vintage tall frets, this American Vintage II '66 Jazz Bass plays like a dream.
Pure Vintage Tone - A pair of Pure Vintage ‘66 Jazz Bass single coil pickups deliver the kind of classic thump and growl that helped to cement the Jazz Bass as one of the most versatile and sought-after instruments ever created.
American Vintage II Series - The instruments in the American Vintage II series are direct descendants of the original Fenders: designed for players with a fine appreciation for vintage Fender tone and feel and built with unmatched quality, down to the last screw.
Hard Case Included - This awesome guitar comes complete with a vintage-style Tweed hardcase with a Red interior, helping you to keep it safe from the harshest of knocks, spills, and scratches as you travel to and from performances.
