Clayton Sound And Style

Throughout the entire phenomenal history of the band, the groundbreaking music of U2 has been underpinned by the gracefully muscular bass work of Adam Clayton. His impeccable groove and expansive tone form the sonic foundation of one of the biggest bands in the history of rock music, never more powerfully than today. Fender's Adam Clayton Jazz Bass puts his rock-solid sound and style in your hands, with elegant appointments and elemental tone, including two potent Fender Custom Shop pickups and a beautiful Sherwood Green Metallic gloss finish with matching headstock.

Custom Shop Pickups

Elemental Jazz Bass tone comes from dual Custom Shop single-coil pickups.

HI-Mass Bridge

The specially designed High Mass bridge on Clayton's bass has a cool contemporary look. It also has a lot of metal, which means it has a lot of mass for rock-solid sustain, intonation and tuning stability.

Custom "C" Neck Profile

Clayton's signature Jazz Bass features a distinctively sculpted custom neck profile for remakable playing comfort.

Block Inlays

Block fingerboard inlays add a touch of elegance.

Matching Painted Headstock

In addition to its many other fine features, the Adam Clayton Jazz Bass features the added elegance of a matching painted headstock.

"Lollipop" Tuning Machines

In a special mid-’60s design touch, the Adam Clayton Jazz Bass features seldom-seen oval "lollipop" tuners.
