The Fender Vintera III Early ’70s Jazz Bass captures the bold styling and articulate tone that defined Fender’s early-’70s era. Built with an alder body and round-laminated rosewood fingerboard, it delivers punchy lows, clear highs, and the focused midrange that made the Jazz Bass a staple on stages and in studios throughout the decade.
The Early ’70s “C”-shape maple neck features binding and block inlays along with a vintage-correct 7.25" radius and vintage tall frets for an authentic feel. A pair of vintage-style Early ’70s single-coil Jazz Bass pickups provides articulate attack and warm, woody character, while a vintage-style 4-saddle bridge and open-back tuning machines complete the period-correct design.
