The Fender Vintera III Early '70s Jazz Bass Rosewood in Candy Apple Red delivers classic early '70s Jazz Bass tone with a bold custom color finish. Candy Apple Red paired with binding and block inlays gives it that unmistakable era-specific look. If you want punch, clarity, and visual presence on stage, this one stands out immediately.

The alder body keeps the response balanced and articulate, matched with a maple neck carved into an Early '70s C profile that feels comfortable and substantial. The 7.25 inch radius round-laminated rosewood fingerboard features binding and pearloid block inlays, staying true to the early '70s aesthetic. The Vintage-Style Early '70s single-coil Jazz Bass pickups deliver tight lows, clear mids, and a defined top end that sits well in rock, funk, and soul settings. The 4-saddle vintage-style bridge with slotted steel saddles provides dependable sustain and intonation.

Vintage-style open-back tuning machines, bone nut, and nickel chrome hardware round out the authentic details. The straightforward dual volume and master tone layout keeps dialing in your blend simple and effective. We like this one because it captures the early '70s Jazz Bass vibe visually and sonically without overcomplicating anything.
