Fender 75 Jazz Electric Bass (Maple, with Case)
Bound fingerboards, three-knob controls (volume neck, volume bridge, master tone) and block inlays are standout features of this classic. The maple has Black fingerboard binding, Black block inlays and a three-ply Black pickguard.
Feature:
Simple yet effective controls. Vintage hardware is very good but not great; however it is part of the mojo of this bass. The Ash body is beautiful and light. The bound neck is very fast and easy to play.
Quality:
The construction of this bass is great. The neck joint is super tight with no gaps. The neck is straight and fretwork is very good with vintage style frets. The clear finish on this bass is also very good and makes the bass quite beautiful. The only thing needed was to tighten down some of the screws in the pickguard that were raised up a bit.
Value:
This bass is somewhat expensive for what it is.
Desirability:
The bass looks good and you will get comments on it.
Sound:
This Bass has the great 70's Era Jazz Bass sound. The 70's pickup spacing is awesome. The sound is very bright and crisp with just the bridge pickup and the tone cranked, and has a great growl with the neck pickup only, and when you crank them both you get a crisp bright sound with some growl. This bass has a very good sound.
Ease of Use:
This bass plays very well. It plays great right out of the box. Once I get it professionally set up I imagine it will play superbly.
Overall:
This is a great bass and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase.
