    Launched in 1960 as a more refined companion to the Precision Bass, the Jazz Bass uses a slim, offset body, a narrow tapered neck, and two single-coil pickups. The result is a punchy, growling tone with a wide range of blended sounds that made it a studio and stage standard across countless genres.

    Introduced in 1958 as Fender's flagship, the Jazzmaster has a large offset body, wide flat single-coil pickups, a dual rhythm/lead circuit, and a floating tremolo with a separate bridge. Originally marketed to jazz players, it instead became a cornerstone of surf, then later alternative and indie rock.

    Electric bass

    Introduced in 1951, the Precision Bass was the first mass-produced electric bass guitar and effectively defined the instrument. Its fretted neck let players fret notes precisely, and the split single-coil pickup adopted in 1957 gives the deep, punchy tone that anchors recordings across nearly every popular genre.
