Fender Jazz Bass Special

Electric Bass

A Japanese-built bass of the 1980s combining a Precision-style body with a slim Jazz Bass neck and a Precision/Jazz pickup pairing. Its punchy, versatile voice is closely associated with Guns N' Roses bassist Duff McKagan, whose later signature models grew out of it.

    Electric bass

    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.
