Fender Gold Foil Jazz Bass - 2-color Sunburst

Description: Fender Gold Foil Jazz Bass - 2-color Sunburst While gold foil pickups are often associated with catalog guitars of the '50s and '60s, many basses of the era also sported these remarkable pickups. From the Harmony H22 to the Japanese-made Teisco EB-100, gold-foil-equipped basses had a rich sonic character that lent itself to the raw, energetic garage rock of the '60s. The Gold Foil Jazz Bass pays tribute to those fantastic instruments, and it's perfect for Fender fans seeking an incredible vintage-inspired bass. The Gold Foil Jazz Bass features an alder body that gives it a punchy sound with pronounced upper mids. Its '60s "C" shaped maple neck has a comfortable, old-school feel, and its ebony fingerboard plays with a quick and smooth response. It also sports Lollipop tuners and a 1-piece pickguard that contribute to its charming retro aesthetic. Powering this bass is a gold foil single-coil pickup that delivers a driving, aggressive thump that's great for rock, blues, and everything in between. Play with a lighter touch, though, and this pickup will round out nicely, producing a full, sweet tone. That's the beauty behind the gold foil pickup - its sonic character changes considerably depending on how you play it. Complete with white pearloid dot inlays and aged white "witch hat" control knobs, the Fender Gold Foil Jazz Bass is great for players seeking a top-notch bass with a unique, vintage vibe.
