Deluxe Series by Fender

Fender Deluxe series guitars and basses deliver the classic Fender sound and style at a real 'working musician' price-point. Despite their excellent value, they still offer modern features that ensure unparalleled playability. Crafted with quality Fender components, electronics and tonewoods, these instruments are perfect for live performances or studio use, whatever your level of experience.

Jazz Bass Pickups & Active Electronics

The Deluxe Jazz Bass features two Jazz Bass Vintage pickups with Noiseless™ technology to provide a true professional level of versatility and noise-free performance. The pickup signals can be blended to find your ideal tone, whether that is bright and punchy, warm and mellow, or anywhere inbetween. They are wired to an active preamp circuit with a 3-band EQ; this give access to a huge range of tones and musical applications. The preamp can be disengaged for a normal battery-free operation, ensuring you won't be caught-out at a gig if your battery runs flat.

Tonewoods

The classic Jazz Bass body shape is crafted from highly resonant alder and combined with a maple neck. The maple fingerboard provides a smooth playing surface for gliding along the strings. The neck has a modern specification with a 12'' radius and medium jumbo frets; this ensures a fast and comfortable playing feel.

The open gear tuners provide excellent tuning stability which is particularity important for a 5 string guitar. The Fender Deluxe Active Jazz Bass punches well above its weight and will be at home both on stage and in the studio.
