Description

I asked John Suhr & Co. to create a modern take on Jaco's classic defretted Jazz bass. So this one has a lot of aesthetic similarities, but more muscular modern electronics. With the 3-Tone Sunburst, notice that there is no red where the "original" pickguard would have been placed, just as Fender would have sprayed it back in the day. And the fretboard is rosewood, and it comes complete with filled fret slots and a tough gloss finish.

I couldn't be more pleased with the results. The bass looks and sounds fantastic.

Here's our bass instructor Cameron McLaughlin busting out a quick version of Jaco's "The Chicken". He makes the bass sound very nice, eh?
