Fender Custom Shop '68 Jazz Bass Guitar, Journeyman Relic Aged Black with Handwound Vintage J Bass Pickups

This Fender Custom Shop '68 J-Bass embodies the essence of an era that pioneered music, combining vintage vibe with modern flair. Built from a premium 2-piece alder body, this '68 J-Bass mirrors the classic '68 J Bass silhouette, staying true to its roots while adding a touch of modernity.

The Journeyman Relic finish in Aged Black tells a story and works to enhance resonance at the same time. From the black opaque block inlays on the quarter-sawn maple fingerboard, to the Micarta white 3/32" side dots, every nuance contributes to an instrument that's as visually beautiful as it is sonically powerful. 

A '60 J Bass "U" neck profile makes for a comfortable grip, allowing players to navigate the fretboard with comfort and ease. A 7.25" fingerboard radius also provides that familiar vintage feel, while the bone nut with a 1.5" width creates optimal string spacing. Form and function collide with 20 vintage-style frets, offering ample space for fretting, while handwound Vintage J Bass pickups hold down the tone, with the marriage of a lead bridge pickup and a rhythm neck pickup, coupled with the '64 J Bass control configuration (Vol, Vol, Tone).

The '68 J-Bass is yet another testament to the legacy of the Fender Custom Shop, where each instrument is built meticulously from the ground up.
