Descrizione
One way to play lower notes on your bass guitar is to tune down the E string. A better option, however, is to purchase a five-string bass guitar like this black Fender Jazz Bass V from the American Standard series. This bass is equipped with an added big B string, offering you no less than five extra half notes below the standard E. Also, because this bass is equipped with two single-coil pickups, you'll no longer be bothered by a muddy sounding B string, leaving nothing other than a neat, clear tone. This is a genuine American Fender, so a high-quality bass guitar. What is more, it comes in a high-tech SKB case for safe transport.
The American Standard Jazz Bass V's construction
This five-string Jazz Bass has all the essential J-Bass features, such as a slender, asymmetrical body of lightweight alder and a surprisingly narrow neck for a five-string. This maple fretboard of this guitar provides somewhat more sparkling, fiercer trebles than a rosewood version would. The American Standard Jazz Bass V features two alnico 5 single-coil pickups that provide a full, powerful sound and are each equipped with their own volume control and separate master tone control. These three potentiometers allow you to conjure up a wide selection of amazing bass sounds with just the flick of a wrist. From fierce and clear to warm and sultry and everything inbetween, making it a true all-rounder.
Innovative features
Compared to a standard five-string bass guitar, this American Standard Jazz Bass V has had some rather progressive modifications. For instance, its neck features two graphite support rods to provide it with extra strength and stability. The neck will remain dead-straight as moisture and temperature changes no longer have any effect on it. Also, the bridge and machine heads have undergone a modern upgrade, while retaining their classic looks. The High Mass Vintage bridge is heavier, providing more tone and longer sustain. The Hipshot tuners, however, are 30% lighter than their predecessors, allowing for a better-balanced instrument so you'll no longer be bothered by a 'diving' neck.
