The Fender® Vintera III series delivers meticulously crafted vintage recreations that capture the authentic look, feel, and tone of iconic Fender guitars from the '50s, '60s, and '70s.

The Vintera® III Early '70s Jazz Bass® features an alder body and maple neck with maple or rosewood fingerboard for classic Fender tone that's full of punch and clarity. The early '70s "C"-shape maple neck sports binding and block inlays with 7.25" radius maple or rosewood fingerboard and vintage-tall frets. At its heart, you'll find a pair of vintage-style early '70s single-coil pickups that deliver all the punchy and articulate, warm and woody tone that made Fender® famous. Other features include a vintage-style 4-saddle bridge for rock-solid intonation and sustain and vintage-style tuning machines for enhanced tuning stability.

Embrace the authentic vintage spirit and legendary sound of Vintera® III – where every detail tells the story.
