PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE

We're stoked to bring you this Fender American Ultra Jazz Bass V! This one's in a sweet "Ultraburst", which is a gorgeously refined take on the classic 3-Color Sunburst finish.

Elevating the J-Bass platform to new heights, this tasteful axe - adorned with high-end appointments like pearloid block inlays and binding on the rosewood fingerboard - features an intuitive new control layout with a redesigned preamp to allow you access to the finest of onboard tone-tweaking - and it looks awesome, as well!

As a spiritual successor to the "American Deluxe" series of past years, the Ultra J-Bass features a compound-radius fretboard, which makes high-register lead playing phenomenally comfortable, not to mention even easier laying down of tight rhythms and intricate grooves. The modern "D" neck profile fits your hand like a glove, making longer performances and sessions easier on your hands, and it's optimized nicely for the 5-string configuration. It feels effortless switching over from a 4.

The Ultra Noiseless Vintage pickups offer signature Jazz Bass tone with zero compromises, and have the bonus of being hum-free - no more frustration on the gig or in the studio. These pickups with the new preamp cranks out simply awesome bass tones, and the bevy of controls on tap, including a mode that even allows you to switch to passive operation, makes dialing in your perfect sound effortless.
