PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE

We're proud to present this beautiful Fender USA Geddy Lee Jazz Bass! That distinct Geddy Growl can now be had right at your fingertips. The neck is just a bit thicker than your standard Jazz bass, but once you get your hands on it, you won't want to Leave that Thing Alone!

The neck feels somewhere in between a P and a J neck shape, but still is very comfortable and not too thick, making it comfortable to play for hours on end. The action and playability on this bass is exceptional. The Custom Voiced Vintage '70s Jazz Bass pickups in the '70s pickup position have all the punch and snap you need while still maintaining clarity. The high-mass bridge adds more sustain than we've ever felt from a J, and it also helps with intonation and tuning stability.

Manufacturer's Description

Mean, Mean Stride

Geddy Lee Jazz Bass is a unique instrument combining the features and specifications of Lee's three favorite basses—two Fender Custom Shop versions of his signature model and his original sleek '72 Jazz Bass—that Rush's revered bassist/vocalist has riffed away on before millions of devoted fans worldwide and on many mega-selling albums.

Features

  • One-piece maple neck with custom thicker profile
  • 9.5"-radius maple fingerboard with 20 medium jumbo frets
  • White binding and white pearloid block inlays
  • Dual vintage-style single-coil custom Jazz Bass pickups
  • Antique white pearloid pickguard

A Greatest Hits Instrument

Lee's new signature bass blends the best features of his two Custom Shop models with those of his original ’72 J Bass®.

Custom "C" Neck Shape

A thicker "C" profile imparts a more substantial feel to the slim and comfortable J Bass® neck.

Geddy Lee High-Mass Bridge

Specially designed with direct input from the acclaimed Rush bassist, the High-Mass bridge on this bass has a cool contemporary look. It also has a lot of metal, which means it has a lot of mass for rock-solid sustain, intonation and tuning stability.

White Binding and Inlays

White appointments, including sleek pearloid block inlays, instill elegance into this awesomely energetic instrument.

Custom Voiced Pickups

A pair of American Vintage ’70s Lee signature pickups provides plenty of punch and clarity along with genuine vintage Fender vibe.

Special Headstock Signature

Lee's signature the back of the headstock commemorates the lasting legacy of one of rock 'n' roll's most versatile and technical bassists.
