Highlights
MODERN "D" NECK
Slim with wide shoulders, the “Modern D” neck profile works for any style of playing. Ultra rolled fingerboard edges and a silky, smooth Ultra satin finish make the neck effortless to play.
10”-14” COMPOUND-RADIUS
Built for speed and easy bending, the 10”-14” compound-radius fingerboard is rounded near the nut, becoming increasingly flatter as it nears the upper register.
ULTRA NOISELESS VINTAGE PICKUPS
The Ultra Noiseless™ Vintage pickups feature true classic Fender tone without hum.
ENHANCED BODY CONTOURS
The tapered neck heel allows unparalleled access to the upper registers of the fingerboard, while the sculpted rear body contour is designed for comfort.
REDESIGNED ACTIVE/PASSIVE PREAMP
Redesigned for the Ultra Noiseless Vintage bass pickups, this 18 volt preamp features sweeter highs, focused mids and more usable bass. An active/passive mini switch allows you to change modes on the fly.
HIMASS™ BRIDGE
The HiMass bridge delivers rock-solid sustain, intonation and tuning stability.
