Description
This second hand bass guitar is in great condition
The 2017 Classic ‘70s Jazz Bass is one of those instruments that instantly transports you to a specific era. Fender set out to capture the look, feel, and attitude of the great ‘70s Jazz Basses, and this model delivers that vibe with surprising authenticity,
The first thing that hits you is the unmistakable ‘70s styling:
- Three‑tone Sunburst with a glossy polyester finish
- Block inlays and binding on the neck
- Big black logo on the headstock
- Ash body (typical of the era) with a bright, snappy acoustic character
Neck profile:
The maple neck has a comfortable “U” shape—chunkier than a modern J‑Bass but not unwieldy. The gloss finish gives it that period‑correct feel, and the 7.25" radius keeps it vintage‑leaning without feeling restrictive.
Tone & Electronics
This is where the Classic ‘70s Jazz Bass really shines.
Pickups:
The pair of vintage‑style single coils deliver that unmistakable Jazz Bass growl:
- Bridge pickup: bright, aggressive, and articulate
- Neck pickup: warm, rounded, and supportive
- Both pickups: the classic scooped, funky J‑Bass sound
The 70s pickup spacing (bridge pickup slightly further back) adds extra bite and clarity, especially when slapped or played with a pick.
Overall character:
- Tight low end
- Pronounced upper mids
- Crisp, glassy highs
- Excellent definition in a mix
Playability
The Classic ‘70s Jazz Bass feels like a proper player’s instrument:
- The neck is stable and comfortable for both fingerstyle and slap
- The fretwork is generally solid on 2017 models
- The vintage radius encourages a lighter touch
- The bridge spacing (19 mm) gives plenty of room for expressive right‑hand work
Strengths
- Authentic ‘70s look and tone
- Punchy, articulate pickups with great clarity
- Excellent for funk, rock, and fusion
- Solid build quality
- Iconic Sunburst finish with vintage flair
The Fender Classic ‘70s Jazz Bass Sunburst (2017) is a standout choice for players who want the unmistakable look and sound of the 1970s without paying vintage prices. It’s bold, bright, punchy, and full of character. If you love that era’s aesthetic and tonal personality, this model delivers it with confidence and style.
