Enhanced Playability for Effortless Performance
The Fender Player II Modified Active Jazz Bass MN is built for smooth, fast, and comfortable playability. Its Modern "C"-shaped maple neck is designed for effortless movement, with a satin urethane finish that eliminates stickiness and ensures a natural, broken-in feel. The 9.5" radius maple fingerboard offers the perfect balance between comfort and control, while the rolled fingerboard edges make long playing sessions even more enjoyable. With 20 medium jumbo frets, this bass is ideal for fluid runs, expressive slides, and precise note articulation. From deep grooves to intricate solos, this neck is made for performance.
Powerful Noiseless Pickups With Classic Growl
Equipped with Player II Noiseless™ Jazz Bass pickups, this bass delivers the signature punch and growl that defines the Jazz Bass sound—without the unwanted hum. These pickups capture the warmth, articulation, and clarity that players expect from a Fender, while offering modern noise reduction for a cleaner signal. A bright, scooped tone works beautifully for funk, a warm, vintage thump suits blues, and a punchy attack cuts through in rock and heavier styles. No matter the setting, these pickups deliver dynamic response with premium shielding that keeps noise to a minimum.
Versatile Active Preamp With Precise Tone Shaping
The all-new 18V active preamp adds even more tonal flexibility, giving you total control over your sound. Designed for professional-grade performance, the 3-band EQ allows for precise adjustments to bass, midrange, and treble frequencies, while the active/passive tone control ensures a smooth transition between traditional and modern tones. The preamp remains completely transparent when set to unity, preserving the natural character of the bass. The active/passive mini toggle switch offers instant adaptability, letting you switch between vintage warmth and powerful, sculpted tones with ease. This makes the Player II Modified Active Jazz Bass an ideal choice for any musical style.
Rock-Solid Hardware for Tuning Stability and Sustain
Built for reliability, this Jazz Bass features a 4-saddle HiMass™ bridge, which increases resonance and sustain while providing exceptional tuning stability. The bridge’s high-mass design enhances the transfer of vibrations between the strings and body, resulting in a more dynamic and resonant tone. Tapered-shaft tuning machines improve string break angle at the nut, ensuring a more secure grip for rock-solid tuning. The Graph Tech® TUSQ® nut further enhances sustain while keeping tuning consistent, even during aggressive playing. With these high-quality components, this bass is built to perform night after night.
