An American-made, high-quality, four-string bass guitar with an ebony fingerboard and an Ultraburst finish, the Fender American Ultra II Jazz Bass is ideal for contemporary professional playing. The select alder body has balanced and comfortable contours, and the quartersawn maple neck has a modern “D” profile and an ultra satin finish, so it plays quickly and smoothly while being quite stable. The ebony fingerboard is perfect for robust groove work and intricate playing thanks to its sleek feel, sharper attack, and expressive response across a 10″-14″ compound-radius configuration. A spectrum of tones, from clean, detailed highs to tight, punchy lows—all without hum—is made possible by a combination of a sophisticated active preamp, dual Ultra II noiseless Jazz Bass pickups, and S-1 switching. This bass combines contemporary accuracy with a touch of vintage-inspired elegance—it’s finished in Ultraburst. This Ultra II Jazz Bass should be your go-to if you want to take your music to the next level.
