Independent shopping perspective
Fender’s American Professional II Jazz Bass V is a right-handed five-string bass with a lightweight roasted pine body, maple neck and fingerboard, and 20 narrow-tall frets. Rolled fingerboard edges, a sculpted neck heel, and satin neck finish shape its hands-on feel during long sets or sessions. Two revised V-Mod II Jazz Bass V single-coil pickups provide the model’s described articulation and warmth, with individual volumes and a master tone. Its 5-saddle HiMass Vintage bridge can be loaded string-through or hardtail.
