FenderVintera III Early '70s Jazz Bass - Rosewood Fingerboard, Black
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Finished in Black, the Vintera III Early ’70s Jazz Bass pairs an alder offset body with a maple neck and round-laminated rosewood fingerboard. Its two vintage-style early-’70s single-coils use separate volume controls and a master tone, letting you set the pickup blend directly from the bass. The bridge unit sits closer to the bridge for added attack and definition. Bound fingerboard edges and pearloid block inlays complete its early-’70s visual direction.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Extended seated sessions or strap-worn live sets where the offset body’s balance and comfort matter.
- Funk or fusion parts that benefit from articulate pickup response and the bridge pickup’s added attack.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Left-handed players; this version is listed in a right-handed orientation.
