Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The black Classic Vibe ’70s Jazz Bass V brings a five-string layout and 34-inch scale to a familiar Jazz Bass-style platform. Its passive pair of Fender-designed alnico single-coil pickups is controlled by separate pickup volumes and a master tone, allowing you to set the blend between pickups and roll back high end from the instrument. A slim C-shaped maple neck, 9.5-inch maple fingerboard, and narrow-tall frets shape the playing surface, while the poplar solidbody carries vintage-inspired styling.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Bass parts that need a five-string instrument with the extra lower range described for this model.
- Players who want to blend two passive single-coil pickups from separate volume controls.
- Studio or rehearsal work where a 34-inch-scale, right-handed bass suits the player.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
