Fender Review: Jazz Bass Standard

History:

Purchase: I bought my Fender Standard Jazz Bass at Morrell's Music in my hometown. I got it for about $420 with the sunburst finish.

What I Like About This Fender Jazz Bass Standard: I love the tonal options and the playability of the Jazz Bass. This bass is my first bass, but I played my friend's Ibanez for a while before I got the Jazz Bass. I prefer the Fender a lot more than the Ibanez. I play funk, rock, and metal and the Jazz Bass fills all genres.

What I Do NOT Like About The Fender Jazz Bass Standard: Really the only dislike that I have is the weight. Jazz Bass can get quite heavy.

Fender Jazz Bass Standard Quality Rating: This bass is beautifully constructed and is very reliable. I've hit my bass pretty hard and had no problems at all. The quality is great; I paid $420 and its worth every pennie.

Review Summary: The Fender Jazz Bass is probably one of the best basses out there, and I would recomend it to anyone who is looking for a new bass and even those who are looking for a first bass.

Rating of this Fender product: 5
