I’m getting one of these in that exact finish soon. It’ll be my first USA bass ever. You’re right about the pickup volumes not doing much past a certain point and that’s just one of Fender’s longtime quirks.

Great job Bob. I grew up with sunburst basses and guitars in the 70's - love em! Especially with black pick guards. Classy look.

Love your Bass Reviews, very honest and to-the point. I love your quote “We don’t all drive the same car, and we’re not all married to the same person” so true. I’m definitely a Sunburst type of guy myself as I own a few with that finish, well I’ll be looking out for more Videos. Thank you.

I only own a Jazz (American Professional in the Natural Ash finish) and it's heavy (4,7kg/10,36lbs) but I also own two American Performer instruments and so this was in my wishlist. But I can't justify another non '70s Jazz bass just based on its lighter weight.

Something about the sunburst on these looks so good! I got the American performer P-bass and its been excellent. It's every bit as high quality as my American professional J-bass. I really dont think the "vintage style" Bridge on these is any worse than the high mass bridge on the pro. Good review!

Hey Matt, I agree. Maybe I'm old school but I love that Sunburst also.

@@BobBlackBassThank you, Bob! I own a Fender P that I purchased new in 1977.. it had been custom ordered with a Jazz neck and then never picked up.. many, many, many notes later, I’m now considering purchasing the very Jazz Bass you’ve featured here to have for a spare. Of the two choices you presented (DiMarzio/Aguilar), which would provide more of a ‘punch’ when desired. I’ve always felt the Fender Jazz needs a bit more punch. (BTW, don’t we all wish we could play like Jaco)?!? Thank You Sir!!!

Is this yours Bob? Great choice if so but 60 cycle is a deal killer for me, drives me nuts.

Not mine. The hum was on the light side but I would probably change to noiseless pups.
