(SOLD) Fender American Performer Jazz Bass Sunburst 2021
Fender American Performer Jazzy, sunburst, made in USA 2021. The American Performer series replaced the previous Am Special and Highway One as the entry to Fender's USA-made offerings. It's not fancy, but it feels and sounds good. The neck is a slim modern C shape, finished in super slick satin; it's very agreeable. At a whisker over 4kg, it's a pretty lightweight example, so it'd be a handy tool for a working player. The tone sits comfortably in the JB-genre: snappy, round and immediate with a tuneful fundamental note. The sunburst finish hasn't gone out of style in the last seven decades, so you should be pretty safe there. Note: can confirm this is safe for Australian Performers also.
