Every great bass starts with a great foundation, and the Fender Standard Series Jazz Bass Body delivers exactly that. Crafted from premium alder wood—a tonal favorite among bass players for its balanced frequency response and punchy midrange—this body provides the perfect canvas for your musical vision.
The body features Fender's signature gloss polyester finish in classic black, not just for looks but for protection. This durable finish preserves the wood's natural resonance while giving your build a professional, stage-ready appearance. The alder wood itself is carefully selected for its consistent grain pattern and tonal characteristics, ensuring your bass will have that classic Fender warmth and clarity.
This body comes equipped with all the essential mounting points you need for a proper Jazz Bass build. The four-bolt neck pocket mount ensures secure neck attachment, while the five-screw vintage-style bridge mount provides authentic mounting for your bridge assembly. The single/single (SS) pickup routing is precision-cut to accommodate standard Jazz Bass pickups, so you won't need any additional routing or modifications.
Notably, this body features no pickguard mounting holes, giving you complete freedom in designing your control layout. Whether you prefer a traditional pickguard or a more modern, minimalist look, the choice is entirely yours. This clean slate approach makes it perfect for both traditional builds and custom modifications.
Whether you're a seasoned luthier or a passionate DIY enthusiast, this Fender Standard Jazz Bass Body provides everything you need to create an instrument that plays and sounds incredible. It's more than just a piece of wood—it's the foundation for your musical expression, ready to come to life under your hands.
