All about the Fender American Vintage II 66 Jazz Bass
The Fender American Vintage II series is not only visually inspired by the historic designs that made music history. Fender has also reproduced many details typical of the era exactly: Bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and pickups that are carefully matched to the tone of the original model year. Thanks to traditional Fender craftsmanship, each instrument embodies the authentic character and sound of the original model.
Don Randall at Fender Sales didn't want to rest on the success they had achieved. He pushed for the development of a modern high-end bass. The result was the Jazz Bass, which is now considered an icon. The neck was narrow at the nut, making it fast and smooth to play. The body was also slimmed down and was given the famous ‘shifted’ offset waist and the contours of the Jazzmaster. In 1966, the evolution of the instrument had reached its peak. The American Vintage II 1966 Jazz Bass Left-Hand offers plenty of substance for the fretting hand with its hard rock maple neck in a strong U-profile. Vintage Tall Frets sit on the 7.25" Round Lam rosewood fingerboard. The white neck binding, pearloid dots, ‘lollipop’ tuning pegs, two volume controls with Master Tone, a matching lacquered headstock and the four-ply tortoiseshell pickguard are typical of the 1966 production year for this J-Bass®. The strings run over four threaded string saddles and the sound is provided by two Pure Vintage ‘66 Jazz Bass pickups.

Die Fender American Vintage II Serie orientiert sich nicht nur optisch an den historischen Designs, die Musikgeschichte geschrieben haben. Auch viele zeittypische Details haben wir exakt reproduziert: Bodies, Hälse und Hardware, Premium-Finishes sowie Pickups, die sorgfältig auf den Ton des ursprünglichen Modelljahres abgestimmt sind. Jedes Instrument verkörpert dank traditioneller Fender Handwerkskunst den authentischen Charakter und Klang des jeweiligen Originalmodells.
Don Randall bei Fender Sales wollte sich nicht auf erreichten Erfolgen ausruhen. Er drängte darauf, einen modernen High-End-Bass zu entwickeln. Herausgekommen ist der Jazz Bass, der heute als Ikone gilt. Der Hals war am Sattel schmal, wodurch er sich schnell und flüssig spielen ließ. Auch der Body wurde verschlankt und bekam die berühmte „verschobene” Offset-Taille und die Konturen der Jazzmaster. 1966 war die Evolution des Instruments auf ihrem Höhepunkt angekommen.
Der American Vintage II 1966 Jazz Bass Left-Hand bietet mit dem Hard Rock Maple Hals im kräftigen U-Profil viel Substanz für die Greifhand. Auf dem 7.25” Round Lam Palisander-Griffbrett sitzen Vintage Tall Frets. Typisch für das Produktionsjahr 1966 sind bei diesem J-Bass® das weiße Halsbinding, Perloid-Dots, „Lollipop” Stimmwirbel, zwei Volumeregler mit Master Tone, eine passend lackierte Kopfplatte und das vierlagige Tortoiseshell-Pickguard. Die Saiten laufen über vier Gewinde-Saitenreiter, den Sound liefern zwei Pure Vintage ‘66 Jazz Bass Pickups.
Die American Vintage II Serie bringt klassische Fender Modelle in ihrer ursprünglichen Form zurück. Ideal für Musiker, die unseren Vintage-Ton und das dazugehörende Spielgefühl lieben und höchste Qualität zu schätzen wissen - bis zur letzten Schraube.
