Built for players chasing the unmistakable feel and tone of a golden-era instrument, the Fender Vintera III Early '70s Jazz Bass delivers classic style and sound with modern reliability — available now at Haggerty’s Music. This model captures the spirit of the early 1970s, a time when the Jazz Bass defined the sound of countless recordings with its punchy articulation and smooth playability.

From its alder body to its vintage-inspired appointments, this bass offers the signature tonal balance that has made the Jazz Bass a staple across genres. Expect tight, focused lows, growling mids, and clear, singing highs that sit perfectly in any mix. Whether you're laying down funk grooves, driving rock lines, or exploring jazz phrasing, the dual single-coil pickup configuration provides a wide tonal palette with expressive dynamics and clarity.

The early '70s “C” neck profile, paired with a round-laminated rosewood fingerboard and vintage-style 7.25" radius, delivers a comfortable, familiar feel that invites long sessions on stage or in the studio. Block inlays and binding add a touch of vintage elegance, while the included gig bag ensures easy transport. This is a bass that honors its roots while remaining ready for today’s working musician.
