  • FENDER 5-STRING BASS
    All bassists appreciate the Fender 5-String Bass design for its increased range and fast action. The added fifth string is a high C, allowing faster technique with the lower frets and five additional notes at the top. A single split pickup positioned for maximum string response may be adjusted for any custom string action. Separate volume and tone controls enable the player to achieve a wide range of settings and are positioned for easy reach. The slim maple neck with rosewood fingerboard has the adjustable truss-rod. Individually adjustable bridges may be set for perfect string intonation and comfortable low playing action. "Off-set" waist design contributes to playing ease and comfort of the player. It places the arm in a natural position over the strings which allows more flexible playing technique. The 5-String Bass is finished in Shaded Sunburst or selected custom colors.

    5-String Bass Patents: 2,573,254-2,960,900-3,143,028.
