Just how good are the Fender Player Series Jazz and Precision …
Oct 24, 2012 · The only things you're really paying for on the American ones are a reinforced neck, rolled edges, steel bridge, better tuners and maybe a beefier pickup sound but the Player series can be upgraded with most all of that AND still be cheaper than an American made Fender. The necks on the Player Jazz' are terrific so no idea what the issues with ...
NBD - Fender Player Series Jazz! - TalkBass.com
Jan 9, 2014 · Last winter me and my wife went on a trip to the Portland, Oregon area and stumbled upon Five Star Guitars in nearby Beaverton. Among the nice selection of Fender basses they had, believe it or not, the Player Jazz was the best playing. The moment we got back home I KNEW right away to sell some guitar-related gear to make room for a Jazz bass.

Dec 12, 2017 · A couple days ago I got my new Fender Jazz Bass. This bass is part of the “Player Series” instruments and was build in Ensenada México. I went with the Maple neck with a black body and classic white pickguard. The Neck has a gloss finish on the fingerboard and Headstock. However the back of the neck has a very smooth satin finish.
Fender Standard vs Player - TalkBass.com
Mar 5, 2019 · Not to mention rosewood fretboards look considerably better than Pau Ferro ones in my opinion. I didn't try the new jazz basses as I was specifically in the market for P basses, but they really sound a little too bright to me even after fiddling with the tone knob, if I didn't know better, it sounded almost like a jazz bass.

May 21, 2024 · So I got the new Fender Player series J bass in Birch Green. First off, I really love the color. The green adds a certain thickness to the lower mids; I don't know why I haven't had one sooner. Anyway, I had it overnighted on Saturday, and it arrived two hours before I had to leave for a gig. I...
Pickup upgrade for my fender player series jazz bass
May 27, 2018 · I know this is an old thread/post; but I totally agree; I'm about to swap out the pickups in my Player Plus Jazz V (later on/in a few actually) for that same exact reason; they're being replaced with the Fender Ultra noiseless pickups (which I believe to be "overwound"), a Lot more output, much better low end, Waaay punchier; and believe it or ...
Sire Marcus Miller vs. Fender Players Series | TalkBass.com
Mar 24, 2019 · I’ve had a few Sire Gen1s, a Fender Player Jazz, and currently a Sire V7 Gen2. I love the Sire for the tone, build, and feel. The Player series are really well made and a great release (my Player P Bass is wonderful). I agree with what you said, the Jazz neck on the Player felt a bit off to me, simply preference and not a dig on the Fender.
Fender player series jazz bass? | Page 3 | TalkBass.com
Jun 20, 2005 · As for my 2021 MIM Fender Player Jazz bass, this information is incorrect. It's the blueburst GC limited edition with the maple fretboard, though. At any rate, the pickups are the new alnico 5s and sound great. There is no discernable fret …
Comparisons of Fender P Basses - TalkBass.com
Aug 24, 2016 · I own a Player (Jaguar) and have played a pro (fretless jazz) and both play great. The main issue I have is the price difference; the player is very capable and sounds great so if I was going to spend the money of a pro or performer (which are both in the 2K range in Canada) it opens up a lot of other options that are more tempting in my opinion (Music Man, G&L etc.).
