I got the left handed version a while back. Had big expectations from a brand like Fender, even though it's a mexican build, but still, it's not a Squier, right?Immediately after unpacking, I saw the following flaws:- one screw missing on the second tuner- a drop of hardened glue next to the bridge pick-up (took me ages to clean it without damaging the body paint)- delivered with dead strings... I mean dead like they've been used extensively for 5 years- the frets are cut horribly, I could feel the edges while sliding my fingers across the neck, plus they look horrible (I have an ultra-low budget (80 euro) Harley Benton bass, made in China, with stellar fretwork, look amazing at the edges and the neck edge is smooth all the way)- the truss rod wrench size is ... MoreI got the left handed version a while back.

The package contained a metric 5 mm Allen wrench... Waste of metal.For a 650 euro bass... anyone would expect more.It plays well, it sounds well, but you have to do some factory work that wasn't done in the factory.Can't help but wonder how low the quality is on the Squier series...

These are classic for a reason. From the feel to the tone, this bass can almost do it all. There may only be three knobs, but you have great control over the tone. With everything turned up, you get a great, almost scooped sound perfect for slap. With the bridge pickup and tone rolled back a little, you can even get a good P bass sound going.The neck is fantastic, the pau ferro looks and feels great, and everything looks classy.

I was excited to buy my first Fender and the Sam Ash website had great price listed on a MIM player jazz bass- almost too low. I calld to make sure it wasn't a floor model and the sales rep assured me it was new in the box. Sadly, when it arrived, there was a crack in the neck. I returned it to my local Sam Ash store. They ordered me a replacement. The second bass had a bow in the neck that could not be fixed, even after tightening the truss rod. The third replacement had the same problem with the bow in the neck. Three strikes you're out in my book. Either the Sam Ash warehouse is not climate controlled or they bought "B" stock batch of bases from a questionable supplier. The only positive thing out of this whole situation was the people at the Margate Sam Ash were ... MoreI was excited to buy my first Fender and the Sam Ash website had great price listed on a MIM player jazz bass- almost too low.

I have owned a pretty full run of different Jazz Basses... Squiers, Fender MIM Standards, Geddy Lee Bass, etc. This new Fender Player Jazz is a huge upgrade (second to the Geddy Lee I had). I wondered how this would compare to the MIM Standards and the Player Series is closer to the American stuff from 10 years ago. It looks and feels deluxe. The pickups sound premium. In the past, with the Standard Series, I would be modding it out. The MIM Standards never felt finished to me, but this Player Series is a different animal. Like I graduated to something professional. The only mods are a new tortoiseshell pickguard, flatwound strings and chrome ashtray covers. And I feel guilty about THOSE mods! The action is where is should be, nice and low. Fret edges are SLIGHTLY ... MoreI have owned a pretty full run of different Jazz Basses...

The action is where is should be, nice and low. Fret edges are SLIGHTLY rough, but no biggie. Tuners are super smooth. The only two things I find real fault with is under the pickguard, the wiring route is exposed. Even my Squiers are solid under the guard and have discreet holes drilled for wiring. Not here. AND I would have loved more of a tinted neck. But those are minor complaints. The finish on it feels thinner that what I expected... and that's a good thing. I hate the finishes that look and feel like the guitar is covered in 1/4 inch of plastic. All around, this is an outstanding value!
This is the nicest guitar I've owned out of 10 or so (mostly basses). That said, it's also the most I've spent on a guitar. Because of this, I took the full 40 day return policy window to decide if this was really gonna be The One. A month and a half later I was convinced that this beautiful instrument was right for me. To me this signified that it was time to take the pick guard off. What I found underneath truly depressed me. Beneath the pick guard lays ugly, unessecary cut outs in the body. One unfortunately large cut out around the neck pick up that extends towards the pots (housing wires), and one random circle cut out with a product number(?) or something written inside it. It seems like a small thing, but it makes me so sad. I figure most people attracted to ... MoreThis is the nicest guitar I've owned out of 10 or so (mostly basses).

It seems like a small thing, but it makes me so sad. I figure most people attracted to the Jazz bass are playing with fingers. We don't need pick gaurds. I think the pick guard looks nice, but I so badly just want to see more of that sexy natural wood sunburnt finish. My first bass was a Squire J bass. 10 years ago I took that pick guard off and everything was smooth and the neck pick up cut out was just as tight as the bridge. Can't see why the Mexico made version isn't the same. I'm cool with keeping the cover that surrounds the pots and jack, but man, I know it's not a fretless, but please just let me look like Jaco. I would advise fender to eliminate these ugly cut outs on future versions of the player series jazz bass and send me one for alerting them to the seriousness of this offense. Thank you. Peace.P.S.Kids, you will be so much cooler if you play bass without a pick guard, cuz pick guards are lame. The end.
I’ve played a Warwick FNA Jazzman for years so going to this new Fender bass was like night and day!I’m absolutely in love with this bass and I regret not buying one sooner. Compared to the Warwick the weight is light and comfortable, the neck is very comfortable to play on and tone is easy to dial in and just go.I would point out, and this is just a personal opinion but I don’t feel like the construction was of a standard I would expect for a £600 instrument. The hardware and tuners cogs look cheap and I also noticed towards the bottom of the neck, the lacquer overspills on to the fret wire a bit too much which give the impression that this was constructed by a machine and conveyor belt process so for me, the love in the construction seems to be missing which I ... MoreI’ve played a Warwick FNA Jazzman for years so going to this new Fender bass was like night and day!I’m absolutely in love with this bass and I regret not buying one sooner.

I would recommend fully!
I feel like this bass is perfect in every way and I cannot think of anything negative to say about it. My previous bass was a squire p/j and this Fender jazz is a massive upgrade from that. It looks, feels and sounds much better. Although, these two basses have quite different tonal personalities, so preference is something to consider but it obviously is of a higher quality construction and sound. I think that it is also vastly superior to the Ibanez 305. I am obsessed with it and hope that people are not deterred by the price. It is a ridiculously good price for such a premium beauty.P.s. Mon the Biff!
Purchased the Fender Player Jazz bass. Overall great looks and sound, but some quality issues from the Fender Mexico factory (not Andertons' fault):- First bass had very clear weird uneven blemish under the varnish on the sunburst body. Not awful, but if I was in-store I would never have chosen that particular item. Returned and swapped by Andertons, no quibbles.Second bass arrived. Overall happy, sounds great, but still a few issues with quality control and design.- Control plate was missing 2 screws and was moving around - how does that get through Fender quality control? Replacement screws sent free of charge by Andertons.- Nut has not been slotted correctly - high G must have been passed through a machine and slipped, string is clearly a couple of mm too ... MorePurchased the Fender Player Jazz bass.

Replacement screws sent free of charge by Andertons.- Nut has not been slotted correctly - high G must have been passed through a machine and slipped, string is clearly a couple of mm too close to fretboard edge and you can see the failed first pass. Doesn't really affect playability, but is annoying and I will get it corrected at some point. Again, points to poor quality control.- Fretboard (Pau Ferro) is really thin - on the Player series, at least. Neck fret dot markers in white are half over the mid-dark fretboard, half over the light maple neck. Very hard to see in low light levels. OK, so they're just an indicator for position, but the design isn't great.So overall, the bass sounds great and Andertons service was very good. Fender quality control loses the one star from the review.
I've tried twice to get a player jazz bass bit both had twisted necks, in 2 different spots. The first was around the 12th fret and the second at the 5th. I'm not sure if it's the Pau Ferro fingerboard, but I've definitely never had quality issues like thus before. I decided instead to go with a MM Stingray. I'll probably never buy another Fender bass.
My first fender and I'm so happy with this instrument! Packaging was meticulous and the bass arrived in perfect shape as it should have. It plays and sounds so well and the finish is really nice. Loving that buttercream! This is my fourth bass from guitar center and I've been satisfied every time.
