This, the 2017 Fender Standard Jazz... the last year for the Standard Series was a great example of these instruments.
The satin finish maple neck with the gloss finished maple fretboard on this bass is very, very nice. I like the black TV logo too.
Everything else is just your run of the mill original Jazz bass spec... and it's wonderful!
These will always count as a stand by workhorse of a bass, affordable but worthy of any stage.
Love it!

The Fender Standard Jazz Bass has been time-tested and musician-approved. Leo Fender designed and built the world's first electric bass guitar in late 1951 and every electric bass made since then is unquestionably a direct descendent. But Leo was never satisfied, so in 1960, he introduced the "deluxe model" Fender Jazz Bass. So inspired was that design that it has changed little over the years in appearance, though its evolution continues today with the 4-string Standard Jazz Bass. A shielded body cavity for quieter operation and a pair of pickups with surprising tonal versatility make the Fender Standard Jazz bass a smart buy.
