Inspired by the garage rock bands of the '60s and the classic cult guitars they played, the Gold Foil collection combines Fender®'s timeless design with the dazzling style of a bygone era.
The Jazz Bass® Gold Foil features an alder body, a mid-'60s C-shaped maple neck, an ebony fingerboard, and a single Gold Foil pickup for a full, powerful tone that complements its exceptional appearance. Other features include a matching painted headstock, 'candy' tuning machines, and 20 Medium Jumbo frets.
Long on looks and aces in the tone department, the Fender Gold Foil collection combines the lasting charm of mid-century guitars with the style and playability of an authentic Fender.
