Inspired by the garage rock bands of the sixties and the cult classic guitars they played, the Gold Foil Collection combines timeless Fender designs with the dazzling style of a bygone era. The Gold Foil Jazz Bass features an alder body, mid ‘60s C”-shaped maple neck with bound ebony fingerboard and a Gold Foil mini humbucker for full, punchy tone that complements the exceptional good looks. Other features include a matching painted headstock, ‘lollipop’ tuning machines and 20 Medium Jumbo frets. Long on looks and aces in the tone department, the Fender Gold Foil Collection combines the enduring charm of midcentury mail-order guitars with the style and playability of an authentic Fender.
