The new Made in Japan Junior Collection Jazz Bass® is ideal for entry-level players and young people who are just starting to play instruments with a 30-inch scale. By adopting a 30-inch scale, it is easier to press chords and reduces finger fatigue when pressing strings, and a compact body that has been scaled down to 94% and a new body cavity design to reduce weight. This provides better playability. The prolonged, undulating tone that is specific to Jazz Bass® is produced by the newly created Junior Collection Modified Single Coil Jazz Bass® pickups. Tuning stability is guaranteed by vintage-style tuners and a 4-saddle bridge.
