The solid body electric bass guitar was invented by Leo Fender with the introduction of the Precision Bass in 1951. Following on from the success of the P-bass, Fender introduced the Jazz bass in 1960. Notable for it's slightly narrower neck, offset-waist body, and two single coil pickups, the Jazz Bass has stood the test of time to become one of the most played and recorded instruments in musical history having been chosen by such world-renowned bassists as Jaco Pastorius, Marcus Miller, Victor Bailey, Sting, Flea and Rush frontman Geddy Lee. The Fender Geddy Lee Jazz Bass electric bass guitar now puts a rock legend's instrument of choice in your hands.
From Fender's Artist series, this Jazz Bass is a replica of the Rush frontman's favoured axe. It features an alder body, a thin maple neck with a C-shaped profile and black block inlays, and two Vintage Jazz Bass single-coil pickups. Everything on this bass is made according to Geddy Lee's personal specifications, based on a '72 Fender Jazz Bass, one of the best-sounding and most versatile basses ever made. Whether your style is rock, metal, hardcore, funk, blues, country, or jazz, the Geddy Lee Jazz Bass has you covered.
