Fender Jaco Pastorius Jazz Bass FL



Play the bass that carried Jaco's musical genius to the world.

Pastorius was a beacon for generations of aspiring bass players, bridging the gaps between R&B, rock, jazz, classical, and Caribbean musics. He changed the musical world with his uncanny gifts and visionary approach to the instrument. And he did it with one fundamental tool -- a Fender Jazz Bass. Fender has re-created Jaco's well-played Jazz Fretless in painstaking detail, so you can enjoy a special connection with this great artist.
