The rounder vintage radius works particularly well for traditional fingerstyle, pick playing and supportive bass lines. Players accustomed to much flatter modern boards may notice the difference initially.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the benefit of a nitrocellulose finish?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this Custom Shop model, nitrocellulose lacquer is primarily part of the vintage-inspired construction and ageing approach. It also allows Fender’s Relic treatment to reproduce checking and wear associated with older instruments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Relic wear considered damage?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The factory-applied ageing is an intentional part of the instrument’s original specification. Any individual Pre-Owned wear needs to be considered separately from the factory Relic treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan this Jazz Bass be used with pedals and modern amp modellers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Its passive output works with conventional bass amplifiers, pedalboards, DI boxes, multi-effects processors, amp modellers and recording interfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this a good bass for recording?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The ability to blend the two pickups makes the Jazz Bass particularly useful for adjusting attack and midrange character to suit different arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I request a closer look before purchasing?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Our \u003cstrong\u003eRequest a Video Demo\u003c\/strong\u003e option is particularly useful for a Custom Shop Relic bass because it allows you to examine the ageing, finish and overall individual
