Few bass players in the history of rock stand out like the man who helped blast the Red Hot Chili Peppers to global success. This Road Worn Fender Flea Jazz Bass captures both the tone and the spirit of this iconic bass player.
Battered, loved, and well played, Flea's very own '61 Jazz Bass is reflected in this highly accurate copy, from the worn-down paint and neck plate engraving to the broken-in feel of its period-correct U-shaped maple neck. The classic 7.25"-radius rosewood fingerboard and traditional 1.5" nut make this one of the most comfortable and playable basses you'll ever pick up. Classic single-coil J Bass tone comes from the Pure Vintage '64 pickups.
