Set your sights on the limited-edition Suona Jazz Bass Thinline if you crave an elegant bass package with classic Fender tone. This groovy piece of excellence starts with a spruce top for clarity, while the ash body reels in the tone for low-end warmth and classic character. The Suona Jazz Bass’s Thinline design provides it with stunning levels of warm resonant tones that are brought forth through the custom-designed Suona pickups. Not to mention, you can make fast runs and hit thunderous grooves thanks to the roasted flame maple neck carved into a comfortable Modern “C” shape. The luxurious ebony fingerboard brandishes 20 frets and is carved to a vintage compound radius. Echoing the masterful work of a legendary artisan, the Fender Suona Jazz Bass Thinline perfectly blends tradition with modern innovation.

Artistry in every detail





Looking to change up your stale solidbody routine? Try a Suona Thinline. The Jazz Bass in the series doles out delightfully warm and resonant tones from its semi-hollowbody constructed of clear-sounding Italian Alpine spruce and resonant ash. Fender’s always made it easy to groove with a J Bass, and this Suona Thinline rocks a Modern “C” flame maple neck topped with silky smooth ebony and a vintage compound radius that runs from 7.25 inches to 9.5 inches. One look and you can tell Fender gave the Suona Thinline series a classy look. Vintage-styled hardware like the Pure Vintage reverse open-gear tuners and 4-saddle HiMass vintage bridge give this axe character and set it up for high performance. The matching headstock sets off the ebony fingerboard, and a refined F-hole cut into the upper bout signals the unique tones held within.





Dynamic pickups designed just for the Suona Thinline series





But what about the pickups? Don’t worry, we’re just getting there! The Suona Jazz Bass Thinline features a pair of custom-designed Suona Jazz Bass single-coils ready to electrify this bass’s semi-hollow tones. You’ll find that these pickups rock any groove with dynamic and distinctive tones. Sweetwater has also found that they’re full of rich harmonics and remarkable depth. Just like a J Bass should, the Suona Thinline offers you a master tone and one volume knob for each pickup. We think you’re going to love this stunning Fender!
