Fender MonoNeon Jazz Bass V 5-String Bass, Maple Fretboard, Neon Yellow
The Bass has a repaired body crack.
This MonoNeon Jazz V is missing its original box and has minor cosmetic blemishes near the tuners.
Player's Perspective
Avante-garde soul and funk player MonoNeon epitomizes coolness in the bass world of today, and his new signature Fender Jazz V follows suit perfectly - this has got to be one of the coolest Fender basses we've gotten in in a long time. Immediately upon feasting your eyes on this beast, the loud and funky Neon Yellow finish sticks out in the best way, and the "traffic cone" orange-painted pickguard, matching orange headstock, and gold hardware on the extravagantly-adorned roasted maple neck with pearl inlays only adds to the unique charm. The roasted maple neck isn't just for show, either - the feel of it is just amazing especially when cranking out steady rhythms and grooves on the lower strings, and really helps to make the 5-string neck width feel comfortable for 4-string players. The stability of the neck also helps keep the low B string tight despite it being a standard 34" scale length as well.
This bass's unique specification doesn't end there, though - custom-wound Fireball™ pickups deliver fat, punchy tone inherently, while the active preamp with 3-band EQ and a variety of tone-shaping controls and a passive/active switch helps the bass adapt to any style of music, truly making this bass a jack of all trades.
For a bass that both warrants the reaction of "you don't see that every day" whilst remaining a true studio and live workhorse, the MonoNeon signature Jazz V should definitely be a contender for your next addition.
