#thoNAMM20
This bass actually has some vintage tone mojo that previous modern fenders lacked, nice job Fender, and great playing on the demo Julia.
I'm excited to see these Fenders!! That's not something I've said in ages!!
I also get super-excited about some of the simplest and beautiful things in life. Like a detuner on a great bass.
It really is the little things that make up the great things in life.
Excellent NAMM Fender Ultra video. You could hear the bass being played clearly and see the clearly.
More playing, less talking haha Julia is here to SLAPP ! // Guillaume
LOVE MY TONY FRANKLIN BASS!!!!
Actually it's been available for longer than any other signature instrument in Fender history.
Longest running, best made.
That bass sounds amazing in Julia's hands. I love the riff with all the ghost notes she plays at 2:45. I'm trying to get better at that style of playing and it's not easy.
4:19 Julia lights up for the d-tuna 😃 fretless 🤘🏽
I've owned 2 jazz basses, so I had to buy a third. I went with the Texas Tea on the Ultra. It's fantastic. A nice complement to the family.
Although I’m a jazz bass fan I have to say the Pbass sounds amazing here!!
"these feature your choice of fret board. ... color dependant. ... depending on color you will only have ONE CHOICE of maple or rosewood ..."
That clears it up.
We can choose the fretboard Fender decides to match with each paint color. So you get to choose what's already decided.
thanks Julia . . . and some nice sounds you pulled : very nice
Really beautiful basses, fantastic sounds😄
Some of the most awesome basses that I've seen to date!!! Fenders are legends for good reason!!! #INCREDIBLEINSTRUMENTS!!!!!
My gosh... Starting the video, I was impressed by the size of that frisco !
These bass are very nice. I want both the PJ and the J bass
Great coverage.. also i think i am in love with her... her playing of course... or
ooo look at that thing....Nice finishing fender. I'm digging all the sparkle I'm seeing
Awesome bass !!! Nice playing too !!!
After watching this video I was curious and got on the Fender website. One thing that struck me as odd is, it appears that they don't string the American basses thru the body anymore. Maybe I'm just too old school but I always thought that was one of the nicest features of the American Standards an American Deluxe Jazz basses.
The whole time the bass was set on front pickup
Great Bass
I wish they'd bring the American Standard S1 back. It's a Fender Jazz Bass with a button that transforms it into a Rickenbacker! Epic!
Transfender?
Has a button that changes the wiring of the pickups from parallel to series. If you ever played a Rickenbacker 4001 or 4003. They have a second Jack that says Rick o sound. Sounds a little like that. They came out in 2003. I believe they only made them for a couple years but not sure. They're really nice back when fenders were still strung through the body.
Very nice basses!
Congratulations, the music show for riches started.
EPICO
Cool basses, I like them but they are expensive though.
whats up SLAPPERS
SLAP LIKE NOW!
EPICO
I got the jazz bass. Return it after 2 set ups in 3 weeks. Fret buzz on the E then the G string. But super good looking bass. Not sure if just that neck or what but it bug me.
Try a Schecter Diamond J-4 or a Lakland Skyline. I own both and they are way better than anything Fender puts out, and not just "for the money." ( You may want to change the pickups, but that's personal preference ) My Schecter Diamond J-4 smokes any Fender I've owned or played, the playability is excellent, low action without fret buzz. An almost $2,000 dollar bass shouldn't have fret buzz anywhere. The nut and fretwork should be immaculate at that price. After being continually disappointed with the quality and workmanship ( specifically the fretwork and nut filing ) of Fender guitars I now play Schecter Diamond, ESP LTD, Lakland Skyline and G&L. Less expensive and better quality. Glad I switched.
Thanks for the tip. Here n Canada at least where I live. I have to go down to Seattle to the Bass shop . To play any of them.
Fantastic,,,,, screw the haters. You could give them a million in cash and they would complain that it's all in hundred dollar bills instead of 20s. Looking forward to buying two or 3 basses out of this collection.
How does the ultra jazz bass compare to the Sandberg California TT
Goddam, I love these Ultras! I wish they had gold hardware and ebony board options. I gotta get one of those Jazz basses🔥
thoNAMM? Clever....
Haha! Thanks! :) It would've been a missed opportunity not to call our NAMM videos like that. lol
//cheers, Kris
How does this ultra jazz bass compare to a San berg California TT
Last 2 had no block inlays? 🤔
Still waiting for a 5 string version of Tony's
that JB
Julia, Did you prefer the new J-Bass or P-Bass?
Of course none of them probably come in left. Marcus Miller has every model for both hands.
2 grand for the ultras. I guess not too bad for an American made fender.
I really want to go back to Fender, but I have a Schecter Diamond J-4 for $800 that plays better than any Fender bass ( Custom Shop or production line ) I've owned or played. Also, the Lakland Skyline P/J bass is also very good for about $1,250. I can't help but feel we're paying way more extra money just for the name "Fender." In addition, stock Fender pickups are anywhere from mediocre to terrible, especially compared to a set of Seymour Duncans.
if only Julia rolled up those bridge pickups!!
when will the fender start installing strap blocks on the bass guitar?
My American Ultra came with strap locks.
Mine too
Looks like it has started. I think mine has. Yet to open the box.
Cool , a fat Tony signature bass 😅🤣😅🤣😅🤣😅🤣😅🤣
Still waiting for a 5 string pj....
😍
You mean they don't have a rechargeable phone battery YET! ( You can send me a check latter!).
Sold my Fender and bought 2 Sires with the money...
Ted Knecht good for you mate !! Dont shit on fender there were the first in this industry you wouldn’t have all those bass if it wasn’t for fender
@@dtales77 Actually... Audiovox made the first electric bass. Back in 1935 it was sold from the catalog as the Model 736.
I do agree though that it was Fender that popularized electric basses.
Dennis Vlaanderen yup audiovox 1935 but it was fender that pushed the industrie , let say not the first but one of the first
Good for you! Maybe i need to sale mine and buy 28 shity aliexpress basses?
Now that's good business. BLAMMO!!!
Julia
Too bad this bass doesn't have 70's pickup spacing...
Side dots on a fretless in not really a new thing 🤔
"Fender new" hahahaha... All basses look the same...
Hey man, they got some new colours, sparkly ones at that. Oh and don't forget about those new lil body contours. lol
Fender new is Sire old. This bass looks like a copy of the sire v7
Ultras are all ultra-heavy unfortunately
Same shit, different name..
So... I hope these strings are flatwounds because otherwise this bass sounds like sh**... Is it just me ?!
Basically a G&L?
Hahhaha
"Ultra noiseless vintage pickups"
Whatever that means
remember folks all electric basses sound the same
These are built for performance and tone and then she started slapping and I was like what a sh*t slap tone is that, these basses really sucks and are extremely heavy... Sucks... 🤦🏾♂️
Julias playing is on point, my dear lord does she have the groove
Although one small suggestion to improve your english pronounciation (imho): you seem to tense up a lot of unnecessary muscles in the mouth/toung area in order to produce some specific sounds, try identify those sounds and try make them relaxing everything, a bit like your arms are relaxed while you play bass! Idk, just my 2 cents on it, hope this is helpful :)
Not helpful, Greg. Nobody cares about her pronunciation and I’d hazard to say that a great many people find her accent endearing and adorable.
Yet you still think pronunciation is spelt pronounciation lol
Cue the white knights
