DIY Electric Bass Kit - Jazz Bass (5 Strings, Mahogany)
Invented by Fender in 1960, Jazzmaster bass has been creating its own position in the world of bass player. Distancing itself from Precision bass, Jazzmaster bass produces brighter and richer sound. And if you are a bass player, and plan to build a bass mimicing Jazzmaster or Jaguard guitars, then our Jazzmasster-style bass kit is here for you. Our Jazzmasster-style kit possesses solid bass body in mahogany with maple spalted topped, maple bass neck with ebony fretboard, that allow bass builders to build a Jazzmaster bass as desired.

The Jazzmaster-style bass kit provides a unique opportunity for bass builders to craft a brighter and richer sounding instrument, differentiated from the typical Precision bass. This kit includes a solid mahogany body with a striking spalted maple top, and a Canadian maple neck paired with an ebony fretboard, ensuring exceptional quality and aesthetics.
Guitar Build Levels and Challenges
The Jazz Bass Kit is perfect for beginner builders, guiding you smoothly from start to finish: the alder body’s moderate porosity means it needs minimal or even optional filler for a clean finish (your maple neck will need none), the bolt-on neck with zero inclination makes fitting effortless, and the simple two-pickup electronics with our solderless system keep wiring straightforward without overwhelming switch options. Finally, the vintage-style bass bridge lets you adjust each saddle for precise intonation and string-height setup, and—with no neck angle to complicate things—dialing in your first action is easier than ever.
