Fender`s American Standard range has finally got a dual-humbucker Dimension with four strings, modern design and Fender hardware, as well as electronics.
Fender`s American Standard series is the heart and soul of the catalog and the true measure of all things Fender. For the right idea on what this brand is all about, one must check out this iconic series. In both the guitar and bass sections, Fender`s American Standard series sets the bar and represents the standard against which all other Fender models are measured and placed throughout the catalog. And even beyond the Fender catalog, this series serves as a universal etalon and guide line. Among the bass players, this series is often divided into the J and P sections, but Fender is so much more than these two iconic basses. As of 2015, third major category called Dimension will have to be introduced, as Fender represents the mighty American Standard Dimension Bass IV HH. This modern four stringer has the price tag set pretty high, it costs $1,399.
Fender American Standard Dimension Bass IV HH is the star of this article and the only model in the review section. It is a solid and double-cut bass guitar with simple bolt-on construction and modern (in Fender terms) design. Flat-top alder body of this model is paired with a bolted maple neck to form the classic Fender base. A pair of fat humbucking Fender Dimension pickups is in the heart of this four-stringed rocker. Versatile and adjustable pickups can deliver virtually anything and everything. Simple controls unit includes two volume and one tone knob. Hardtail bridge, full-length 34” scale, black plastic pickguard, vintage-styled Fender tuners, compound 9.50”-14” radius and a 21-fret maple fingerboard with dot inlays complete the major specs list.
