Description
The Fender USA Geddy Lee Signature Jazz Bass is a dynamic tribute to the legendary Rush bassist, designed with precision to capture the essence of Geddy Lee's iconic sound. This bass guitar merges the best elements from Lee's cherished instruments, including two Fender Custom Shop models and his original '72 Jazz Bass, delivering a rich and powerful tone that resonates with both energy and clarity.
Built with an alder body, this bass offers a balanced tonal foundation, while the custom thick "C" maple neck provides a substantial yet comfortable feel, perfect for both intricate riffs and solid grooves. The neck is adorned with a maple fingerboard featuring elegant white pearloid block inlays and a 9.5" radius, ensuring smooth playability across its 20 medium jumbo frets.
Central to its sonic prowess are the two custom-voiced American Vintage '70s Geddy Lee single-coil pickups, engineered to reproduce the punchy, growling tones of Lee's original setup. A Geddy Lee high-mass bridge ensures rock-solid intonation and sustain, while the vintage-style open-back tuners deliver reliable tuning stability. With a classic control setup of two volume knobs and a master tone control, this bass provides versatile tonal shaping for any musical style.
Whether you're a devoted Rush fan or simply seeking a high-performance bass with a storied legacy, the Fender USA Geddy Lee Signature Jazz Bass is an instrument that stands out in terms of both craftsmanship and heritage.

In the Simulation Theory film, Chris can be spotted playing the Geddy Lee signature Jazz Bass during the song Through Contagion. The Geddy Lee Signature can be seen in the back of the headstock during the minute 33:42.
The new U.S.A. Geddy Lee Jazz Bass is a new version that combines the specs and features of Lee’s three favorite basses—two Fender Custom Shop versions of his signature model and the original sleek black ’72 Jazz Bass that Rush’s revered bassist/vocalist has riffed away on in front of millions of devoted fans worldwide and on many a mega-selling album. The neck has a thicker custom profile, topped by a maple fingerboard with elegant white binding and white pearloid block inlays. For enormous tone that crackles with life and bristles with the energy, its two vintage-style single-coil Jazz Bass pickups are specially wound and voiced to sound like those on Lee’s prized 1972 original, and a Geddy Lee signature High-Mass bridge provides rock-solid intonation.
