Angel Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Just a quick question - 4 & 5 string jazz basses , do they have the same size body dimensions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itu Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Not automatically. There are manufacturers who put bigger body to a 5- or 6-string bass. I find this a bit annoying, as the bigger usually means clumsiness and more weight. But your luthier is your friend: you can ask for a smaller body, if you like. Just like Rhonda Smith did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor J Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 If you're asking about Fender then generally yes. It's cheaper to CNC one shape and the cases for Jazz basses are universal, they fit both 4s and 5s the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
