Fender Deluxe Dimension Bass IV – Review & Demo

Carefully crafted from top materials such as the Ash body, Maple neck and Fender Hi-Mass Bridge, the Dimension Bass is sure to be a success…right? Let’s find out.
In this video, Jimi reviews the Fender Deluxe Dimension Bass IV in Natural Gloss. We run through the design, the specs and even a tone demo.

I have the 5 string MIM. Absolutely lovely to play, and an amazing aray of tonal configurations. I disagree with the neck profile though, it's definitely a Jazz Bass neck, NOT a P-bass. Shame I never got to play the American version.
Wonderful and very underrated bass. Kinda reminds me of the G&L's tones.
Looking forward to buy one any time soon.
Slap please
Great review, thank you! Is what we hear during the tone demo a DI-signal?
I found one of these basses, bought it, but it came without the electronics. Do you have any idea of a preamp that works or adapts to it, without making any dramatic adjustments?…I write from Costa Rica, and here is very hard to find parts for this bass, the dealer store from Fender , doesn´t have.
I love how you play the same part over and over while you show the different eq settings. That makes it so easy to compare settings.
Great job .
I own a dimension deluxe 5 HH and I love my bass
It's a Stingray attempt. Same electronics. Killed off by Sterling range. Stingrays for £400 – £1000 instead of £3000 made em accessable to mortals ????
I have two of these in the American Deluxe model. One rosewood (Cayenne) and one maple fretboard (Black). IMHO, better than a Stingray. Terrific asymmetrical neck.
by chance, I bought a Squier dimension deluxe IV, and was thinking of selling it, but your video made me change my mind
So glad to see this video! I always wonder if I made a mistake buying my dimension iv a few years back. It was my first Fender bass purchase. Then shortly after buying it, seeing that they had discontinued it, I was definitely bummed! But I love it. Gets great tone, love the weight of the body and the feel of the fret board. So, it's great to see others feel the same and that I made a wise decision. Thanks and cheers!
No slap. Much sad ????. Cool bass tho
I have the exact same and love it! @Fender bring it back! #FenderDimensionBass
how to remove the battery
The one I demo'd long ago sounded nowhere nearly this good! Perhaps this bass got killed because people demo'd ones that were poorly setup, or maybe there were cheaper less good versions that ended up being players first experience with them. If I remembered them sounding this good I probably would have gotten one
I got the squier dimension bass IV for 3 years now and love it , I even used it for some recordings
Mr. chees. Can you also consider an more affordable electric bass guitar? Maybe SX brand or artist brand. Or middle level like Yamaha brand or Cortt brand? Thanks, viewer
Thanks for the close ups of the grain. I think Squier Fender should make this bass again. I can see why it is good for an experienced bass person like yourself. But, it might be too advanced for a regular cheers subscriber. Lost in knobs. Yes
