Fernandes The Revival Jazz Bass RJB-75 '60 original Fretless 1981 with Stone Logo on the neck plate and original Seymour Duncan Hot Jazz Bass (SJB-2) single coil pickups. It will be delivered with the original Fernandes pickups (the neck one is cut), a spare new old stock SLB8 (0.065") Rotosound string and an original BadAss II bridge. This bass is the successor of the Jaco model (FJB-65J) of the previous series. The bass has been used a lot and is showing signs of use, wear and dings: it's a player and a fantastic one! This is a really rare version of the RJB-75 '60 with a factory lined fretless fingerboard, which is impregnated (not epoxied) rosewood as the wood doesn't mark even with the long standing round wound strings, and these are the Rotosound RS66, so the ones which would mark the most. I've owned several Fender Jaco Pastorius models including the Custom Shop ones, and this bass is totally equivalent to them, no worries. OPENED TO TRADES! NON NEGOTIABLE PRICE!

Non-smoking environment as usual. The bass has been fully set up. It has received a new old stock set of stainless steel Rotosound RS66LD strings (45-65-80-105), which really serve this bass, think Jaco. What you see is what you get! Look carefully at the photos taken from different angles and lights to see the real condition, which is used with wear and dings, with some light ones at the back of the neck.

I've also considerably lowered the price for a quick sale. Don't hesitate to ask for more, but, please, before asking read my ad first as the answer is certainly already in it!
