I'm going to also put this in the "Porn" Thread but I thought I'd put this in a wider thread and ask for any info that other Fender owners may have, first.

My complaint with Fender always was that they didn't make active models and that they didn't use exotic woods. I'm always happy to be proved wrong (see my signature below) as long as I learn something along the way. Well, I took possesion of this item this morning and after a quick visit to one of my mates (a long term Fender owner who incidently took the photos) - (nice one Wilf) - and gave it a test drive I've decided to put the photos/details up for discussion. Anybody know any more??

Item is a Fender deluxe Jazz (circa 2002) - here's the details from the sale:

Body Construction - Solid
Top Wood - Cocobolo (Nicaraguan Rosewood)
Neck Wood - Maple
Fingerboard - Rosewood
Frets - 22
Inlay - White Dot
# of Strings - 4
Scale Length - 34" (86cm)
Headstock - 4 In-Line
Bridge Construction - Carbon Fiber (Graphite)
Cutaway Double
Finish - Amber, Walnut
Guitar Hardware - 1x Volume Control, Gold
Pickups - Noiseless

I'm not sure of the weight but it's certainly lighter than most Fenders I've tried - my mate says it's one of the lightest he's ever played.

As I said photos will be going into the "Porn" thread so please don't drool TOOO much here.. :) :)



Did I mention that I was pleased as punch??

I think its just a Limited run they brought out... Not really a jazz, but not really a P bass...got a pbass body... They brought out lesser models... yours is the top of the line..They also did one with a flame maple top... always wanted one when they had one in Aroundabout sound.... oh did i mention im very jealous!!

To be honest it hasn't really sunk in that I've got it - not normally a fan of Fenders - but when I saw this I just knew I had to have it (damn GAS) - when I turn round and look at it, I'm blown away... I had it with me when I went out for lunch earlier and couldn't stop showing it to people...
