Hiperi0n Posted February 4, 2011 Author Posted February 4, 2011 (edited) i'm told it exist in stack knobs version and in 3 knobs version.....so you can find both versions infact in 1962 was available in both version. The source is Brian Barrett of Low End Basses in Usa from wich i bought the bass from some time ago. Edited February 4, 2011 by Hiperi0n
artisan Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 i have never seen a U.S. reissue '62 Jazz with anything other than stacked knobs,mine was a mid to late 1990's one in L.P.B. but it had an off white scratch plate (parchment i think they call it).
Hiperi0n Posted February 4, 2011 Author Posted February 4, 2011 that's what was told me when i bought it, i bought it from lowend, wich is a famous delear worldwide. i wrote Brian (the owner) today to be sure of it and he confirmed me that....i dont know if those are rarer than the usual stack knobs but he confirmed that they are/were available in both versions. Whoever is interested in the bass i have no problem to unmount the bass and make pictures to testimony the originality of parts.

Kubs Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 [url="http://support.fender.com/service_diagrams/bass_guitars/019-0209C_SISD.pdf"]http://support.fender.com/service_diagrams...-0209C_SISD.pdf[/url] definitely must have stacked knobs if its claimed as US RI or AV Iam sorry for arguing here, but even if by some kind of randomness ever has been made 3knobs US 62 RI (now known as American Vintage, before as 62 RI) I dont believe they would originally have chrome knobs. Fender does not care much about period correct things on RI or AV series(mostly in details), but I doubt they would make such fault and put chrome knobs on JB(they spare chromes for Squiers). Sorry man but Low end basses should put out explanation if they sold you bass in such shape. I dont mean to doubt origin of your bass, I just justifying questions on control plate arrangment. Get stacked knobs worth about 100 USD and I must say that its wery good investmnet!!
Hiperi0n Posted February 5, 2011 Author Posted February 5, 2011 Brian told me those can be early knobs used....now im not sure of this...so i have no problem to remove from the final price the 100$ needed to get stack knobs.....for the other parts im 100% sure it's all original cause i checked the neck..neck pocket and everything..... so if someone interested can get a nice reissue in a rare finish at a good price
EssentialTension Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Doesn't the Japanese 62 have the V/V/T and the US 62 have the two stacks?
Hiperi0n Posted February 5, 2011 Author Posted February 5, 2011 read above we have discussed it before, the "lowend" thesis is that there were available also a USA 3 knobs versions.....that it's unsure for me but it can be..so the second option is the previous owner wanted the 3 knobs and replaced the stacked knobs with a 3 knobs plate....or it was a 3 knobs version and he just replaced the black knobs with chrome ones. for all the rest the bass is 100% sure USA Reissue...... the japanese one has the neck marked as crafted or made in japan...they dont have the VRI serial.....etc....and i have checked all the neck pocket and neck stamps and pups and etc and those are all original USA stock reissue
EssentialTension Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 [quote name='Hiperi0n' post='1116693' date='Feb 5 2011, 04:45 PM']read above we have discussed it before[/quote] I had read the whole thread, I realise what was discussed. Maybe I missed it but I thought the Japan connection had not been mentioned. Good luck with the sale, nice looking bass.
Hiperi0n Posted February 5, 2011 Author Posted February 5, 2011 Yeah you are right we didnt mention the japanese connection....sorry but english is not my first language so i didnt mean to be rude everyy contribute is well appreciated....also if it is a sale thread it's interesting the discussion to have more knowledge. But what i can garantee it is all 100% stock USA reissue, than for this knobs' "dilemma" , there are several hypotesis....but i told im ready to lower the price eventually for who is interested to put a stack knobs plate...so no problem i guess
