bigjohn Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 (edited) That looks to me like a Jazz neck. Am I right? Is the normal E tuner included in the sale? Edited March 12, 2012 by bigjohn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rednose200 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Yep very nice. These were made in Japan and most I have seen have been a bit 'used'. This one looks sweet though although the photo is rather small. Good luck. I should think this will fly for this price. Pretty rare bass this is.
