Hi Hutton, yes and no...... I think The bass is a Japanese JB66B but is part of a Fender Special Run where only a limited amount of 132 were released to the US. I can't find any info if any were released to any other terrortories. The one you have posted is just the one sold in Japan. Spec wise, they are exactly the same I think apart from pickups and colour. My one has Fender Vintage Jazz pickups where the one you have posted just has Fender Japan Jazz pickups. I know some Japanese Jazz basses came with vintage USA Jazz pickups and some have just the Fender Japan Jazz pickups. I have no idea what my ones are apart from they are vintage. My bass I believe is only available in white where as the one sold in Japan is available in white, black, blue and maybe a few other colours. To sum up, it is basically the same apart from mine is a Fender FSR model and I believe the pickups are different.
