Fender jazz 5 string made in USA valuation

[tonyclaret]

I've been offered one of these recently, last years model in good nick. Whilst doing my research I found there was quite a difference in prices, some were 6-700 others 900, there was one even at 400, although it was a bit battered.

What's the going rate?

Is it an American Standard or American Deluxe?

In my opinion:
400 for either is a steal (assuming it's not actually damaged/broken, etc.)
600-900 for an American Standard is a fair scale and very competitive price for an American Deluxe.

Depends on a few variables of course - and colour too - sunburst tends to be a little more expensive from what I've seen myself.

Just a standard pal. Could be worth the punt then. Thanks

Please post photos if you do get it. I'm thinking about maybe getting an olympic white American Standard 5 with rosewood fingerboard.

I'd say £600
