Now I am confused. My 66 dot/bound/lollipop Jazz is (from my reading of the numbers) Jan 5 1966. So "5=Precision" is now confusing me. I am open to the concept that I have misremembered this number, but I do not think I have. I guess I will have to pop the neck off.

This is definitely a bit odd that your 66 Jazz stamp has a 5 at the start though, I also have a 66 dot bound lollipop jazz and this is mine.

 

Does it still have an A at the end for an A neck? Regardless, possibly a factory error?

I am now doubting myself. However, my wife would not be impressed if I went back downstairs to take a bass to pieces. Tomorrow.

I’m not too bad on a C neck, my AV62 P has one but I definitely find the B width more comfortable, which always gives me a dilemma when a nice 60s one comes up for sale, I think it’s because I’ve played jazzes for years 

Eh up Reggebass. How's the Stow? Yeah shame as it appears to be right up my street aside from the neck profile.

William Hill are giving 10-1 on it’s a 7, like everyone else’s, including mine.

Yep. That shows you how much I know.
