WITHDRAWN - Fender Japan Jazz Bass JB62-58US in Candy Apple Red £700 Edinburgh

[NikNik]

Fender Japan Jazz Bass, non-export AFAIK, in Candy Apple Red with matching headstock. Year dates as 'I' plus six digits, so around '89/'90. Mint green 'guard and currently sporting a '60/'61 stackpot circuit, though the original VVT circuit and plate will be supplied at sale price, along with a Fender Tweed case.

Absolutely no issues and has a nice, tight Jazz Bass sound; even acoustically it has some bite! Listed as in very good condition. No trades or swaps, please.

Oh, why do you have such a gorgeous bass for sale, and why do you have to be in Edinburgh too? That's no fair, the temptation is overwhelming! 

Do you know if the pickup spacing is 60's or 70's?

Ah yes, of course it'll be 60's spacing if it's a JB62! Sorry, I must have missed that the first time around - too busy drooling over the pictures! 🤤

Am sure you won't have any trouble selling this, it's feckin gorgeous... in fact, I'm surprised it's still here! 

Incidentally, didn't these models come with the grounding strap between the bridge and the bridge pickup, or was that only the US 62RI basses? 

Thanks

Usually, the Jap JBs had the authentic-width strip but this one, being an odd-ball, doesn't have it.

Well, either way, I reeeeeally like this bass... If it's still here at the end of the month, I may PM you!
