NBD - Fender Jazz American Deluxe QMT

[basshead56]

I really need help!

 

An opportunity to get my greasy mits on something I've wanted for 20+ yrs came up and I couldn't say no.

Especially considering there aren't many of them around these days and certainly not in New Zealand.

 

 

It cost me my beloved first run CIJ Jaguar and a bit of cash but once I saw that beautiful quilted amber maple top, honestly, it was worth it!!!

 

It is an absolute SUPER Jazz, in every sense.

it is pretty tidy all over, save for a couple of tiny nicks and the tones are simply astounding. It can pretty much do it all, with ease.

Only issue is the pickup pan knob is a little scratchy so will give it all a once over later.

 

But yeah, pretty darn happy!!!

2024 ain't bad so far

How is the neck dive if it has any at all? 
 

about to buy one of these, but concerned about ergonomics and neck dive especially….

 

Thanks!

None at all that I noticed.

Just tried it on a strap again about 5 minutes ago and neither it, nor my Victor Bailey have a hint of neck dive. tried 3 different straps too.

 

Hope that helps. They are beautiful instruments.
