Dee-bass Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 (edited) Here we have an incredible Made in Japan Fender jazz 1975 reissue non export model, weight is a lovely 4.1kg, I bought this in Tokyo back in the 90's & had a full set up by leading UK Luthier Andy Warnock, he also fitted a set of Lollar pickups, Kts pots with a switchcraft Jack & re wired it in vintage wiring, the bass is killer & in superb unused condition, it dates from 1995-96. Lovely low action that plays & sounds incredible. Comes with the original pickups & a hiscox hard case.

Don’t think it’s one piece, but is very well book-matched compared to others I’ve seen. The join looks to be to the right of the neck plate on the rear shot, tracing it down you can see two grain lines merge into one. Looks lovely. Guessing this might be a heavy beast.

Dee-bass Posted August 27 Author Share Posted August 27 It's a very comfortable weight & not heavy at all like some of the originals 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeEvans Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 I think that's my idea of a perfect jazz bass. Gorgeous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
