1965 L series Fender Jazz bass in very good overall condition. It has a nitro Sunburst refinish with a Tortoiseshell guard and rosewood fingerboard. Refretted with period correct size frets. The metal bridge cover is certainly period correct, I'm not so sure about the metal pickup cover. Otherwise original including the case.
The finish is fairly new so displays only a little play-wear. The neck has plenty of play-wear through the finish leaving it smooth in the hand. The original frets are in excellent condition having been cleaned and dressed in our workshop. The headstock has some small scuffs and dings around the edges but nothing major and everything remains structurally sound with no breaks or repairs. There was a small split in the pickguard which we have repaired.
This bass is a joy to play with a superb even sound right across the fretboard. It's been fully set up in our workshop with a great medium/low action. All hardware is in great condition including the truss rod which operates correctly.
It weighs 8 lbs 12.5 oz / 3.98 kg. Serial: L75680. The neck date is May 65A. All 3 pots date to the 34th week of 65. The pickups have original windings and untouched solder and they both date to mid-65. Nut Width: 37.9mm. Depth at 1st fret: 19.6 mm. Supplied with 3-months warranty and a 14-day returns policy.
