1978 Fender Jazz Bass with a natural finish in near mint condition. Maple neck and fingerboard with white binding. This bass is all original and complete including the case. Weighing in at 9lbs 3oz, this bass is light for a late '70s Fender and is an excellent bass with a superb even sound right across the fretboard.
The body finish has a couple of lacquer crack lines in the face and some very faint scuffs along the bottom edge. Otherwise immaculate. The neck finish has no signs of wear at all. The headstock is equally clean with just a couple of tiny dings along the back edge. The frets are free from wear and have lots of life left in them. The truss rod works as it should and the neck is straight.
Fully set up in our workshop with a fresh set of Rotosound Nickel 45-105 and a low action giving great playability. Serial S8430312. Weight 9 lbs 3 oz. Nut Width 38.5 mm. Depth at 1st fret 22 mm. The pickups have untouched solder, original winds and both are dated to 1978. The original pots also have untouched solder and are dated to the 12th week of 78.
