1983 Squier JV series, 62 reissue Precision bass. (Export model) The neck is dated 29th January 1983, making this only a year into the production of these Japanese Squiers. 3 tone Sunburst over an alder body, Maple neck and Rosewood fingerboard. All original. Hiscox hard case included. These export series JV basses had more in keeping with the original vintage basses than the Japanese domestic series - USA made pickups with cloth wires and vintage style reverse tuners.
This bass is generally very clean but does have a few bumps and scrapes. Most notably a big bump at the butt end of the bass ( lower bout) where the lacquer has chipped away. ( see pics) The neck is straight and clean as is the headstock. The frets are in great shape. All electronics and hardware are in good working order. This bass has a big round and warm sound in keeping with the vintage vibe. If your budget doesn't stretch to a pre CBS Fender, then these Japanese made reissues are an excellent alternative. This bass has been fully set up with a smooth action by my technician. Weight:9 lbs. Serial: JV33168
Condition | Very Good 8.25/10 |
Case | Hiscox Flight Case |
Weight | 9 lbs |
Serial Number | JV33168 |
