Fender is, needless to say, the number one brand of electric guitars and basses.
It's beloved by countless top artists, including Jaco Pastorious, Marcus Miller, and Geddy Lee. (Titles omitted)
The Jazz Bass was released as a premium model of the Precision Bass.
Its sharp, clear sound is beloved by many bassists, and it continues to enjoy overwhelming support and a shining presence to this day.
This is a Jazz Bass manufactured in 1973.
The neck and bridge pickup volume pots are "1377310."
The pickups are gray bobbins and are stamped "203173."
The neck date is 0201⚪︎⚪︎⚪︎3.
Based on the above, we have made a comprehensive judgment.
The body is made of alder and the fingerboard is made of rosewood, popular specifications.
The overall design shows feather checkering due to aging, giving it a dignified appearance.
The tone pot and capacitor have been replaced.
It appears to have also been refretted, revealing that this guitar has been played thoroughly.
Deep low end, earthy mid-range, and a surprisingly clear high end.
I feel like this balance was only possible at this time in the early 1970s.
Don't miss this opportunity!
Approximately 70% of the frets remain.
The truss rod is in good condition.
The neck is in good condition, with some high rise, but is still playable within GIB standards (2.0mm-2.5mm at the 12th fret).
The body and paint show feather checking, dents, paint peeling, and scratches due to aging.
The electrical system is in good condition.
The tone pot and capacitor have been replaced. The nut has been replaced along with the refret. The octave adjustment screw for the 1st string has been replaced with a longer one.
