Fender is the undisputed number one brand of electric guitars and basses.
It is loved by countless top artists such as Jaco Pastorius, Marcus Miller, and Geddy Lee.
The Jazz Bass was released with the positioning of a higher-end model of Precision Bass.
Its sharp and clear sound has been loved by many bassists, and even today it enjoys overwhelming support and a shining presence.
This model is a new Fender that has been reconfigured after the discontinuation of Fender Japan.
Although manufactured in Japan, the new model incorporates more American specifications and opinions than before.
This series is called Made in Japan Heritage 60s Jazz Bass, which means it is a legitimate replica model of the JB from the 60s.
It features vintage specs supervised by Mark Kendrick.
The body shape and neck shape are based on the profiling data used in the USA.
This is the real thing, exactly as vintage as it was.
Every detail, including the coloring, is filled with the soul of vintage.
The paint is done with lacquer, and after 50 years, we think it will have the same texture as what we call vintage Fender today.
The sound is truly royal, with plenty of massive bass and sharp, beautiful highs coexisting.
If you are a bassist, you must want to know this sound and playing comfort, don't you?
After 50 years, I think this bass will be well-received as a vintage bass.
The remaining frets are approximately 90%.
The truss rod is in good working order.
The neck is in good condition, and the 4th string side is more twisted than the 1st string side.
Currently, the string height on the 12th fret is adjusted at 2.5mm on the 1st string side and 3.0mm on the 4th string side.
From the 12th fret of the 4th string to the last fret, the twisting combined with the high rise causes chattering depending on the strength of the picking.
In other positions, it is playable without clogging or chattering.
It feels like a Fender.
If you like Fenders, this is a Sawtooth, but if you like to play with a straight neck and a little lower string height, this may not be a good fit for you.
The condition of the body and paint surface has a few paint cracks extending from near the neck set plate. Otherwise, it is relatively clean with some scratches.
The electrical system is in good condition.
No obvious modifications were found.

As you move from around the 12th fret of the 4th string to the final fret, the combination of twisting and high-pitched strings can cause rattling depending on the strength of your picking.
