Fender is, of course, the number one brand of electric guitars and basses.
It's loved by countless top artists, including Jaco Pastorious, Marcus Miller, and Geddy Lee. (Titles omitted)
The Jazz Bass was released as a higher-end model than the Precision Bass.
Its sharp, clear sound is loved by many bassists, and it continues to receive overwhelming support and shines brightly even today.
This is a Jazz Bass manufactured in 1979.
Due to soldering, only the tone pot's date could be confirmed.
The number 1377931 indicates it was manufactured in 1979.
The age was determined by considering the serial number and other specifications.
The body is ash, and the neck and fretboard are maple.
This is a popular combination representative of the 1970s.
