(Titles omitted)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Jazz Bass was released as a higher-end model than the Precision Bass.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts sharp, clear sound is loved by many bassists, and it continues to enjoy overwhelming support and a shining presence even today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a Jazz Bass produced between 1969 and 1971.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt has rare transitional specifications.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe serial number is \"323616,\" and the neck date is \"02032494-1.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBased on other specifications, we believe it's a 1970-71 model using a 1969 neck.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe body is alder, and the neck and fretboard are maple.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile the 60s might bring to mind alder and rosewood combinations, and the 70s ash and maple combinations, the alder and maple combination, with its light midrange, is also highly recommended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a 1969 model, making it one of the earliest with a maple fretboard.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe frets are believed to be original.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey have undergone considerable leveling, and while the remaining fret life is low, the playability is still relatively good.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe pickups are original gray bobbins.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA unique feature of this model is the 60s-style pickup spacing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn other words, it's a rare example of a maple fretboard with 60s-style pickup spacing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe considered the possibility that the body and neck were from different instruments (a so-called \"two-in-one\" combination), but since this specification does exist occasionally, we believe it is original.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe fast, tight attack characteristic of the 70s is distinctive, yet the open midrange nuance is a unique charm of this instrument, combining alder and maple.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCompared to typical early 1970s models, it exhibits a stronger midrange.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHighly recommended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFret life is approximately 50%.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe truss rod is in good condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe neck shows some high-frequency bowing and a slight back-bow twist on the bass string side. Currently, it is playable without issues according to GIB standards.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe body and paintwork have dents and scratches. Part of the binding on the neck heel is missing. Position markers from the 3rd to 9th frets are missing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe electronics are in good condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe pickup lead wires have been replaced.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe electronics have had their potentiometers replaced with 1980 Centralab potentiometers.
