【used】Fender / 1964 Jazz Bass 4.260kg #L54868【consignment】【GIB Yokohama】

Fender is the undisputed number one brand of electric guitars and basses.
Fender is loved by countless top artists such as Jaco Pastorious, Marcus Miller, and Geddy Lee.

The Jazz Bass was released as a higher-end model of the 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 Jazz Bass made in 1964.

Alder body, rose fingerboard, and popular specs.
The fingerboard is round paste.

All three pot dates are 304-6440, which means STACK POLE 1964 40th anniversary production.
Condenser is Red Dime.

Neck end stamp is 7 DEC 64 A, which means A neck manufactured in December 1964.

The pickups are gray bobbins, which may be original.
The year 1964 to 1965 was a transitional period, and it seems that black bobbins and gray bobbins were mixed together.

The position mark looks like pearloid.
The switch from clay dots is late 1964, so it also matches.

If you look up the serial number on the official site, it shows it was manufactured in 1965.
Overall, I would say 1964, but there is a difference in judgment, and if he says 1965, it may be 1965.

The nut has been replaced and the neck is in extremely good condition.
From this point, one would think that the frets have been replaced and the fretboard modified, but I could not be sure.
If this is the case with the original, it is quite miraculous.

The frets are roughly 70% remaining.

The condition of the body and paint surface has weather checks throughout.
There are numerous dents, paint age spots, and areas where the wood is showing due to being played.
There are holes for strap pins near the neck set plate and at the tip of the horn on the first string side.

The electrical system is in good condition.

The peg bushings and peg mounting screws are original, but all four pegs have been replaced.
The manufacturer is unknown. The original pegs are included, but it is unknown if they can be used normally.

The jack has been replaced with one made in China.

Postscript.
According to the consignor, there is nothing wrong with the original pegs, which were only replaced to prevent damage in advance.
