USED Fender / 1968 Jazz Bass Sunburst [04]

Fender JAZZ BASS Sunburst made in 1968 is now in stock!

Jumpin' Jack Flash", "(Sittin' on) The Dock of the Bay" and "Everyday People" were released in 1968. The musical instrument industry was changing along with the change of music, and Fender changed its logo design under the umbrella of CBS.

Alder body, maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard.

The head has the "CBS logo" with a black gold-rimmed PAT. number, which was changed around 1968, and the entire head has been overcoated to prevent peeling. The tuners were changed from paddle pegs to Fender's original design of progressive clover tuners in mid-1968.

The round pasted bound neck, inherited from 1966 and later specifications, has pearloid block position marks, and the bump is still present on the body's first string cutaway.

Hardware is chrome, with Fender tuners as well as pickup fences, control panel, and jack plate with "F" engraving and serial number. The bridge is made of steel and uses a spiral bridge.
The pickguard is PVC 4-Ply tortoiseshell with an aluminum plate sandwiched between the entire surface and sealed.

The pickups are equipped with cotton coated gray bobbins, but the cushions are sticking and the pickup dates are unreadable.
The pot dates are "304-6631", "304-6631", and "304-6631". The condenser is 0.02 MFD ceramic and the solder is virgin, so the assembly is most likely original.

The fret nut is original, with about 60% of frets remaining, and the truss rod is confirmed to turn 60 degrees both tightened and loosened.
The sunburst color is still there, and there are some weather checks, scuffs, and dings, but there are no problems with the condition.
