USED Fender USA / Standard Jazz Bass Black/M [1983/4.30kg]

1983 Fender USA Standard Jazz Bass featuring a pickguard with integrated control panel.

It features modern specs such as deluxe "F" tuners, micro-tilt 4-point joint plate, bi-flex head side truss rod adjustment, and Schaller lock pin compatible strap pins. The pickups are gray bobbin (Neck) & red bobbin (Bridge) Jazz Bass pickups.

It is a standard spec model of the time with hardware such as truss rod and neck joint that were used on the Elite Series.

The nut jack has been replaced and the pots are believed to be original, although not made by CTS. It shows signs of use (color fading, minor scratches around the body, scuffs and marks from playing, picking marks, fogging and bits on metal parts and screws, and other exterior damage).

The fret board has been set up (cleaning, string replacement, rod adjustment, octave adjustment, string height adjustment, fret groove adjustment, nut groove correction, jack replacement) upon arrival. The truss rod can be adjusted to ±60°.

Item Rank: B+: Some scratches, but no problem in normal use.
