USED Fender Japan / JB62-75US Fretless Mod 3-Tone Sunburst [11]

A high-end model that follows the classic '62 style and is equipped with vintage pickups made in the USA.
Based on the “JB62-75US,” this guitar has been modified to feature a fretless design with line markings.

Manufactured during the “Crafted in Japan” era, circa 1997–2000, it features an alder body, a maple neck, and a rosewood fingerboard.In addition to its classic three-tone sunburst finish, it is equipped with vintage U.S.-made single-coil pickups—with “048612” and “048613” engraved on the bobbins—delivering a natural, jazz-bass-like sound with rich lows and well-defined mid-to-high frequencies.

This instrument has been modified to a fretless configuration with line markings, making it easier to locate your position while playing and making it an easy-to-handle choice for those looking to try their hand at the fretless bass. It’s finished to let you fully savor its smooth, singing tone and woody nuances.
Due to a tuning peg failure, Gotoh tuning pegs have been installed.
The saddle or bridge has been replaced, and a part different from the standard spiral saddle has been installed.
Additionally, while we have performed fingerboard corrections to restore it to the best possible condition, there is a difference in thickness between the 1st and 12th frets. Due to the fingerboard’s thickness, we were unable to fully correct areas where the edges are significantly rounded or where the fingerboard radius has significantly deteriorated.

There is a crack at the neck joint.
There is paint peeling in various places on the body.
In addition, there are scratches, dents, and rust on the metal throughout the instrument, and it shows significant signs of wear.
The neck is bowing forward on the 4th string side and backward on the 1st string side, showing signs of twisting. There are currently no issues with playability.
