Fender MIM Jazz Bass w/ Hardshell Case, Black (USED)


Our Notes: This bass comes to us from a customer who used to play in bands for fun but has had to put music on the back burner to focus on his family. When he brought it in there were a few issues that we fixed. The tone pot was busted - we installed a new tone pot. It was missing two knobs - we replaced all three knobs with genuine fender knobs. The nut was broken - we replaced it with a new nut. There are a couple of scratches in the finish on the back but overall the bass is in VERY GOOD condition. We performed a complete Set-Up and the thing plays GREAT. All around solid bass. Comes with a nice hardshell case. 


The Jazz Bass was Leo Fender's follow up act to his original Precision Bass. The Precision Bass gave upright bass players a fighting chance with the increasing volume of western swing and emerging rock acts. The Jazz bass addressed a couple of issues: The first being tone, and an emphasis on a brighter and more focused treble response. The second idea was to make the neck more narrow and rounded in order to woo traditional jazz bass players away from their acoustic uprights. The end result is one of the most famous basses in the music world, played by artists in virtually every genre.
