1971 Fender Jazz Bass Sunburst

Some one really loved this bass! For your consideration a 1971 Fender Jazz bass in sunburst. Seems like some one just couldn’t put this bass down! We don’t blame them. Super comfortable neck that has only gotten better with age. It has that wonderful broken in feeling that you look for in vintage guitars. The weight is perfect for a bass, comfortably play a set with out aggravation. Great vintage tone. Full round bass notes but retains the articulation attack of a good Jazz bass. Absolutely love a Jazz bass with black block inlays!

Frets are original but very low; plays great but will need a re-fret if you prefer them to be taller. Original Fender tuners. New Corian nut measuring 1.5″. Alder body finish in a 3-tone sunburst.
