1998 Fender Roscoe Beck Artist Series Jazz Bass Teal Green Metallic
No sales tax for customers outside California.
This 1998 Fender Roscoe Beck Artist Series Jazz Bass is in excellent condition with just a few small dings here and there. The frets show little wear, so I'm thinking that the wear might just be from way back when it was hanging in the store. It came in as part of a collection of instruments that were rarely played, if ever.
The bass has been fully vetted during our check in process. The strings were not changed as they were deemed useable, but the truss rod was checked and is functional for future neck relief adjustment. All parts are original - there are no changes or issues.
A unique design featuring a traditional Jazz Bass feel, combined with a graphite reinforced neck, pao ferro fretboard, special dual Jazz V pickups, and custom switching for a wide variety of dynamic tones. Made in the USA & finished in classic Candy Apple Red with Roscoe Beck's signature on the headstock.
Included is the original Fender case and paperwork.
