Up for sale, a 1988 Fender Jazz Bass ‘75 vintage reissue model JB75-80 in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with a molded hardshell case. This “Made in Japan” Jazz Bass was crafted at the Fujigen factory during the golden era of Fender Japan production, featuring a white ash body, maple neck and bound rosewood fretboard with block inlay.

Weighing 11lbs 1oz, the bass offers a natural fundamental punch and sonic authority. The low end is thick and focused, with a present upper midrange burp and treble-centric grind. The bridge pickup has clarity and growl, balanced by the fuller thump of the neck position single coil. This Jazz Bass JB75-80 has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-100 roundwound strings, easy-playing action, and accurate intonation.
