Up for sale, a 1994 Fender Jazz Bass ‘62 vintage reissue fretless model JB62-77FL in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. A “Made in Japan” model designed for sale in the Japanese domestic market and uncommon outside its country of origin, this Jazz Bass captures the feel and look of Jaco Pastorious' famed instrument, with factory-installed USA-made pickups and vintage-spec hardware includes long stem clover button tuners and spiral bridge saddles.

Tonewoods comprise an alder body and a maple neck capped with a lined slab rosewood fretboard. This bass can deliver plenty of growl, burp, and treble presence via the single coil pair. Things are throaty and punchy with the Tone knob rolled off and the neck pickup favored, or dial up the bridge pickup for a more midrange forward tone. Weighing 8lbs 9oz, this JB62-77FL has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-105 roundwound strings, easy-playing action, and accurate intonation.

The three-tone Sunburst finish is accurate to vintage-spec with a burst that is only two-tone beneath the area where a pickguard would typically be mounted. There is a bit of pick wear on top, light buckle rash on the back central to the upper bout, a couple finish chips along the lower bout perimeter, and some minor dings on the body. The neck profile retains its smooth ambered gloss.

A faux leather gigbag is included.
