Up for sale, a 2002 Fender Jazz Bass ‘62 vintage reissue model JB62-75US in exceptional, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This upper-tiered “Crafted in Japan” Jazz Bass was produced exclusively for the Japanese domestic market and is uncommon outside its country of origin, featuring factory-installed USA-made pickups and vintage-spec touches including full-size tuner baseplates and spiral bridge saddles.

Tonewoods include an alder body and a maple neck capped by a slab rosewood fretboard, and at 9lbs 10oz, this bass delivers plenty of natural sustain and sonic authority, faithfully captured by the USA-made single coil pickups. These pickups offer sweet midrange and articulate growl, with a clear treble response and plenty of broad thump. This JB62-75US has been professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-100 roundwound strings, easy-playing action, and accurate intonation.

The gloss Candy Apple Red finish is bright and vibrant, and cosmetic wear is limited to faint buckle rash central to the back, very light pick scuffing on top, and just a couple tiny marks on the body as a whole. The smooth ambered gloss on the neck profile is flawless.

A padded gigbag is included.
