Made exclusively for the Japanese domestic market and not intended for export, this Jazz Bass (model JBV) combines the vintage-tinged aesthetics of Fender Japan's '62 reissue models with the modern performance of a 5 string instrument.\n\nStrung with 45-130 roundwound strings, this Fender pairs a solid alder body with a maple neck and thick slab rosewood fretboard, a tonal platform that yields an even, warm sound across all strings. The low B is fat and rumbling, and the instrument retains the midrange forward sound and present top end intrinsically linked to the Jazz Bass design. Professionally setup here at Mike \u0026amp; Mike's Guitar Bar and weighing 10lbs 3oz, this bass plays well with low action and spot-on intonation.\n\nThe maple neck has a medium C-shaped profile carve, measuring .835\" deep at the 1st fret and .975\" at the 12th. On the thick slab rosewood fretboard, the slender frets have their full factory height and well-rounded crowns, showing just the faintest hint of wear on frets 1-2. The bass plays cleanly up the 34\" scale with a straight neck and responsive, optimally adjusted truss rod. The nut measures 1 11\/16\" in width. The peghead sports a round string tree and original chrome tuning machines with clover buttons that turn smoothly and hold pitch well. The \"Crafted in Japan\" text and Q-prefix serial number are present above the four-bolt neck plate.\n\nAll of the electronics function as intended, with the traditional Volume\/Volume\/Tone control array governing the pair of single coils. Hardware includes the toploader bridge and control plate, both with positively gleaming chrome plating. Plastics comprises the three-ply pale mint pickguard and original trio of knobs. Cosmetic wear on the rich three tone Sunburst gloss finish is practically nonexistent beyond a few faint scratches in the clear coat. The gloss finish on the neck profile is immaculate.\n\nA Fender-branded padded gigbag is included.","brand":"Fender","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43242864214272,"sku":"Q069955","price":1099.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/4437\/4714\/products\/medium_a5321d38-7306-413c-886f-5ddc147942d9.jpg?v=1751497472","url":"https:\/\/mmguitarbar.com\/products\/2004-fender-jazz-bass-v-5-string-electric-bass-guitar-jbv-sunburst-japan-cij","provider":"Mike \u0026 Mike's Guitar Bar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
