Up for sale, a 2011 Fender Jazz Bass PJ model JB62PJ/BD/MH in near-mint, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This rare, upper-tiered “Made in Japan” model has long since been discontinued, sporting a bevy of premium features including a PJ pickup configuration, factory-installed Leo Quan Badass II bridge, and Transparent Blue gloss finish with matching headstock, accented by a white pearloid pickguard.
While many Fender basses that have the PJ pickup configuration use a Precision-style body, this JB62-PJ/BD/MH has the sleek looks and comfortable 1 1/2" nut width of the Jazz Bass. The pickups offer both the ample thump and heft of a split coil Precision neck pickup and the midrange cut and articulation of a Jazz pickup at the bridge, and the tonewood complement comprises an alder body, maple neck, and slab rosewood fretboard. This JB62PJ/BD/MH weighs 9lbs 14oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-100 roundwound strings, easy-playing action, and spot-on intonation.
Neck Specs:
-Wood: Maple
-Shape: Slender U at nut, more heft in upper registers, measuring .805” 1st fret, .999” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Rosewood slab, 7 1/4” vintage-spec radius
-Frets: Slender, light wear on frets 1-8
-Scale Length: 34”
-Nut: 1 1/2”, bone
-Tuners: Clover buttons, full-size baseplates
-Serialization: “Made in Japan,” U-prefix
Body Specs:
-Wood: Alder
-Pickups: JB-Single x1, PB-Single x1
-Controls: Volume x2, Tone x1
-Hardware: Leo Quan Badass II bridge, dome-top knurled knobs
-Plastics: Four-ply white pearloid pickguard
The gloss Transparent Blue highlights the grain in the alder body, and cosmetic wear is limited to light buckle worming central to the back, scuffing along the pick path on top, and some minor dings on the body as a whole, largely relegated to the back and lower bout perimeter. The neck profile retains its smooth ambered gloss, with a couple shallow marks along the profile length.
A modern Fender padded gigbag is included.
