************ SOLD Pending the usual ****************

Time for a clearout and it's a buyer's market, so priced to sell.

Fender Japan (CIJ) 1999-2002 '62 Re-issue Jazz Bass

3TS, white pickguard (more on that later), spiral saddles, copper earthing strip, strap button on back of headstock.

Just a perfect example of what Fender Japan do so well. I have gigged this a few times over the last 2 years, and although well used has also been well looked after. No need to worry about getting that first ding in her, she's already got one or two (but hard to show up in the pics).

Main downsides: slight rash on back of body (can't see it in the pictures), a few slight indentations on the edge of the headstock where the odd cymbal has brushed against her (might just be able to make them out in the pictures) but finish dings only - no wood.

All original apart from Schaller strap-lock buttons on the body, and replacement white pickguard (used to be tort). The pickguard is 99% a perfect fit apart from one screwhole which almost lined up but not quite, so rather than force it (and possibly mess up the hole) I have not put a screw in there. Makes no difference.

As a bonus, but also to assist during shipping, I am including a perfectly shaped Jazz Bazz case (tolex covered) which is completely intact and structurally sound. Check the pics, but this case was made for a Jazz (not one of these one-size-fits-all-Fenders jobbies) and the body slips into the soft yellow interior like, ehm, something really slippy in a fits-absolutely-perfectly kind of way. The exterior of the case is stained and has many years of dust ingrained in there, but mojo-wise is the bee's bollox (or dog's knees if you prefer).

£380 for the bass in the case. Shipping extra (but should be in the region of £15-20 insured for mainland UK - or feel free to arrange your own courier).

Located just north of Aberdeen if pickup preferred.
