Yours looks like a beaut - any idea what the string-spacing is on it?[/quote] I now its been a while since you asked about string spacing and never having the need to bother with this I simply measured the space with a ruler. However, I have just discovered something new regarding the bridge. You do infact have more than one option for string spacing. Each saddle has 3 or 4 grooves which the string can sit inside allowing for different spacing options. As I say I was totally unaware of this fact. If you need a better or detailed explanation let me know. The widest can be 21 mm I believe. Edited July 31, 2011 by wal4string Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wal4string Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 (edited) Had name of bass posted incorrectly. I called it a USA Fender Deluxe Jazz. Who knew? Also found out by chance about the adjustable string spacing. Have now included a close up image of a 4 string Jazz to show how this can work. Spacing can be even or uneven. Raking on the G string now really possible by moving string over one notch towards the D string. In the past this was limited as string was easilly pulled off the fretboard.

Thanks for the update on the spacing, as I said I knew nothing about this, but as far as the correct name goes, I think you may well be wrong. I Googled both names and I found the identical bass to mine. I know I could be wrong but everything points to it being a Fender American Deluxe and not as you say. I searched out the 2009 broshure and have included a snapshot of the page with my images. In the meantime to be 100% have also sent Fender the Serial# so they can confirm.

[/quote] This is exactly what I thought until I tried to find out more about the string spacing, it was then I discovered that unless I typed in the correct name then I could not find any trace of my bass. Waiting to hear from Fender(could take forever) to see what they say. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
