Fender 70s jazz reissue (MiM)

[Quilly]

I've seen a sweet looking 70s fender jazz reissue on Thomann. Anyone have any experience of this model. Price point is good.

Hi I’ve got a similar one it’s got the bullet truss rod the bound fingerboard     vintage pickups , bridge, and tuners    The only difference between this and my other jazz basses is the neck profile it’s very slightly deeper but feels great    and sounds really good with flatwound strings

Cheers, I've had 2 MIM jazz basses in the past and I wasn't blown away by them but these 'look' decent enough in the photos .

I had one of the same ones as @Reggaebass, pretty decent, played good and sounded it. As said, a deeper neck profile than many Jazzes, especially MIM Standards.

I played one the other day in PMT along with the P Bass version. 

Fabulous basses, excellent build quality, lightweight, well set up and great sounding.

The P Bass left with me but it was a close call

Does the p bass have a big fat neck...I love those

It’s not too bad and doesn’t feel too thick to me. Mind you, I play P Basses so I don’t think I’d be the best to comment.  

I’d liken it to the standard B width neck on 70’s P Basses.
