Fender American ELITE JAZZ V BLACK/MAPLE Stunner £1595 with OHSCase ( £1515 without case) Inc UK mainland delivery - *SOLD* £1625 Suffolk

[Quent]

Hi everybody.

This Fender American Elite Jazz V ( made 2016 ) is in

excellent / V Good condition overall for an 8+ year old bass.

The original owner gigged it occasionally before I bought it in 

July 2019. Since then it has only had limited Home use only 

as it competes to get played with my other basses.

 

There’s some very slight fret wear under the D string from

frets 2 to 7 , hardly visible, which I noticed when polishing 

the frets this week.

The black gloss body gleams. One small dink near 

the chrome control plate , top side, and one on the back

face close to the jack. Some other mini pits but please see

the photos to see how minor they are. The finish is not broken.

 

Still no sun here so took the photos today in the conservatory.

Hence reflections of roof panel parallel lines, moss lumps

and palm leaves.

 

I’ve also had a 4 string Elite Jazz since 2016 and will keep

that, so now it’s time to let someone else have the pleasure of 

this superb Fiver. Fender’s top of the range, with it’s Noiseless

pickups, powerful pre amp and excellent build quality.

Many consider the Elite series Fenders ( 2016-2020) their best.

Played it this morning. No issues whatsoever. 

It’s so impressive in Passive mode and truly exciting in Active mode.

 

The bass really does look stunning and is in perfect working order.

All original apart from an identical WD Music pickguard I bought.

Truss rod lever, saddle key and Schaller strap Locks are 

included and the original Fender Tag. Both batteries read

9.36v today,  so it’s ready to leap out of your cabs!

 

Well balanced whether standing or sitting at 4.56kg 10lbs 1oz.

Alder body, maple neck with gloss finish , pearloid black blocks 

and black binding. Delicious!

 

34 inch scale. 46.7mm nut. 17.5mm string spacing at saddles

currently - adjustable , via the grooved saddles.

 

Price for this much sort after and currently very rare Black/Maple

stunner  includes insured UK mainland delivery in the original 

Fender Elite Moulded hardshell case, then a large outer box.

I’ve searched and can’t find another Black/ Maple Elite Jazz V 

so you might have to act quickly to secure this.

 

Thank you for looking.
