Fender Jazz Power Bass: active! £550 DERBY

[revaj]

 

Sunburst Fender Power Jazz Bass with in beautiful condition. The Power series is quite rare and is active with piezo pickups under the bridge!   See the picture of the wiring under the scratch plate! This series is a massive step up from the ordinary! It sounds huge!

Serial number MZ7083536 so it’s 07/2007

 

The Power Jazz Bass® features two standard Jazz Bass® single-coil pickups coupled with a four-saddle piezo Fishman® Power Bridge (for acoustic/electric tones) with two volume controls as normal, then an ordinary tone control for the standard pickups then a stacked tone control for the active piezo pickups!

 

It’s been well set up. The truss rod has been adjusted to give a nice low action and is very comfortable to play and has a great tone with a warm punch.

The electrics have been sprayed with Contact Spray, so they work as they should with no nasty scratchy sounds from the pots.

Reverse tuners!

 

The frets have been levelled and polished and the intonation is spot on.

The neck has been treated with lemon oil so it’s clean and ‘fed’.

 

Happy to post at buyer’s expense.

No case
