86 Japanese Fender JBS w/ HSC. Priced to move

Sign in to disble this ad
1986 Japanese Fender E-Series Jazz Bass Special, and this one really has been made special -

P bass body with Jazz style neck
Gotoh style high mass bridge
Lindy Fralin P pup
Seymour Duncan Basslines Vintage J pup
Hipshot D tuner - I will include the original tuner as well
Strap locks
Metallic Pewter
Hard Shell Case

Neck is exceptional, finish is as well. Great player with a super warm P bass sound and a ripping burpy jazz tone. 450.00 shipped in CONUS in HSC. Money Order or Cashier's Check No trades please

It's wearing a BAII in these first few pics. This bridge was replaced with a Gotoh Style bridge which really straightened up the string to pickup alignment and took a lot of the mids (honk) out of the bass. The new bridge is seen in the pics of the bass taken while in the case



Badass String alignment

New bridge string alignment

I am in west-central Indiana, but UPS goes everywhere

And I gotta admit - I'm a little surprised at the lack of interest on this one. Everybody seems to love 80's Japanese Fenders, this one has outstanding upgrades, and the price is well below market for E-series Japanese basses. what's up people, Obama got your tongue?

I really like these too, but I can only play so many at a time, and right now I have more than "so many", so somebody's gonna get a deal. Good luck with your sales and maybe we can get something worked out

ouch - It would hurt me to see that happen to this fantastic neck -
but hey - you buy it and you can do whatever you want

You can get a unlined fretless mighty mite neck for usually under 100.00 bucks delivered from Amazon
