SOLD! Price reduced to $750 OBO!
Up for sale is my 1990 Fender Jazz Plus made in the USA! Has active and passive capabilities.
I just got back from Bass Northwest, a bass only store, here in Seattle. I was telling Evan, the owner, about this bass and he said in the 16 years the store has been open, not one of these, a clear swamp ash and maple Fender Jazz Plus, has made it’s way into the store and he’s never seen one like this before. These are rare.
I’m the second owner. The original owner put her up for sale after 6 months of owning her and decided to stick with his walnut P bass and sell her to me. I bought the bass off him in 1991 and had her ever since. The bass has been in it’s original soft shell case for most of it’s life. I just don’t play it that much and my taste in tone has changed and I need the cash.
With the Ash body and the Maple neck this thing has focused lows, strong mids and more highs then you’ll ever need. This bass will get you closer to a Marcus Miller tone than a James Jamerson sound. With a thin, sleek, fast neck it’s a great slapper too!
For a 20 year old bass, I would say the condition of the bass is very good. On a scale from 1-10, I would rate it at 8.5 to 9. There are some very light scuffs and scratches here and there, but not a single major ding in the bass body. There is a minor ding near the truss rod access; it was there when I bought it.
I should note the control cover does have a scratch on it.
The control cavity in fully shielded. No hum or noise in the pickups or pots/knobs.
Comes with the original Fender gig bag.
Adult owned and never thrashed around.
For this rare beauty I’m asking
$800 OBO.
Reduced to $750 OBO
You can run trades by me but I really need the cash.
Would love a Pedulla 4 string fretless
