Fender Jazz ’62 RI Japan

[waynobass]

Fender Jazz Bass, ’62 RI, Crafted in Japan, approx. 2001. Color is Old Candy Apple Red. Beautiful dark rosewood board and vintage-style thin frets.

Back of the neck has one ding behind the 5th fret. It’s above the center, so my thumb never felt it. A few small dings on the bottom of the body, none thru the finish. A mar on the headstock below the logo. Some rust on the pickup poles.

Upgrades include new Gotoh bridge and Fender tugbar; replacement of control plate and tone pot.

Weight is around 9 pounds. Good balance. Strung with GHS Precision Flats (45-100). Comes with a nice Levy’s gigbag.

The CIJ 62RI's really are very nice instruments. I enjoy mine as much as my SAD RV4 and CS64 Jazz Basses.

Good luck w/ the sale!

High gloss or nitro finish on the body?

[waynobass]

Not nitro. High gloss poly, I guess.

These have kind of a C shaped neck, correct? Nice looker!

[waynobass]

Thanks! Neck profile is like other Jazzes I've played. The difference is the skinny frets and glossy vintage tint.
