I kinda hate to sell this lovely bass, but my studio desperately needs new reference monitors, and this one gets played the least... so here goes.
E series MIJ '62 R.I. (first run for Fender Japan) in Olympic white, with custom red tortoise shell pick guard, and Dimarzio passive, noiseless j-pickups. Schaller strap buttons on it, but I’ll include the original Fenders, if you’d like ‘em, too. HSC included, non-original, but very sturdy and clean.
I bought this bass from the amazing Tom Broeske (emblymouse on TB), who had played it in my band for several years, before moving on to other Jazzes. He set it up perfectly, action not too high or too low, but just right! $900 $850[ $800 shipped to ConUS, super-safely boxed in HSC. Monday-only one-day sale!

Lighter than my 4001 and my '51 P-bass, heavier than my Jerry Jones! |

My reasonably-accurate digital bathroom scale says 9 lbs on the nose. Feels lighter to me on my 3" wide Souldier straps, but there you go.
I suppose it's worth noting that I am a motivate seller at this point, so reasonable offers will be entertained. |

It's a fine trad looking Jazz with DiMarzio muscle under the hood. I replaced the brown tort guard with a custom Pickguardian nitro red tort. Recommended    |
