FS: 2008 Fender American Standard Jazz Bass V (5-string)
This is a 2008 (first year run) of the American Standard Series Jazz Bass V. This is a great playing, sounding bass - comes with the awesome hardshell case & all the Fender case goodies that originally came inside it (Fender T-shape truss rod tool, polish cloth, Fender strap, etc).
The condition of the bass is very, very good. On a 1-10 scale, I'd say 9.3 for sake of discussion. Definitely way better than you're gonna find in a GC or most other places used (E-bay, etc). Extremely light playing wear, no obvious or deep scratches or any such thing happening in the finish. What little marks are there cannot be made to show up in the close-up photos. The instrument was played about 15-20 gigs & has been very well maintained & kept in its case when not in use. In fact, the vast majority of its stay has gone unused altogether sitting in its case. Rather than becoming a "closet classic", this should be played.
No custom adjustments or alterations have been performed (no nut work, etc.) with the exception of adding Dunlop strap locks & a different pickguard. The Dunlop strap buttons are included & I will also include the strap buttons that came with the bass. I seem to have temporarily misplaced the original pickguard although I need to look a little harder, as I know I did not throw it away. If I can round it up, I will include it as well - although it is easily replaceable, the stock guard is kind of plain white & rather bland looking, IMO. That said, the Brown Shell pickguard in the pics will be included. The pics also show a white pearl pickguard (
not included) just to give an idea how it looks wearing a couple different guards.
The first 4 pics were taken just this morning - as you can see, not much has changed since it was brand new (pics towards the bottom). Again, it has been kept in fine condition.
Current street price is at $1400.00 for these basses brand-new.
I am asking $900.00 (shipped insured in CONUS only). I can ship outside the US, but shipping & insurance rates are the buyer's responsibility in addition to the asking price. I prefer PayPal, but I can also accept Postal Money Orders, checks.
Unfortunately, I am not interested in ANY trades whatsoever.
