FS/FT: Fender Jazz Geddy Lee Excellent Condition - PRICE DROP

Sign in to disble this ad
Ok so my quest to add a 6'r to my arsenal is causing me to unload some axes. I recently picked up this Fender CIJ Jazz Geddy Lee which as a serial that dates it in 1994/1995 (Thanks fellow TBrs for pointing that this date would be impossible. I finally found a source that states that this is between a 2006 and 2008) Sorry for the confusion.
It plays like a dream and is great condition.

You would think it is brand new at first glance and have to really inspect it to find the flaws. There is some swirling in the finish but now I am getting really picky. I took a pick of the tiny nick on the headstock and the scratches around the backside of the neck around the 12th fret. It is not through the finish at all on the neck so it only noticeable if you place your thumb up on the top part of the neck and it isn't roughed up. Does not affect playability or feel in anyway. Again, I am trying to look at it as a buyer and point out every little flaw that I could find.

$700 $675 plus shipping to CONUS
GAS HAS A HOLD AND NEED TO MOVE THIS FINE INSTRUMENT
It will be properly boxed and shipped in a gig bag

Trades:
Yamaha TRB 6'rs or other 6 strings with 17/18mm spacing. Would consider additional cash from my end if necessary.

According to Guitar Nucleus - Fender Serial Numbers
S+6 digits is a 1994/1995
I have seen well kept basses from 2004 that don't look this good!

You are right... they were first made in 1998. Any help dating this would be helpful. Here is the serial:
Made in Japan

NO WONDER IT LOOKS SO NEW!!! I so impressed when I looked up the serial that this was from 1994.
