The bass is in good shape. Based on the serial # I believe it is a 1997. There are a few dings on the body which I have pictured. The pickups have been upgraded with EMG's. The controls are the standard controls that come with the EMG pickups (VOL VOL active tone). No additional EQ has been added. The 4th knob on the bass is just a dummy knob.
I'm asking $350$325$300 shipped in the CONUS $250 shipped
I've also opened this up for a trade see the details below.

Reason: price drop
Forth knob is a blend knob. I have this ones sibling!
Nope. 4th knob isn't even hooked up. Its not the stock electronics. Its wired VOL-VOL-TONE. If you look at EMG's website at the P-J set it comes with 2 volume pots and 1 tone pot. The 4th knob is definitely dead.
From everything I've read online the F signifies the bass was made in the Fuji-gen plant. Since it's a 7 digit number it means it was made after 1989 and the first 2 digits signify the date meaning its a 97. Also the jade metallic was offered in 97 and not 99, and finally the bridge is the same as the 1997 model according to the catalog.
I'm also open for a trade on a 4 string bass with jazz pickups or a nice jazz body. If its just the body I'd prefer not MIM. I've got some Delanos on the way with nothing to install them in at the moment. It doesn't have to be a Fender style bass I'm just looking for something with Jazz pickups that I can mod. I'm not looking for anything in particular so if you've got something you're interested in trading shoot me a PM. Cash on either end as needed.
