Fender 32" Medium Scale Jazz Bass - Value Check?

I'm looking for a value check on this MIJ Fender 32" Medium Scale Jazz Bass.

Here's the listing...
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1409122516...84.m1423.l2649

Seller is looking for GBP 525 which is about US 750. Is it worth it?

Not a bad price.

I have both the P and Jazz bass in the 32" medium scale. The one you are looking at is not that rare. You can buy them out of Japan now. However the $750 price is not bad. Most of the ones on the bay are about $1000. I lucked up and got both of mine here on TB and they cost $600. So if you look here you may find a few others for better prices. Howver if this is the one you want that is a fair price.

I would say yes.

I have one that I imported from Japan. With shipping and duties they cost about $1200-1300 here. The quality of these are great. All the ones I have seen are light too.
The neck is very thin, it is like a 32" Geddy Lee.

Thanks for the input guys. I'm on the fence really, if it were a P-Bass - I wouldn't have even posted my question. But it's not...
