Does the neck plate on the back have the Fender "F" on it?
There is one for sale around here but there's no "F" on the neck plate. |

These Classic 70's are so nice that a plain neck plate looks out of place. The 70's theme is so well represented Fender should have included one.

I'm thinking about a pickup swap for my Classic 70's Jazz. Looking at Aguilar 70's & Nordstrand 70's. I could use some help, suggestions/opinions on these or other pickup options. Thanks.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2010 Location: San Diego | | Went into the local GC and was looking at the used basses. I saw this on the wall and took it down and played. Spent about two hours a/b numerous old and new basses. This spoke out for sure. And the plus? Got it for $449.00 plus tax. I went ahead and did a setup, and switched the bridge out for a B.A. I had.

|  | Registered User | | | | | Do any of you know if the body on this model has the 'valley of impending death' rout or can it be used without a pickguard? I can't remember what mine was like (traded it a while back). |

The body is from a Fender Classic 70's Jazz bass and the neck is off of a new Fender Antigua Jazz Bass (70's type neck but with dots instead of blocks).  |

Pickguard issues come up often enough in this thread. Maybe grab a beer and cruise the responses.

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: Oxnard, CA | | | Well, I've read through the posts twice and I see little mention of which guards actually fit this bass.
I went to basspartsresource.com and had to go with the "after market" B/W/B because the only Fender-made options were either not available in black or had the truss rod notch at the heel. The guard I bought, attached, doesn't fit.
Anyway, if anyone knows where to get a B/W/B guard that will fit this bass let me know.
Or if one of you kind "Sunburst & Tort" gentlemen wanna sell me your unused black guard I would much appreciate it.
The bass is smokin', by the way! Most resonant bass I've ever owned. I could not be happier with it. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
