Bass is in good shape, it is not new, it has been played and might have some small marks but nothing mayor or that stands out immediately to me. I got in on a trade and I have the exact same bass in black, I was planning on having this one with flats and perhaps different tuning but honestly it doesn’t make sense to have 2 of the same, so here we go.


According to my not professional not super exact luggage scale bass is around 8.5 my bathroom scale is close to lower than 9.0 lbs so give or take I cannot swear on the weight but feels good to me.
What I can say is that I suffer back issues and I can play this bass with no issues, I have other Fenders I just can’t play standing for long periods of time this is not one of them

Thanks
  • This baby had a Professional setup with fresh new strings just today (Jan 8)
  • Change strings to flats and it sounds awesome.

This is a long shot, but given your avatar and the color of this Jazz, is the pick guard a nod to Ged's Crimson Red Jazz?

Haha, very cool. I did the same thing to a Red Highway One Jazz I had years ago. I'm a maple guy myself, kind of wish this one was maple cause it's gorgeous. GLWTS.

Beautiful Pro Jazz! Love the CAR and RW finger board. I purchased a new 2017 American Pro Jazz (black w/maple board) about 6 months ago (GC was having a weekend sale and I guess it had been in their inventory a while). Easily the best playing and sound Jazz that I've owned (and I've had quite a few). Bought it on the spot.
I suppose that I could have just gotten a magical one but bases on the one that I have, the Pro Jazz basses are the best Fender's made.

I'd love to have one with the RW finger board but unfortunately I'm at my limit of 3 Fender 4's.
Great deal though!

I agree the professional line is just great, Proof to that is I own an identical jazz pro but in black (only reason I am selling this one, it is nuts for me to have the same exact bass twice) also own a professional P4 rosewood and a Professional P5 maple.

great basses for sure

Beautiful bass! I’m surprised it’s still listed. These Am Pro Jazz Basses really are very nice and underrated. I love mine! Best of luck with the sale!

Any interest in trading for a 2015 American P5 on Oly white? Or a mid 90's Carvin fretless 5?
