This is a rare transition 1966 Jazz that has been lovingly restored to it's original splendor!!
Why refinish an old J bass you ask.....well a (insert bad word) previous owner thought it would be a good idea to refinish the bass himself with stain and a brush applied clear coat...ughhh. enough said
The Candy Apple Red Nitro finish (done to exact same specs as factory 1966), the frets and the pickguard are the restoration work done by George Furlinetto of F BASS, who is one of the best in the business but I'm sure if you are a TB'er ...you already know that!
The rest of the bass is all original and features:
Original Rare bound & dotted fingerboard
Original Rare "lollypop" tuners
Original Pre - CBS pickups
Original Pots dated to late 1965
Everything you would expect from a 1966 jazz! The neck feels incredible and the bass is a very comfortable 8.75 lbs
I am asking $5000
Please no trade offers (tax bill put this up for sale!!)
