Excellent++ Fender Elite jazz bass, with OHSC
Get ultimate tonal flexibility with this American Elite Jazz Bass. Comfortably play all positions on the neck thanks to the compound profile neck.
FYI, I sold this bass a while back, but I bought it back! But now I must let it go to a new home...

Fender American Elite Jazz Bass Maple
Packed to the gills with Fender's latest revolutionary innovations, the American Elite Jazz Bass is an active 4-string bass for the modern bassist who demands cutting-edge tone technology along with timeless style and fast, smooth playing feel. Its versatile sound easily matches any playing style--picked, plucked, or slap-and-pop--while its standout looks remain authentically Fender, with a fresh twist.

With the exclusive all-new fourth-generation Noiseless pickups we've achieved the sonic equivalent of cold fusion--vintage-style response with completely noise-free performance. These muscular pickups are fueled by a redesigned robust 18-volt preamp that cranks up the power for even more signal quality for a chest-thumping tone with more headroom and reduced noise. Designed for fast playing and effortless position changes, the compound profile neck with a 9.5"-14" compound radius fingerboard is ideal for all playing styles. A modern "C"-shape at the new synthetic bone nut, the profile morphs along the length of the neck to a modern "D"-shaped profile at the updated neck heel, providing plenty of comfortable support for fret hand antics. Posiflex graphite support rods run the length of the neck, adding stability to the neck while resisting temperature- and humidity-induced warping. The HiMass Vintage bridge increases note attack and resonance for thunderous basslines with colossal punch and boundless sustain while allowing either top-load or strings-thru-body stringing. In a vintage-inspired touch, the new truss rod adjustment wheel has been moved to the butt end of the neck for easier access, making neck relief adjustments a snap.

This bass is packed with Fender's immortal aesthetics--from the ergonomic contours to the black chrome headstock logo, large Pearloid fret markers, and new color this instrument will pin the audience's ears back with its gigantic tone and slick style. The American Elite Jazz Bass is a bold new bass for adventurous bassists who need a tonal multi-tool that refuses to compromise on any front. Includes a redesigned hardshell case with TSA locks. Includes a redesigned Elite Molded Case with body-hugging contours to provide increased protection for your cherished instrument and TSA locks.

Have you thought about fixing that pickup issue/ replacing? It is probably not that expensive to do so. The bass
would sell then. Electronics are much simpler to upgrade/ replace with the newer models starting with the deluxe( the model prior to the Elite).I would still buy the bass as is.
If you need someone to do research on what you need and how much. Ive got nothing but time. Let me know ...cheers

I don't see that this bass has any pickup issues at all, perhaps you posted this reply in the wrong thread? There is an Elite Jazz bass with a pickup issue listed here: For Sale - 2019 Fender Elite Jazz Bass

Dude ***...This bass is perfect...before you talk read the book

Which is basically what I was saying when the other TB member posted the thing about the pickup issue in the wrong thread (see apology above - and that he has since then deleted his post)... :thumbsup:

I'm actually pretty well read... :smug:
