It's a year and a half old and in excellent condition. These basses sold for $2,300 new. It sounds and plays like a dream. Made in USA.

One very small nick on edge of neck and one on headstock, otherwise it's mint. Having trouble getting them to show in a picture. Will keep trying.

Currently strung with LaBella SuperSteps and will include two more new sets.

Sorry, no trades.

Fender Victor Bailey Jazz V 5 String Electric Bass Features:
• Two Samarium Cobalt Noiseless 5-String Jazz Bass pickups add warmth and low end
• Highly detailed nut and fret work
• Koa and rosewood over mahogany body for an elegant look with unique tone
• Fender/Schaller deluxe lightweight tuners
• Bailey caricature graphic on the headstock

The circuitry has been tweaked at the input stage (pre-shape, boost and EQ settings) to enhance the unique sonic nature of the woods. Bass EQ is centered at 40Hz +/- 12dB with a 4dB per-octave slope; treble is centered at 8 kHz +/- 10dB with a 2dB per-octave slope (treble cut serves more as a passive control for warm organic tones); mid-control is centered at 500Hz and +10dB and -15dB with a wide-band slope creating a distinctive voice. For maximum headroom, the circuit has an 18-volt power supply.
