Fender Japan JB62-US confirm legit please

Hi yall. Just bought this JB62-US Crafted in Japan Serial PO dates between 1999-2002.
Unfortunately no ID in the neck pocket or neck but I believe this was common this era. Can someone tell me if the PU appear to be US? It has the larger style tuners I think too. Also can only show the wood in the neck pocket but can anyone confirm if this looks like Alder or Basswood. The electronics are super quiet but I thought it would have CTS pots.

Any help appreciated....
