Not any more. Seems to be $879 now.

Looks like the ~20 that were shipped and sold by Amazon sold out. TB should get a kickback lol.
There were deals on Adorama for Vinteras as well. Mustang still listed:Invalid Link Removed
Not as good as what Amazon had...

Thanks to you people I now own a 60's firemist gold Jazz. Fender also got me with their late 50s Squier black Friday this year, so maybe I need to stop hanging around TalkBass so much 
Looks like the 60s and 70s Jazz are still available, $588 and $613. Remember when the Standard Mexican Fenders sold at this price point? Wasn't too long ago. Now they are creeping up to $1000-1200.
Hopefully it's not too heavy, but at this price point I can afford to take that chance.

GC and Sweetwater should price match it. You can pick the the one you want at Sweetwater though the gold ones are all about the same weight, just over 9lbs.

Congratulations to all the takers though.
I agree fully. I had a rough night, lolThank goodness!

If I hadn't just bought an Aerodyne Jazz for $599, I'd be all over one of these. Either the 70s jazz or 50s P.
I actually have a Daphne Blue 60s Vintera J I got earlier this year and it's an awesome Bass. It made me rethink my stance on Pau Ferro because I got a rather dark example but with that being said, I don't know if I would buy another Pau Ferro board. The magic for me is the 7.25 radius and while it's my heaviest bass, It actually balances very well and I enjoy alder bodies.
The Aerodyne to me has the better neck being satin finish and rosewood. The 12 radius certainly helps with playability as well. With that being said the basswood body is definitely softer so they can be lighter and more unbalanced.
I love both of them and they are both great deals so anyone who is interested should take advantage of these prices.

Count me in as someone who also has a new firemist gold Jazz Bass coming.
I’m really glad I happened on this thread yesterday so I could grab a Dakota Red P-bass at that price. It was irresistible. I have a Squire CV P that I love, but I look forward to this one with a maple neck and even more vintage specs.
Well that was fast! Gotta love next day shipping.

Congrats - I have to wait 'til Friday apparently. I can't wait!
What do you think?
Bummed I missed the red P or I would have bought that too! The silver 70s Jazz looks like the only one still available.
Irresistible is also the word I’d use for this deal. For me, there’s not much better than a great deal on a vintage-spec bass that gets a lot of love on the pages of these fora.
What made it much better? Hearing my wife say, “You don’t have a red one…”
I bought both the 70's and 60's Jazz basses at 5:00 this morning, to hard to pass up!
