THeres no info on the body. If you look at the FS thread I state its an AM deluxe preamp. Im guessing its an AM body with a replacement neck

My '97 American Deluxe was string through. I don't know if Mexi Deluxe Jazz basses from that era were.

Upon looking some up, it appears USA were string through and Mexi were not. I found several examples. Here's one.

Looks like you have a Mexi Deluxe with a sweet replacement neck.
