Is this genuine?

Looks fine to me.
What makes you think it's not real?

490 pounds seems pretty heavy for that bass!

Its just it seems pretty cheap compared to stock prices (even considering that its used).

Serial number Z6172634 indicates it was made in 2006.

Looks like the '75 Jazz Bass reissue in 2006. It has an ash body. I can't tell much more.

Looks like he just forgot to put "re-issue" in the title.

What's that, like 800 bucks american?

Looks genuine to me. That is very cheap though for a US model. Keep in mind the chrome bridge cover will not fit with that Schaller bridge installed.

Edit: By genuine I meant a genuine 75' Reissue...

Just saw that the truss rod access is at the headstock. Is that right? I'm checking.

Yes. The American 75'RI has the bullet truss rod at the headstock

Japan 75'RI does not.

Cheers for the help guys.

 

[SnakeKappele]

Yep, checks out! Looks good.

Yep, it's a 75 RI from 06. I have played one of these and they are great basses. Considering the relavtively high European prices, this is a VERY good deal. I have seen them here in Denmark for around 1600 GBP new... And it looks like it's in fine condition.

It looks right to me

That's a pretty big omission no? I mean if you are trying to sell it as a 75 Jazz..
