NBD My first true Jazz Bass

[Brentt68]

My first true Jazz Bass! I love it! It's a 1998 Fender American Deluxe Jazz Bass with a Mary Kaye finish. I upgraded the bridge to a Hipshot and changed the nut to bone, but it is immaculate no dings or wear at all. I had the frets dressed and set up. It's awesome and it's 22 frets with a smaller body with the Suhr pickups. I am so happy!

i agree, Suhr are amazing pickups. I usually go with Lollar's but this time I am sticking with the original pick ups.

You will never let that go. It's one of Fender's finest bar none !!!

I had to come back and add this,
that bass with the Suhr pickups and electronics is the Holy Grail of Fender basses
IMO they should still be making them
If they did I'd have one. And they're getting rarer because people are wising up and holding on to them.

Looks great! If only you had the 70's neck to go with it. I almost bought the white PJ yesterday. It looks soooo clean.

But yours, is very classic. I bought a talman 605 instead though. But, I almost went for whitey.

I once had a 97 American deluxe jazz. It was the one that got away. Best bass I've ever owned. That era is underrated. I'm jealous. I hope you enjoy it! Nice bass!
