Fender changed music forever with the introduction of the electric bass in 1959 with the Precision Bass and then again in 1960 with the Jazz Bass.
The 60th Anniversary Jazz Bass has two Pure Vintage ‘62 pickups. A pair of concentric volume and tone controls allow complete command over the blend and character of each pickup – a feature first found on the very earliest J-Bass models from 1960 to 1962. Other features include an alder body and maple neck with a bound rosewood fingerboard, bone nut, vintage-correct 7.25” radius, vintage tall frets, and a fast and comfortable ’60s “U” profile. The lacquer finish in Arctic Pearl is complemented by the tortoiseshell pickguard, white binding on the neck and matching headcap, making the 60th Anniversary Jazz Bass an unforgettable modern classic. Also included are a deluxe vintage-style case with 60th anniversary embroidery and certificate of authenticity.
This Fender 60th Anniversary Jazz Bass is in excellent condition and has some minor wear on the pickguard as well as a smudge from being on a wall hanger.
