Custom Fender American Vintage '74 Jazz Bass Black

Brand new '74 Jazz Bass' with Fender hard case.
Beautiful looking bass.
There is a slight indentation on the front of the body (see photo) and on the rear of the neck.
Huge saving on current RRP of £1559 (which is about to go up again soon)!


Significant changes were afoot in 1974 for the Jazz Bass®.
The bridge pickup had been moved about half an inch closer to the bridge only the year before, and 1974 saw the last of the four-bolt necks for quite a while.
Further, the slim C-shaped maple neck was re-sculpted with a meatier U-shaped profile (and acquired a walnut "skunk" stripe), white fingerboard binding and pearl block inlays made their first appearance, headstock "bullet" truss rod nuts were first adopted, and black pickguards replaced their longstanding tortoiseshell predecessors.
