Classic Bass in Very Good Condition
Available for purchase is this 2006 Fender FSR (Fender Special Release) 60th Anniversary Deluxe Jazz Bass, made in Mexico, all original but with a tasteful upgrade installed. This is an absolute beast of a bass, which plays beautifully, sounds killer, and is extremely fun to play! The instrument is everything you could possibly want in a Jazz bass. The bridge pickup has been traded out for a Seymour Duncan Vintage JB1, which is a fantastic upgrade from the original pickup, however the original pickup is included in the sale if you should want to switch it back out. The condition is overall very good, with only a few small finish issues, none of which impact playability whatsoever. Most areas are completely free of issues, and from head on you'd think this bass was in Mint condition. There are two areas which have some finish damage (see photos) and one very small divot in the neck which we did not find disruptive to playability whatsoever. There are a few areas where you can see slight separation underneath the finish from the wood below. This is fairly common on instruments from this era and of this construction.
This instrument has been set up and inspected for playability and condition by Gabriel's Guitars of Spokane, WA. It is available for view/play/purchase at our showroom 3221 N Monroe St Spokane, WA 99205
Description from Fender:
Elegant and packed with versatile tones, the Deluxe Active Jazz Bass is ideal for bassists who need a flexible tone machine that looks great on stage. Fender's classic offset bass style is blended with powerful tone and smooth playing feel to create an instrument that punches well above its weight without breaking a working bassist's wallet. On stage or in the studio, the rich, timeless Jazz Bass tone will easily find a home in any style of music.
Powered by a pair of growling Vintage Noiseless™ Jazz Bass bridge pickups, this instrument's bright, full sound easily cuts through a mix, ensuring the bass is heard clearly while retaining punch and low end authority. Active/passive switching makes it easy to access both vintage-styled and modern voices, further extending this instrument's sonic flexibility. The robust control scheme includes a three-band active EQ with treble, mid and bass controls - each with boost and cut to accurately shape your tone - along with a pan pot for precision blending of the pickups' potent sound. The four-saddle Fender HiMass™ bridge improves every note's sustain and resonance, while enhancing the attack for lively tone that lets your sonic personality shine through. The "C"-shaped maple neck is comfortable for all playing styles and hosts a 1.5" synthetic bone nut and fast-playing 12"-radius fingerboard with 20 medium jumbo frets for a familiar playing feel.
The alder body bears a durable gloss polyester finish that looks great under the spotlight while being tough enough to shrug off the abuse of gigging and traveling. Classic Jazz Bass appointments include vintage-style black plastic Jazz Bass control knobs, nickel/chrome hardware, black pickup covers, pearloid dot inlays and a 3-ply B/W/B pickguard. Combining authentic design, modern performance and classic Fender tone, the Deluxe Active Jazz Bass rises to any playing occasion with style and sonic grace. Includes deluxe gig bag.
