More than 30 years after his death, the Fender Fretless Bass is synonymous with this great musical legend. The moment this JB62-77FL lands in your hands you may feel a pulsating force of inspiration radiate from your musical soul to the tips of your fingers. This sensation leads you to feel exactly like Jaco did every time he put this iconic bass in his hands... "Music is in the air; it's my job to pull it out." The Three Tone Sunburst finish of this fretless jazz bass is vibrant and allows for all the grain on the body to peek through. It has a great sound with plenty of thump. It is very resonant and will only get better as time goes on. As far as playability goes, it is in perfect shape and sounds like a killer Fender jazz bass should. It carries out all the thumps and punches you crave and expect in an almost effortless manor. The action and intonation are spot on and the neck is nice and straight and the truss rod functions flawlessly. The rosewood fretboard is a rich, brown color, which when paired with all the physical attributes of this bass simply capture that authentic vintage vibe. It has been kept in very nice condition and has some light play-wear. There are a handful of small dings, dents & light surface scratches, but overall this monster remains very clean. It has two ding that was repaired and touched up on the edge by where your arm rests. Whether you want to keep it as a sweet reminder of a musician who we lost too soon, or are a player seeking a killer companion... this bass is sure to check every box and hit every spot!Features: Body: AlderNeck: Maple Oval TypeFretboard: Rosewood / 20 FretsPickups: JB Single Coil Controls: 2V, 1TBridge: VintageFinish: 3T Sunburst🔥 This bass has been professionally set up and dialed in for optimal tone and playability.

The Dude Abides.Neck & Setup (unless otherwise noted)- Neck is perfectly straight with no truss rod issues.- Intonation is spot-on.- Professionally set up with low action and new American-made strings.- All frets are dressed, leveled, crowned (if needed), and polished to shine like new, with no divots.Return Policy, Restocking Fees & No Tire-Kicking PolicyWe follow Reverb's 7-day return policy. However:- You must notify us in writing within 3 days of delivery (per tracking) of your intent to return.- Original shipping and return shipping costs are not refunded unless the guitar is damaged in transit or is significantly not as described (for example, you ordered red and got white, or a Telecaster instead of a Les Paul).- A 15% restocking fee applies to all returns for any reason other than damage in transit or significantly not as described. Please note that a 15% restocking fee applies to orders that have been purchased and paid for and have been off the market for 24 hours or more, even if they have not been shipped or picked up by the carrier, because we perform a final setup and change the strings as soon as an order is placed and paid for. NO EXCEPTIONS.We do our best to honestly describe and photograph every guitar and most of the noticeable imperfections. That said, we are human, and something very small can be overlooked. If tiny marks, dings, or super fine scratches (normal wear) bother you, please don't buy.We record demo videos of every guitar before shipping to document its exact condition and performance. Additional photos, measurements, or in-hand descriptions are available upon request prior to purchase.Minor adjustments to a setup (for example, correcting a slight buzz or a truss rod tweak) are normal after shipping, due to carrier mishandling and climate and atmospheric changes, especially when moving from South Florida to colder or less humid environments. These slight issues do not constitute "significantly not as described." Guitars must be returned in the exact same condition as received/advertised, or additional repair/restocking fees will apply.We are a small, family-owned and family-run business, not a big-chain retailer. We invest significant time, money, and effort into every guitar. This is a NO TIRE-KICKING shop. There is no post-purchase haggling, and there are no returns without restocking fees and no partial refunds. If minor cosmetic marks, tiny imperfections, odors/smells, or the possibility of a post-shipping setup tweak makes you uncomfortable, please do not buy. Plenty of large retailers offer free trials and can absorb shipping costs; we do not.Payment, Shipping & International Duties- All items can be shipped internationally. The buyer is fully responsible for all import duties, taxes, and customs fees.- We accept PayPal, PayPal Credit, Affirm, and other major payment methods.- Most U.S. shipments are sent via UPS or FedEx with full insurance, tracking, and signature confirmation. All packages are professionally packed for maximum protection.International Shipping NoteInternational shipping prices shown are for most countries; certain countries have higher costs. We try to avoid USPS and mostly ship UPS, but in certain situations USPS is the only available or reasonable carrier. Express services (UPS, DHL, FedEx) are always available. We can't undervalue merchandise, as it could not be properly insured.
