About This Listing

1996 Fender 50th Anniversary American Jazz Bass


This bass has been set up well and plays fast and smooth up and down the neck.


Weight is 9.7lbs. All original with no mods except perhaps the strap buttons.

Always taken care of, consider this bass in very good condition. The pickguard has minor marks and some wear on the guard near the truss rod. There’s some marks around the control knobs and surrounding area. Below the tailpiece there’s scratches near and along the edge of the body and also scratches on the bass side horn and along the bass edge. On the back of the body, moderate play wear throughout. There’s a ding near the neck plate along the belly cut. The back of the neck has a couple very small dings as does the headstock.


Comes with hard shell case.
