For Sale: 1997 Fender Japan JB75-90US ’75 Reissue Jazz Bass – 3-Tone Sunburst | CIJ | USA Pickups | Gig Bag

Up for sale is a 1997 Fender Japan JB75-90US '75 Reissue Jazz Bass in 3-Tone Sunburst — a Crafted in Japan (CIJ) model that perfectly captures the vintage aesthetic and tone of the classic 1975 Jazz Bass. This bass features a rosewood fingerboard, block inlays, white binding, and comes loaded with original USA Fender Jazz Bass pickups.

This is a player's bass with serious mojo. The neck on this one is exceptionally thin and fast — a standout feel that makes this instrument a joy to play. It’s been gigged and loved, showing honest wear with scratches and dings throughout, but remains in great working order. I'd rate it a solid 7.5/10 condition overall.
