Tone & Playability

This Jazz Bass delivers everything you'd want from a top-tier J:

  • Articulate attack with vintage warmth
  • Comfortable, fast-playing neck with low action and perfect intonation thanks to a full setup here at Guitar Chimp

Why This Bass Stands Out

✅ Japan-exclusive model — never officially sold in the U.S.
✅ Striking Walnut finish over ash body
✅ Black chrome hardware – rarely seen on vintage-style Js
✅ Made in Japan quality – legendary attention to detail
✅ Professionally set up — ready for stage or studio
