1965 Fender Jazz Bass
This vintage 1965 Fender Jazz Bass has survived in very nice condition and is a fantastic playing example. It's been played and loved but is ready for life with its new owner.
Make and Model: Fender Jazz Bass
Year: 1965, “7APR65A” neck stamp, 104xxx serial
Specifications: 9lbs 8oz, 1 1/2″ nut width, .73″ neck depth at the 1st, .96″ neck depth at the 12th, 34″ scale length
Originality: All parts appear to be original except the strings. I added some foam underneath the pickups to gain height.
Condition: Excellent. There’s some significant thumb wear next to the pickguard and some buckle rash on the back of the guitar. There is fret wear but it doesn’t impede playing. The neck is straight and the truss rod is in excellent working condition. All electronics are smooth and working properly. The case handle is missing.
Playability: Excellent! The neck is straight and the original frets have a lot of life left in them.
