1989 Fender Jazz Bass ‘62 Vintage Reissue JB62-75 Sunburst 100% Original, Japan MIJ Fujigen

1989 Fender Jazz Bass ‘62 Vintage Reissue JB62-75 Sunburst 100% Original, Japan MIJ Fujigen

Up for sale, a 1989 Fender Jazz Bass ‘62 vintage reissue model JB62-75 in 100% original condition and in perfect working order. This “Made in Japan” Jazz Bass was crafted at the venerable Fujigen factory during the golden age of Fender Japan production, uncommon outside of its country of origin. Vintage-correct touches include long-stem clover button tuners with full-size baseplates, spiral (threaded) saddles, and a pencil-dated neck heel.

Tonewoods include an alder body, maple neck, and slab rosewood fretboard, and at 8lbs 14oz, this instrument offers sweet sustain and a balanced, smooth acoustic quality. Plugged in, the pair of single coil pickups deliver a touch of aggressive growl, ample midrange presence and burp, and focused low end power. This JB62-75 benefits from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-100 roundwound strings, easy-playing action, and accurate intonation.

-Wood: Maple
-Shape: Slender U, measuring .795” 1st fret, .995” 12th fret

-Frets: Slender, no wear

-Controls: Volume x2, Tone
-Harness: Full-size Japanese pots date to October, 1989
-Hardware: Bridge with spiral (threaded) saddles, control plate
-Plastics: Four-ply tortoise pickguard, pointer knobs

The gloss three-tone Sunburst finish shows light pick scuffing on top, an area of buckle rash adjacent to the belly carve, one large/shallow ding on the back, and some additional minor nicks and scuffs on the body as a whole. The ambered gloss finish on the neck profile is smooth and clean.

A gigbag is included.
