2012 Fender Jazz Bass JB/HO Semi-Hollow Mahogany Body Black, Blocks & Binding, Japan MIJ
Resonant and deep, the mahogany semi-hollow construction offers terrific midrange growl and fundamental warmth. The pair of single coil pickups deliver quintessential Jazz Bass burp and grind, with a particularly broad and rumbling quality with the neck pickup favored and the Tone knob rolled back. This JB/HO weighs 8lbs 12oz, benefitting from a professional setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-100 roundwound strings, easy-playing action, and accurate intonation.
Neck Specs:
-Wood: Maple
-Shape: Slender U, measuring .825” 1st fret, .995” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Rosewood, modern 9 1/2" radius, pearloid block inlays
-Frets: Medium jumbo, no wear
-Scale Length: 34”
-Nut: 1 1/2”, bone
-Tuners: Clover buttons
-Serialization: “Made in Japan,” JD12-prefix
Body Specs:
-Wood: Mahogany
-Pickups: JB-Vintage single coil x2
-Controls: Volume x2, Tone
-Hardware: Bridge with spiral (threaded) saddles, control plate
-Plastics: Three-ply tortoise pickguard, pointer knobs
The gloss Black finish is framed on top by cream binding, with cosmetic wear limited to a bit of pick scuffing, light buckle wear, and some small finish scuffs and dings consistent with light use. The gloss on the neck profile is flawless.
A Fender-branded gigbag is included.
