The Fender Jazz Bass was introduced in 1960 as a higher-end alternative to the Precision Bass with closer string spacing, a thinner neck profile at the nut, and two punchy single-coil pickups. The Jazz Bass evolved in a number of subtle ways throughout the 60s with major changes coming during the CBS Fender buyout of 1965. By 1973, a maple fingerboard with block inlays was the standard for Jazz Basses. So a 73 Jazz bass is a very desirable model, and this example is fantastic. Clearly in very well played condition, this bass has only benefited in feel, tone and character. It’s very comfortable to play, the neck feels just right and the action is great. It comes in it’s original Fender embossed black tolex ’suitcase’ style case, also in very used condition and missing it’s handle.
