This is a budget price, gig ready version of Fender's venerable Jazz bass, albeit with a few tweaks. The hot rod mods include active preamp circuitry, pickup blend control, 3 band tone controls and a slap switch. Featuring a basswood body, a maple neck with a r0sewood fingerboard, 34" scale and 2.0"nut width, this baby gets so funky you could smell it. This has all the pop and punch you could want! Weighing in at 10 lbs. 4 ozs., this bass in pretty good shape. There are a few small finish impressions and swirls and the battery cover is missing. Frets are in good condition and show very slight wear. Be the tone champ laying down the low end with this affordable 5 string jazzer!
