2002 Fender Jazz Bass Vintage '62 RI Bass Guitar JB62 Japan CIJ Ocean Turquoise
Up for sale, a 2002 Fender Jazz Bass, "Crafted in Japan" with a rare Ocean Turquoise Metallic finish. This 1962 reissue (model JB62) Jazz Bass is simply a beautiful instrument, and the tone and feel easily match its good looks. Weighing a comfortable 9lbs 8oz, this Jazz Bass has a very solid feel with the bridge pickup providing an aggressive, yet full tone that accentuates the growl of a set of fresh roundwound strings. The neck pickup has a nice thump and presence as well, and the two single coils compliment each other nicely, with what we feel is the best sound the bass has to offer, equal parts midrange punch and low end warmth. Professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar, this JB62 Jazz Bass plays well with low action, 45-100 roundwound strings and spot-on intonation.
The neck has Fender's traditional 1 1/2" Jazz Bass nut width, with a full 34" scale and a slab rosewood fretboard on the one-piece maple neck. The frets show very little wear, with a fairly slender vintage width, well rounded crowns and no buzzing or dead spots. On the headstock, the tuners turn smoothly and hold pitch well. The lightly ambered peghead sports the correct '62 style "Fender Jazz Bass" decal, along with original chrome tuning machines with clover buttons and even the extra strap button seen on vintage Fenders until 1967.
All of the electronics work as they should, with stock pickups and pots. The chrome bridge and control plate have great shine and no notable wear, and the white pickguard contrasts nicely with the Ocean Turquoise Metallic finish. There are a few scattered nicks and dings on the body, mostly relegated to the top and bottom edges and all too small to properly photograph. There is also some light scratching in the pick path above the strings, but no serious wear of any kind. As the photos show, this is a very well cared for and finely crafted instrument.
Manufactured exclusively for the domestic Japanese market, these basses are rarely seen outside of Japan. With Fender's recent decision to discontinue many of the Japanese reissue models, these instruments are quickly becoming much more rare and sought after, with custom color examples commanding a premium!
A Fender branded gray tweed G&G hardshell case is included, along with the original Fender Japan gigbag (not pictured).
