This vintage 1975 Fender USA Jazz Bass features a slightly reddish sunburst finish. It shows weather checking in places but exudes the raw power of real vintage rather than a relic. The important aspect of sound is that it has been well-played over the years, and due to its heavy ash body, it delivers astonishing bass depth while simultaneously offering a bright tone due to its one-piece maple neck, epitomizing the sound of this era's Jazz Bass. It was purchased second-hand about ten years ago. This is a highly rare full original vintage 1975 Fender USA Jazz Bass. Thank you for considering this opportunity. **Body Material**: The ash body, which began to adopt the sunburst finish around 1974, features a one-piece maple neck. The grain of this piece is relatively subdued and showcases beautiful aesthetics. Due to the unique White Ash body from this era, it weighs approximately 4.67kg. The black pickguard and relocated finger rest on the four-string side are characteristics that date back to around 1974. From 1975, the neck joint changed from the traditional four bolts to a three-bolt micro-tilt adjustment, which this instrument also adopts. There are marks indicating a paint handle installation on the neck joint area, which also contains the body date "4655". Many examples do not have a body date, but this one can be identified as 1975 based on the precise "4655" batch code (46th week, 75th year, Friday). The neck end date is hard to discern as it’s faded; however, decipherable parts lead to the conclusion that it is also from 1975. The head features a CBS logo with a patent number, and the tuners are nickel-plated with registered marks. **Pickups**: These pickups use a gray bobbin and dark enamel wire. The pickup date is hard to determine due to deteriorated sponge adherence, but the rear can be identified as "X85075" with the front being particularly tricky, suggested as "XXXX7X". The rear can be interpreted as from the batch completed in 1975. **Pot Dates**: The pots are dated "137754X", "1377533", and "1377536", indicating original specifications from 1975, free from any scratch noise. **Capacitor**: This is a blue ITW (Illinois Tool Works) 0.022μ polypropylene capacitor that began appearing on Jazz Basses around 1972. **Includes**: Pickup fence and bridge cover. The thumb rest is missing. The neck is mostly straight and shows no high spots, with ample adjustability in the truss rod. The frets show some wear from the original purchase. The instrument plays cleanly without issues, but if used regularly, refretting may be advisable due to the vintage nature of the bass, which I have left unchanged. **Recently**: The strings have been replaced with new Ernie Ball Super Slinky 45-100, and the frets polished with lemon oil for maintenance, making it ready to play comfortably. **Serial Number**: 680629 **Original Case**: It comes with the original black tolex hard case, known as the Tail Logo emblem from around 1969. Inside the case, the body cushioning has been in place since around 1973. There is some rust on the hardware, and the key is missing. However, given the minimal deterioration of the handle leather and all locks functioning correctly, the condition is good for a 70s hard case. **Storage Condition**: For the past ten years, it has been stored indoors with air conditioning and dehumidifiers, hung on a guitar hanger (no pets or smoking environment). **Accessories**: I have purchased new Fender Pure Vintage Parts for screws for the pickguard, pickups, bridge, and strap pins, totaling around 16,000 yen, which I can include as an "extra" if requested upon auction closing. **Shipping**: It will be meticulously packaged with recycled cardboard and cushioning materials; cost to be borne by the buyer, shipped by courier (EAZY) 200 size.
