Fender '62 Reissue Jazz Bass, made in Japan 2007-09, vintage white. The white/tort combo on a Jazz Bass always looks awesome, and this is no exception. The highly figured, streaky maple board adds some intrigue; this is a sleek and classy bass with a lot to offer. The USA pickups offer a touch more clarity and brightness over the standard MIJ models; this has a heap of definition and bark. The slim neck is cooperative and favours quick and precise playing, and combined with the lightweight body, this plays very easily. If you like them clean, classy and classic, this one will surely float your boat.
