{"product_id":"1973-fender-jazz-bass-natural-1","title":"1973 Fender Jazz Bass, Natural","description":"\u003cp\u003e1973 Fender Jazz Bass with a natural finish over an Ash body. It's in exceptionally good condition. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMost natural finishes from this period are found with maple boards, which makes this one a bit more distinctive. \u003c\/span\u003eThe ash body, natural finish, rosewood fingerboard combination is a less commonly seen. It's missing the metal pickup and bridge covers but is otherwise all-original and complete, including the case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an excellent bass, with a nice slim neck. It has tons of tone, and the growl is fantastic. With both pickups and tone up full, this bass really sings with tons of top end, the mids punch through, and the bottom end holds it all together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body finish is near-mint, with the only visible wear being light surface scuffing. The headstock has a few very small dings, but is clean overall. The neck is very clean, and the binding is all intact. The frets are in excellent condition, and there's plenty of life left in them. The truss rod works as it should, and the neck is straight. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFully set up in our workshop with a set of (unknown brand) round wound strings and medium\/low action, giving great playability. All 3 pots date to mid-late '73. Both pickups date to 1973 and have original winds.  \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe neck is dated 40th week of '72. \u003c\/span\u003eSerial: 411568.
