This model was purchased new in 1997. It is in excellent condition. Sunburst finish looks great. It has been played minimally as it has been a backup. This is a Mexican-made Standard 4-string Jazz Bass, but the quality is as good as a lot of the USA-made Fenders that I've tried. No modifications have been done; it is bone stock. A Fender hardshell case is included and it is in excellent shape as well. Thought I'd give my fellow Ags first chance at it before I stick it on eBay. This type of guitar goes for ~$475 on Musicians Friend without the case (which average another $100). Post if you're interested and I'll be back. I'm in the B/CS area.
