※ An offer to purchase was made on 8/7 for 240,000 yen, but the buyer's circumstances changed, and the purchase was canceled, so this item is relisted. Fender Deluxe Jazz Bass V, 5-string, 5-in-line tuners This is a Fender Deluxe Jazz Bass (active) 5-string bass with 5-in-line tuners, which has become increasingly popular in recent years. Accessories: Hard case The previous owner imported it privately from the US via Reverb. After purchasing it, I spent tens of thousands of yen on repairs and maintenance, including the neck and loose screws. I am listing it for a limited time because I don't have many opportunities to use it. Based on the serial number, it is believed to be made in the Ensenada, Mexico factory in 1999. It is said that John Suhr, who was a master builder, was involved in product development in the 90s Fender Mexico, and it is highly regarded for its quality, which rivals that of USA-made instruments. In fact, this instrument is also of very high quality. Apart from a dent on the headstock tip and some rust on the screws and bridge, there are almost no other scratches, and it can be considered a beautiful item considering its age. The frets also have plenty of life left. The body is probably alder (full size, not a dinky shape). The fingerboard is a smooth, tight-grained pau ferro. The pickups are the type with large pole pieces that were only installed for a short period during this era. These are highly valued even as individual pickups, and the sound has the power and brilliance typical of American Deluxe models. There are no issues with the controls, such as crackling or malfunctions. With vintage '99 American Deluxe models soaring above 500,000 yen, I believe this is a rare and usable Fender Deluxe 5-string bass. It will be shipped in the original hard case and packed in a musical instrument cardboard box. #fender #Americandeluxe #AmericanDeluxe #アメリカンデラックス
