Fender / 1969 Jazz Bass / 1969 / Bass

Good condition, 6,5/10, weight 4099g, lots of belt buckle wear, patches with no finish on the sides of the body and wear on top of the headstock, worn frets, rosewood fingerboard with binding and block inlays, all 3 pots are dated 42nd week of 1966, 2 grey bottom pickups (the neck pu has no stamp but the bridge pu is stamped 1269), neck stamp 7JUN69A, skinny A-neck (A-1 1/2 in. B- 1 5/8 in. C- 1 3/4 in.), the only modification is that the the thumbrest has been moved to the upper side of the strings, otherwise all original parts, including both covers and the original Swedish made Jarna case (with all 3 claps replaced and the handle replaced) supplied by Hagstrom in Scandinavia for all new Fenders which were imported without cases, more info: These CBS-era Jazz basses can be had for quite the bargain compared to basses made just a few years earlier, but are still quite valuable and collectable -- particularly those with factory custom color finishes. By the middle of 1965, fretboard binding was added to the neck for a classier look, followed by big, bold block inlays in 1966. This bass belonged to the bass player in local heroes prog rock back Green Horns in Mora, Sweden in the late 1960 s who bought it new, includes 2 sets of Gibson Mona-Steel Strings and an old strap plus a bass course from 1963 with some hand painted graphics from the bass player himself, very cool!
