This is a Prime Item — available for local pickup only for the first few weeks, then opened up for nationwide shipping once our loyal local customers have had their chance.

This 1974 Fender Jazz Bass in Sunburst has the kind of vibe you just can’t fake. It’s been around the block, played real stages, and has the scars to prove it. The neck feels broken-in in all the right ways, and the bass has that warm, articulate growl Jazz players chase. It’s sold AS-IS, but it plays well and sounds great — a killer piece for someone who knows their way around a vintage Fender.

Key Features:

  • Sunburst finish with decades of honest wear that looks the part

  • Original neck pickup paired with a non-original bridge pickup that’s impressively close in tone — blends beautifully

  • Frets have honest wear, with about 50% life remaining

  • Truss rod is maxed out, so no further tightening is available

  • Headstock has a developing twist, not affecting playability now but could add stress at the nut over time

  • Original hard shell case (OHSC) included — worn but solid

  • Pot codes date to 1974, confirming the era despite an ambiguous serial number

  • Condition: Vintage, sold AS-IS. A few dings, plenty of character, and all the mojo you’d expect from a nearly 50-year-old Jazz Bass. Plays well, sounds fantastic, but comes with the known issues above.
