Description: 1966 Fender Jazz Bass. Classic Three Tone Sunburst with blocks and binding on the rosewood fretboard. Very Original. Includes OHSC. Newer SKB HSC also included. I have owned it for 17 years. I purchased it through Guitar Center's Vintage Sales. Their luthier opened it up (in front of me) checking the neck pocket and neck date stamp as well as all of the electronics. Zero issues. No mods. Originally owned by Dennis Yost, lead singer of The Classics IV (songs like Stormy, Spooky, etc.). They told me Dennis sold it to them to cover some medical expenses. Sadly, he passed away a year after I bought the bass. Fantastic natural patina to the original nitrocellulose lacquer. It is from being played across this country by a professional musician. That is why it looks better than fake patina applied at the Fender Custom Shop. This old man actually earned his scars. Amazing mellow sounds. Easy neck to play, even for a hack like me. One screw hole on the original tortoise shell pickguard is broken. I replaced it with a new one so it would not get worse. The original can be seen at the bottom of the open case picture along with the other pick-up cover. The OHSC needs new latches to be trustworthy. That is why I always used the SKB case, and it will be shipped in the SKB inside of the box. This piece of art is too nice to live in my closet. It should be owned, loved, played, and displayed by a real bass player. I have always been a better collector than player. By the way, I do know how to ship guitars properly so don't fret (see what I did there).
