Up for sale, here’s a rare to find nowadays and extremely lightweight for a Jazz Bas (8.6 Lbs) 2015 Fender American Deluxe Jazz Bass in Natural color in Excellent (near mint) condition.

Made in Corona, CA USA in 2015. With its original Hard molded case and all tags.

It’s incredibly lightweight, which is VERY RARE for ANY Fender Jazz Bass. Moreover this is incredible if you consider it’s an Ash body with aHi-Mass bridge and Active electronics (running 2 9V batteries). The best part is the bass is super well balanced. Inb our experience, I think the American Deluxe Series instruments made between 2013 – 2015 with Ash bodies are definitely special.

First owner, barely used. 100% Stock, with an original and stunning Natural finish with a 3-ply Black pickguard . It has a classic ’70s era Ash body with Hi-Mass bridge and strings through body. The electronics consists of a Jazz Bass Set of 3rd generation Noiseless pickups and a 18V preamp with 3-Band EQ that gives you a variety of tasteful Jazz Bass tones. Plus, and Active/Passive switch with Passive Tone control so you can bypass the preamp and go all the way passive as a traditional Jazz Bass, which makes it very useful for recording purposes.

It has a slim “C” Profile with 1.5″ nut width, classic Jazz Bass incredible playability with a sculpted neck heel for easy access to the higher frets. A beautiful piece of Maple and Maple fingerboard with Black binding and pearloid block inlays. Even though the front headstock have a gloss lacquer finish, the back of the neck has a very thin layer of satin finish which makes it very smooth to play. The neck is perfectly straight (truss rod at the butt of the neck works flawlessly as it should) and without any fret issues, currently set low very comfy with a fresh set of D’addario NYXL .045″ – .100″ and it really plays incredibly well.

These American Deluxe Series were for decades exactly what nowadays “American Elite” and recently renamed “American Ultra”. With very minimal differences these all have the same price point on the Fender product line above the American Standards/Professionals, well known for being super solid and reliable workhorse for pros, getting the traditional Jazz Bass tone with some really cool and premium features such as the vintage look and the active/passive electronics.’

Cosmetically, the bass is in excellent condition and beside just some miminum light surface level pick player on the pickguard (barely noticeable) there is almost no blemishes at all and the bass is in great shape overall and it has been used and played with the utmost care. It comes with its original Fender molded case that is in very good condition without any cracks.

The instrument ships out professionally packed and insured to continental US and some international destinations as well.
