This example pairs a gloss polyester 3-Tone Sunburst finish over an alder body with a 3-ply tortoiseshell pickguard, a warm, traditional look on a bass built for serious low-end work. At 7.92 lbs., it balances well on a strap for a full night of gigging, and the American Deluxe badge marks it as one of the more feature-rich Jazz Basses Fender built in the late '90s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe bolt-on maple neck is carved to Fender's Modern \"C\" profile (.820\" at the 1st fret, .945\" at the 12th), a comfortable, filling shape for players moving between fingerstyle runs and slap technique, finished in satin urethane for a fast, non-sticky feel. A rosewood fretboard with pearl dot inlays carries a 9.5\" radius, 20 frets, a full 34\" scale length, and a 1.5\" synthetic bone nut — the classic Jazz Bass recipe that keeps the neck slim through the lower positions while still delivering plenty of string tension and low-end punch. Fender's HiMass bridge adds mass and sustain over the standard Jazz Bass bridge, while open-gear tuners in nickel\/chrome give a vintage-correct look with dependable tuning stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eElectronics are where this American Deluxe pulls ahead of a standard Jazz Bass: a pair of Fender active single-coil Jazz Bass pickups run through a master volume, pan control, and an active 3-band EQ (bass, mid, treble), giving you real tone-shaping power instead of just volume and blend. Dial in scooped, percussive slap tones, a fat and rounded fingerstyle thump, or a bright, cutting pick attack, all sculpted on the fly rather than fixed at the amp. Whether you're a session player who needs one bass to cover funk, rock, and R\u0026amp;B in the same set, a working gigger who wants active tone control on tap, or a collector tracking down early American Deluxe examples, this Jazz Bass delivers. Condition is very good for a 1998 instrument, showing some scratches and swirls in the clearcoat, light wear on the pickguard, and light pitting and cloudiness on the hardware, most noticeable on the bridge. (Serial #DN805125) It ships in its original Fender molded hardshell case.
