1966 Fender Jazz Bass – Vintage Original

I am offering for sale a 1966 Fender Jazz Bass in excellent condition.

This bass is 100% original in all components and electronics, with the only exception being a professional refinish carried out decades ago in a beautiful, vintage-correct sunburst. The finish has aged gracefully and looks absolutely stunning in person, giving the instrument a classic and very authentic appearance.

The neck is straight, very comfortable, and stable, and the truss rod works perfectly. The Lollipop tuners, block inlays and binding make Fender basses from this era unique. The bass plays wonderfully (very low action!) across the entire fretboard and delivers the unmistakable mid-60s Fender Jazz Bass tone: warm, articulate, and full of character.

Details:

• Year: 1966
• Model: Fender Jazz Bass
• Weight: 4.1 kg
• Neck: Straight, truss rod fully functional
• Frets: great working condition
• Tuners: Lollipop
• Electronics & hardware: All original
• Finish: Refinished sunburst (done decades ago)
• Includes: Original covers and a Fender case from the European era

This is a player-grade vintage Jazz Bass with incredible vibe, tone, and history. The refin makes it more accessible than a fully original example, while retaining everything that truly matters: sound, feel, and authenticity.

Open for a trade for an Alleva Coppolo 5, adjusting differences if needed.

Happy to answer any questions or provide additional photos upon request. Serious inquiries only, please.
