This 2011 Fender American Special Jazz Bass delivers timeless style, smooth playability, and the legendary Fender tone—all made right in the USA. It shows some signs of use, including a few dings, dents, and scratches on the body, but there's no fret wear, and everything functions as it should. It plays great, sounds fantastic, and comes complete with a hardshell case for safe transport and storage.
The American Special Series offers premium features at a more accessible price, making this a great option for working musicians, hobbyists, or collectors alike.
