Rebellious in looks and thundering in sound, the Limited Edition Custom Jazz Bass Heavy Relic has enough swag to make you pull out the sunglasses and leather jacket. There's no messing around with this low-end behemoth, which features a two-piece ash body with a Heavy Relic lacquer finish; a tinted quarter-sawn maple neck with a '60 Jazz Bass "U" profile; and a 9.5" radius fingerboard with 20 medium jumbo (6150) frets, white nitro binding and mother-of-pearl block inlays. Hand-wound vintage Jazz Bass pickups are connected to knurled chrome master volume and tone control knobs on the chrome control plate for a classically seductive look.
Other features include a three-ply black pickguard, vintage-style bass bridge with four threaded saddles, vintage-style '66 "lollipop" tuners, a walnut top nut and a third strap button on the back of the headstock for old-school upright-style playing. Includes deluxe hardshell case, strap and certificate of authenticity.
