This is an incredible J Bass in both looks and tone
With the aged body colour it looks closer to and original 1960’s bass
It is very close to a Custom Shop USA ’64 Journeyman in looks, feel, and sound
(but without the $6k + price tag!)
Overall, it has a great playability, with that classic JB tone, with lots of attack and growl
Includes a Fender Gig Case
