1975 Fernandes Japan "Burny Bass" FJB-50 Jazz Bass (Vintage White)

1975 Fernandes Japan "Burny Bass" FJB-50 Jazz Bass (Vintage White)Japanese made by Fernandes in 1975, this FJB 50 came to us from a professional player who has it loaded with flatwounds and a foam mute mounted on the bridge cover (easily removable) to give it a beautifully vintage and rounded bass tone. Gloss vintage white finish on the body with a maple neck fingerboard wearing black block inlays and binding (7. 25" radius, 38mm nut width), it weighs 4. 6kg's. Appears all original including both pickup and bridge

Made by the Fujigen factory in early 1983

There's a small area of damage on the side as pictured but it seems to be solid as it sits without any movement

Click & Collect and local pickup available soon from our shop at 14/33 College Street

Upgraded by the previous owner with a pair of Bare Knuckle Aftermath/Juggernaut pickups along with a Hipshot bridge and Gotoh locking tuners

The RG350QM was made in Indonesia and sold only in Japan

and a best-of-both-worlds design

Pots were flushed and work well

making it a perfect workhorse guitar

Lightly flamed maple top and back with a slim 60's three-piece maple neck and 22 fret rosewood fingerboard (44mm nut width

The frets are heavily pitted and have plenty of wear

it appears to be close to all original except for a set of Fender slightly ill-fitting saddles installed by the previous owner (although they still function as they should)

looks to be all original except for the preamp/wiring
