Here at RGG we are really pleased to have for sale this lovely, rare 1982 Squier JV series, 57 reissue Precision bass. (Export model) The neck is dated May 12th 1982, making this only a few months into the production of these Japanese Fender Squiers.
This bass has the large fender logo with the smaller squire logo at the end of the headstock. 2 tone Sunburst finish with a Maple neck and fingerboard. All original other than the case*
These export series JV basses had more in keeping with the original vintage basses than the Japanese domestic series – USA made pickups with cloth wires and vintage style reverse tuners. They are made in the renown FujiGen Gakki factory & are known for their masterful craftsmanship & are now very sought after.
This bass is very clean with only one laquer flake on the bottom rear edge (See Pics) & a very minor amount of play-marks & buckle rash. The neck is straight and clean as is the headstock. The frets are in great shape with very little wear. All electronics and hardware are in great working order. She has a big round and warm sound with a hint of extra top end due to the Maple board in keeping with the vintage vibe.
* Comes with a lovely cream 1970’s Fender case, prev owned by Yolanda Charles (It has one centre latch missing, but closes perfectly)
*If your budget doesn’t stretch to a pre CBS Fender then these Japanese made reissues are an excellent alternative!*
