The original finish (presumably black from the pickguard colour and the neck pocket) was stripped by Birimingham based luthier Bob Barry, who also slightly refined the edges of the bass as the previous owner wanted it to feel more like a 60's fender with softer edges compared to the 70s body. The electronics have been replaced with Active MEC pickups, but no routing was done to the body to accommodate the 9V battery. The frets are original and show approximately 70% of life remaining and the electronics function as expected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1974 Fender Jazz Bass In Natural - Modified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon Original Hard Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Fat Bottom Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Fender","offer_id":55334996574593,"sku":null,"price":1999.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/6283\/7691\/files\/Untitleddesign-2026-02-09T163640.040.jpg?v=1770804832","url":"https:\/\/fatbottomguitars.co.uk\/products\/1973-fender-jazz-bass-in-natural-modified","provider":"Fat Bottom Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
