  This is a 2004 stock mexican jazz w/Bill Lawrence Noisless pickup upgrade and Rotosound flats. I also own 2 american precision basses and a jap jazz and a Jaguar bass.My mexican jazz is my second choice after my 78 p bass when playing. I have played the mexican on different amps and i am happy with the sound. i have owned 2 american jazz basses a 73 and an 82. I have no problem with the way the mexican sounds and would recommend a pickup upgrade and action tweak to anyone thinking of buying a mexican.paid 200 in pawn shop + 200 upgrade, i am not complaining at all.

  Robust sound. Fretboard is narrow enough for small hands. Fender Jazz Bass is Very easy to play different styles (slap, pop, even hammer on/off).

  Played bass for 35 years. Owned many. Played many.
  
  The Made-In-Mexico Jazz Bass is as good or better as any Jazz Bass that came from Fender in the 1970's. Probably only the pickups will need to be changed, but not critical.
  
  I bought mine for $225 new and am quite happy. It pays to shop around and check out a few. Some will need to be setup, others are good to go right off the rack.
  
  This is the best bass for me and was a great value. This one is a gem.

  The Fender Jazz Bass is a good playing and sounding bass, if you bring the neck down it is an easy playing bass.

  Good sound, good tone and easy to playing retro music. Good for guy who playing in a club. Only bad point is there isn't a master volume.

  Only my second bass, but it was wonderful to get a Fender. Some purists may criticise it for not being a US Fender, but the Mexican Jazz Bass is wonderful, capable of a great range and wonderful without tinkering with it. If you want to get a better sound out of it, getting a top of the range pedal rack will give a lot more edge than playing around with the pick ups. The guitar looks and feels great, and in the ten years I've owned it I never regretted picking it out.

  The sound of the Fender Jazz Bass Mexican is as great as the american one. But it doesn't mean the same to have the mexican edition than the american edition. :)

  The finish on my Fender Jazz Bass is excellent, and it stays in tune well. However, the pick up control knobs seem a little "loose". Classic jazz bass with versatility of tone, from funky deep soul bass lines to poppy twang with the famous "click".

  If you insist upon not saving your money and getting an American Jazz bass, then you're not thinking straight. This is because the Highway 1 lineup is just slightly more money, which makes these basses redundant. I had paid more than $600 when I got it and now I have to lay down another $180 for half-decent pickups!! As a recording engineer told me recently "Jesus Miles, go buy a real bass!".

  My Fender Jazz Bass Mexican guitar was a Saturday afternoon impulse buy, to indulge my mid-life crisis (well, it's cheaper than a Porsche). I haven't owned a Fender for over twenty years, and that was a very battered Tele Bass, of which I still have fond memories. Since then it's been a real mixture of Ibanez, Yamaha BB and an excellent 60s Epiphone Rivoli - the only one I've hung on to.
  
  To be honest, I've found a lot of the Mexican Fenders I've tried pretty rough, probably down to some mus ...

  I've been playing bass since 1993 and for last seven years I've been playing on stage 4 to 6 nights a week. I've played Washburn, Maison, Yamaha and Cort basses, but after buying my Fender, I felt like I never played a bass before. Although I first tried it without plugging in, it felt absolutely great!!! the fingerboard is like it's made of silk. after plugging it, the sound was wonderful. I am playing it on a Laney amplifier and the sound is perfect.
  All the basses I've played before were 24 ...

  I wanted a bass to use in the studio, but really wanted the USA model - I couldn't afford it and managed to pick the Mex Jazz (4-String) for under £400 including gig bag from a small shop in Bury that even price matched a web price - brilliant - it's definitely worth shopping around and haggling. It's great to play and definitely has the Jazz sound - For novices and giggers, this is a great stepping stone up to your first 'proper' bass or as a second / back up.
  
  Once you settle on a fin ...

  The Fender Jazz Bass guitar has a good sound to it, as well as an affordable price. It plays nicely as well.

  The Fender Jazz Bass is an awesome bass guitar!
  
  I went into my local music shop with every intention of picking up a Fender Precision bass, and walked out with the Mexican-made Jazz Bass.
  
  This guitar has a really solid sound, and the fretboard is extremely easy to access, even for someone like myself with small hands. I've been playing bass for almost twenty years and NEVER felt the need to buy a new bass (I had still been playing an old Ibanez Roadstar bass, that is absolutely KILLER), u ...

  Fender Jazz Bass (Mexican) - Buying this guitar was the result of a trip into my local music superstore to buy a bass for my Gothic daughter who was looking for a black (of course) five string bass. Whilst she was trying her new toy I spotted a blue Jazz Bass on display and had to try it. It was instant love so easy to play, great range of tones available from the two pickups and of excellent build quality. Its only downfall being the slight hum from the pickups when the tone control is set to f ...
