Fender Custom Shop 1961 Jazz Bass Heavy Relic
In 1961, just one year after its debut, the Jazz Bass® adopted a new control configuration with a volume knob and master tone knob for each pickup, a classic control arrangement that continues to this day.

It also features a 4-ply brown shell pickguard, vintage-style bass bridge, threaded steel saddles, vintage-style tuning machines, bone nut, disc string tree, and more.
