The 62 Reissue Jazz does not give you the most for your money

Pros Classic looks, familiar feel, good tone
Cons Non-reinforced neck, poor quality control for this price range
Recommended it? No

Funny thing about Fenders these days--when they're good, they're great; when they're bad, they're really bad. Mine suffered from some severe construction flaws.

Fender's 62 Jazz Bass Reissue has been one of their best-selling models since the early 80s. There's something about the look... Read full review »

Cons Truss rod might die. Poor assembly quality.

I've bought this thing used from my friend, who bought it from some other guy a couple of years ago. The condition of the instrument was nearly mint which was surprising - the bass was my friend's main instrument for a couple of years. The bass dates back to 1996 (serial number V077741), and...

Pros An authentic, great-looking, great-sounding and very playable reissue bass
Cons None that I can think of
Recommended it? Yes

Fender's USA-built '62 Jazz is a misnomer-the concentric tone/volume controls disappeared in 1961. However, this bass
