2025 Fender Japan Deluxe Jazz Bass V Kazuki Arai Edition Black

We are absolutely blown away with this model, it sounds unreal! Clear tight Jazz Bass tones with a strong low B. This is the Fender Deluxe Jazz Bass V Kazuki Arai Edition in gloss black. This model is only available to residents of Japan and is limited. This is a rare opportunity to get one outside of Japan. This bass is in as new, unplayed condition with the plastic sill on the pickups. We have given the the bass a full check over, the trussrod and electronics all work perfectly. Included is the original gigbag.

What Fender say about this bass –

‘The “Deluxe Jazz Bass® V Kazuki Arai Edition,” which was produced in limited quantities in 2021 as a signature model of Kazuki Arai, bassist for King Gnu and millennium parade, has now been made into a more accessible model and added to the regular product lineup.

The guitar features an original neck shape and Dinky-shaped body that the artist was particularly particular about, and the electric section is equipped with an Ultra Noiseless™ Vintage Jazz Bass® pickup and the latest preamp, inheriting the playability and sound quality of the previous model.

In addition, a new feature not available in the previous model is the inclusion of a thin pickguard of approximately 1.0 mm sandwiched under the gold anodized pickguard of approximately 1.2 mm, which gives the same playing feel as a 3-ply pickguard while maintaining the same appearance.’
