Serial number MZ7121657. Manufactured August 2008 in Mexico. I am the original owner. The bass and its G&G hardshell case are in excellent condition. This hybrid model offers a versatile combination of Precision Bass and Jazz Bass design. It has the look of a Precision with a slim Jazz Bass neck, special Jazz Bass bridge pickup, Precision middle pickup, active electronics, and more. The Blizzard Pearl finish has only two imperfections, one on either side of the neck pocket (see last two photos). These are hairline cracks in the finish, not in the wood, and they were present when I bought the bass. The strap buttons are Schaller S-Locks, and a comfortable neoprene guitar strap is included. The strings currently on the bass are flatwounds.
