It was designed as a budget-friendly, \"student-model\" alternative to the Mustang Bass. At its launch, it was Fender's lowest-priced bass, costing roughly $100 less than the Mustang. It was often sold as a set with the 12W Fender Musicmaster bass amplifier.  The Musicmaster was largely assembled using surplus Mustang parts, though it lacked the Mustang’s \"string-through-body\" design and split-coil pickup. To keep costs low, Fender used a six-pole Stratocaster guitar pickup hidden under a solid plastic cover instead of a dedicated four-pole bass pickup, although this particular model was later equipped with a Jazz pickup. This bass is all original except for a body refin and the replaced pickup.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eALL EU PURCHASES ARE DELIVERED WITH TAXES AND DUTIES PAID\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAll purchases include EU taxes\/duties paid, i.e., nothing further is due on receipt of goods to any EU state.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHY BUY FROM US\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWe are one of the world's leading specialists in used and vintage gear with over 30 years of experience.
