Signature Jazz body grey metallic,alder, complete

Please read the entire description, for all questions you might have.I tried hard to cover everything.Please feel free to contact me with any other questions you might have.

This is the 91/92 body style that put them out of business, because it is a true fender copy even down to the neckpocket dimensions, which are normally 3/4 on all earlier Signature models.

You are bidding on a Signature Jazz Bass style Body . It is in  mint condition.there are no dings or scratches anywhere . The wood is solid alder and not plywood like the cheap oriental imports (Alder is one of the premier soundwoods that is extensively used by the higher end guitar makers like Sadowsky and Fender because of its soundqualities , it sounds warmer than the very crisp swamp ash), and the neck holes are for a standard 4 hole neck plate .I will include the plate and screws. The neckpocket has microtilt adjustment and the bridge is a string through body or regular set up. Quite versatile. The beautiful extremely hard and unusual  grey Metallic satin sheen Polyurethane / Polyester is as described above in mint condition and has no issues.The metallic in this paint is so fine that it is barely noticeable, only from up close and when the sun hits it., unlike some crude metallics that use bigger metallic particles.The color itself is realy classy looking especially when paired up with one of the block inlay necks.If you are into punk or grunge this is NOT for you.But who knows maybe it is.This is the 12 th  body like that I found in 2 years so I have to assume that these ar quite rare in my assortment .The pickguard is a  3 ply  brown  tortoise with the foil still  on it,there is very little natural shrinkage and it still fits fine. .It is also available in different pickguards, please inquier .The pickups are standard Signature Axis JB pickups ,handwound ,epoxy potted and foambacked, quite punchy,and loud .The pickups are the same size, not staggered like the Fenders or the earlier Axis.. There are some stampings in the neckpocket,which state JB GG 62 / 4  4B .The weight is 7lb 6oz. I don't know the exact date of manufacture because I don't have the legend to read the numbers by, but the company was founded in 87-88 and defunct in 92 .There is a inspection sticker in the control cavity that reads JUL 92 .;Signature was a now defunct high end guitar manufacturer out of Cranston RI. The list on some models was 1300$ in the early 90's when they went out of business because of lawsuit threats from fender.Never heard of Signature?
