Navigator N-JB Bass (Early Model)

Navigator N-JB (Early Model)

This is a Navigator (ESP) Jazz Bass model that I purchased used over 20 years ago.
While the exact model number and manufacturing year could not be determined from the serial number, it is believed to be an early Navigator model that utilized high-quality materials generously.
The weight is approximately 4.4kg.

The following two points may be custom orders, so I will list them just in case:
* The tuning pegs have a reverse rotation compared to the standard operation.
* The set screws on the bridge are about 3-5mm longer (I couldn't find any that fit in either metric or inch sizes).

The neck has a slight forward bow when measured with a tapping method. The truss rod can be turned about 120 degrees to the right and over one full rotation to the left.
The frets are reduced in the lower positions, with about 70% remaining (there is no buzzing, of course).
The volume and tone controls, and the phone jack are likely in their original condition with almost no crackling. (My memory is not clear, but the phone jack may have been replaced; please check the photos.)
Three screws holding the pickguard were rusted, so they were replaced with Fender screws that are about 2mm longer. The included locking strap pins were malfunctioning, so they were replaced with GOTOH EP-B3C.
Regarding the wood used, the neck is likely hard maple, but the body wood could not be identified, so please judge from the photos.

There are paint chips in three places (photos 5, 14), but I believe it is in beautiful condition for its age, as I have carefully maintained it by wiping it down after each use.
It will be wrapped in bubble wrap, placed in an ESP genuine soft case, and packed with cushioning material and a cardboard box for basses.
Please feel free to comment if you have any questions or would like to see more photos.

I would be happy if it is used with care.
Thank you.
