I just bought a '75 RI MIJ Jazz Bass from ebay, and its serial No.is V021357.
The seller told me that it was Fender 50th Anniversary
bass.I have tried to check the serial number or to search some information(like the option pickup, body or neck material) about this one. But all the information is always fewer.
So could I ask you to check if this one is 50th Anniversary
bass from its serial number and get some information about the bass?

Thanks a lot!

according to the fender website, it can be from any time between 1982 to 2005, so good luck finding out what year its from :p

If your bass is a 50th anniversary then it will have a gold oval emblem behind the headstock. Fender 's 50th was in 1996.

I own a MIJ 50's Stratocaster and it has the same emblem.

I had one of these '96 MIJ 75RI, yes the 50th anniv means it's from 1996, but was nothing different than any other year MIJ 75RI.

The body was made from ash, and had maple necks with either a maple fretboard or rosewood fretboard. The pickups were standrad issue japan pickups of that time.
