Hi

I think it's the American Special Jazz - retails $999 unless they've raised the price. No case :(

Actual Retail Price for the American Special is $1,279.99. The street price for the Fender American Special Jazz is right at $1,000 in the USA, making it the lowball USA Jazz Bass.

I'd also suggest considering a used but excellent condition American Standard or American Deluxe Jazz which would be about the same price or even less than a brand new Special. It is astonishing how many used ones are around and it is a buyer's market right now. Plus these will probably come with a case!
