Hello guys.
I'm from Russia, and some guy here sells an American Deluxe Jazz Bass and I'm not really sure if it's a real Fender.
The serial number says that it's a 2000 deluxe but something about this logo etc. really troubles me.
Can you please advice me?

Probably a real Fender ,

Very well made Bass, fretboard , truss rod acces hole, pearl dot inlay . I don't think it is a fake.

I mean if it is a fake, it is a very well made AND luxuous fake = an expensive fake.

IMO it is a Fender

The real thing! My American Deluxe had the same logo. And every thing else on that bass looks correct.

I'm no expert, but it looks legit to me also.

Thank you guys. So it's okay that Fender and Jazz Bass logos don't have an (r) sign? Anyway I'm gonna hear it myself and I think I'll be able to hear the difference between Fender and other guitar.
