Hi,
What is the difference in quality between the Fender American Deluxe Jazz Bass vs FSR American Deluxe Jazz Bass. I have looked at the specs pretty much side by side, but I am a layman. What is the difference?

Both basses had the same quality except the FSR sports a feature set currently unavailable on the regular production version.

I actually bought this Bass (FSR American Deluxe Jazz Bass ) last month & the difference's are subtle , here are the difference's between the standard Black American Deluxe Jazz Bass & the FSR American Deluxe Jazz Bass.... first the pick on the standard Black model is Black & the pick Guard on the FSR is a Tort shell pick guard & the battery cover on the back of the Bass is also Tort Shell, the the strap pins on the FRS are smoked in color as opposed to the chrome strap pins on the standard model,.... the fret board on the standard Black American Deluxe Jazz bass is maple with black shell block markers & black neck binding where the fretboard on the FSR is Rosewood with white pearl block markers & white binding ,... the case candy is the same, the Case I received with mine is the Fender black Hard shell case with the TSA latches & Red Rubber on the inside of the Handle,.. I'm sure this case is made by SKB but is different from the SKB hard shell Case I got with my 2011 American Deluxe 5 string Jazz Bass,.... one thing I found interesting was the production date of the FSR Jazz basses I saw in 3 long & McQuade Music stores in my area,... it seems these basses were made in April/ May of 2013,... I managed to get one that was still in a box,...... the production date on mine is May 2013,.... it plays great right out of the box all I had to do is tune it up,... it's a very striking bass, the photos don't do it justice..... I finally have Flickr account & will be posting photos.
