1984 Cimar by Ibanez 2220 J Jazz Cosmic Blue Electric Bass Made in Japan

This 1984 Cimar 2220 bass in Cosmic Blue has plenty of vintage Japanese mojo and a versatile sound that’s right at home playing classic rock, funk, soul, and blues. According to the original Cimar literature, this model features a laminated mahogany body, a maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard, and a full 34-inch scale. Its P/J pickup layout, dual volume controls, and master tone let you blend warm, punchy lows with crisp bridge-pickup definition. Please note that the neck pickup has been replaced. Chrome hardware, four-in-line tuners, and an adjustable four-saddle bridge complete its classic look. The neck is straight and the truss rod turns in both directions, and it plays great up and down the neck. There are light surface scuffs and minor play wear consistent with its age, but that deep blue gloss finish still has plenty of charm. If you’ve been looking for a vintage Japanese bass with character and a wide range of usable tones, you’ll be glad to have this one in your hands. Snag it before someone else does!

The solid double-cutaway body is finished in deep dark blue gloss, accented by a smooth bolt-on neck and a rich rosewood fretboard with classic dot inlays. Hardware includes open-gear tuning machines, a four-saddle adjustable bridge, and a factory-style tug bar above the middle pickup. It shows light surface scuffs and minor play wear appropriate for a well-kept 1980s Japanese instrument.
