I happen to be the proud owner of one of the 5 string variations of the Fender Jazz Deluxe Edition basses.
This bass is a special limited edition and mine is in original condition

The 1996 Fender Jazz Bass Deluxe is a high-quality, American-made bass guitar from the John Suhr era of Fender. It features active electronics, giving it a dynamic and versatile tone. Some key characteristics include:
Features
- Body: Alder core with an ash cap (on some models).
- Neck: Maple with a rosewood fingerboard.
- Electronics: Designed by John Suhr, featuring active pickups for enhanced tonal control.
- Finish: Available in various colors, including Blueburst and Vintage Blondeburst.
- Bridge: String-through-body design for better sustain.
- 50th Anniversary Decal: Some models have a special 50th Anniversary marking.
One of the things that make this particular bass unique is it was built during Fender’s 50 Year Anniversary.

Right away you can see this 5 string bass is equipped with small tuning keys and still has the factory pickups and bridge.
The action on this bass is a bit high for my preference which makes it harder to play especially when it comes to songs that have slap bass technique. This bass is also harder for me to play because I have small hands, and this bass has a long scale neck.
