Nice! And the price is fair

That's not a very authentic looking 75 reissue.

There's no gap in the neck pocket and the strings aren't misaligned.

And I'll bet it doesn't weigh more than 11 pounds.

...most of all it does not have the pickups in the 70's position

That's what I thought too!
What could be the reason behind that?

I've always wondered the same thing. I own one, and although it doesn't bother me (I mostly bought it for the classy looks and because I wanted a Jazz) it does seem strange.
