Fender is the undisputed number one brand for electric guitars and basses.
It is beloved by countless top artists, including Thurston Moore, Thom Yorke, and Kenta Kataoka.
The Jazzmaster was released by Fender in 1958 as a premium model.
Initially introduced as a dedicated jazz instrument, its signature fat sound and cool looks endeared it to many artists, enriching the underground music scene.
Today, it remains a popular model used by numerous Japanese rock artists.
This model is the Jazzmaster from the American Vintage II series, the pinnacle of Fender's regular line.
It is modeled after a 1966 Jazzmaster.
The body is crafted from alder.
It features a Lake Placid Blue finish using nitrocellulose lacquer.
Its gorgeous looks, worthy of a top-tier model, are captivating, including a matching-color large headstock, block inlays, and fingerboard binding.
The neck is maple, and the fingerboard is rosewood.
The neck shape is the 1966 “C” shape, with Vintage Tall frets and a 7.25" fingerboard radius, delivering vintage-feel playability.
It features Pure Vintage '66 Single-Coil Jazzmaster pickups.
Sound-wise, it boasts the characteristic Jazzmaster tone, blending warmth with a crisp bite.
The Jazzmaster stands as one of Fender's flagship models, following the Stratocaster and Telecaster.
