Fender American Original '60s Jazzmaster

Originally designed to appeal to jazz guitarists with elegant appointments and sophisticated controls, the Jazzmaster found its way into the hands of musical rebels. From surf to punk and indie rock, its flexible sound heralded the call of change and shaped the voice of rebellion. The American Original ‘60s Jazzmaster faithfully recreates the voice and style of this classic guitar, supplementing them with smooth, modern playability.

FEATURES

• Alder body with lacquer finish
• Two Pure Vintage ‘65 single-coil Jazzmaster pickups
• “’60s C”-shaped neck profile; 9.5”-radius round-lam rosewood fingerboard
• Floating tremolo bridge with lock button and push-in arm; vintage-style hardware
• Includes vintage-style hardshell case

LACQUER FINISH

The nitrocellulose lacquer finish not only lets the body breathe with its true tonal character, it also ages in a distinctively personal way.

PURE VINTAGE ‘65 PICKUPS

American Original instruments feature specially voiced pickups crafted to reproduce authentic Fender sound.

THICK “’60S C” NECK SHAPE

The thick "’60s C"-shaped neck profile is sculpted for a vintage-style playing feel. It’s remarkably comfortable and ideal for any playing style.

VINTAGE-ACCURATE BODY AND NECK RADII

Original-era fans can rest assured every curve and line of the body and neck are accurate to the historic originals.

VINTAGE-CORRECT HARDWARE

From the bridge to the string tree and tuning machines, every piece of hardware is just like the original.

FINGERBOARD & FRETS

This 9.5”-radius fingerboard is slightly flatter than a vintage-style 7.25” radius, providing a comfortable fret-hand feel. Vintage-tall frets make it easier to bend notes without fretting out.
