Fender '66 Reissue Jazzmaster
A stunning offset from Fender Japan. The Jazzmaster sat at the top of Fenders catalog upon its release in 1959, marketed towards the Jazz musicians of the time. Unfortunately the success of the more affordable Telecaster and Stratocaster hindered the impact the Jazzmaster (and Jaguar) had on the market.
That all changed in the 90's with the grunge and alternative rock movements stormed onto the scene! With players such as J Mascis, Thurston Moore and Kevin Shields choosing this offset as their weapon of choice!
Our '66 reissue is a vintage specc'd Jazzmaster with all the goodness and class of the originals!
Spec:
- Alder body
- Maple neck with Rosewood Fingerboard
- 21 frets
- 2x Fender Jazzmaster single coil pickups
- 3-way pickup selector
- 1x Master Volume Control
- 1x Master Tone Control
- Rhythm circuit with master volume and tone roller controls
- Vintage Jazzmaster floating bridge and tremolo system

Our Jazzmaster is in great shape, some oxidisation to the metal parts but all good patina! Freshly set up and playing great!
