We are proud to offer for sale an exceptional example of a 1965 Pre CBS custom colour Fender Jazzmaster, retaining a high degree of originality across all components! This example is finished in the timeless custom colour candy apple red with the matching headstock. Pre CBS custom colour Fender’s are now incredibly rare to find, especially with original parts and finish and no overspray, and prices for these examples have been skyrocketing over the last 10 years.

The maple neck is in great shape, and has been nicely worn in over the 61 years of playwear resulting in the visible discoloration to the finish on the back of the neck. It does feel great though; smooth, silky and incredibly easy to play. The frets have been replaced which is very common on guitars of this age and results in a player's dream as well as a great piece for collectors. The neck grip is good and has the classic mid 60s ‘C’ profile (Fender’s B neck with nut width 1 5/8”).  Neck measurements are 21.0mm at the first fret and 25.2mm at the 12th fret.


The guitar also comes with the original hard case and tremolo arm included which makes it stand out from other examples which have replaced cases. This guitar is a great player and also a great investment piece as prices for vintage guitars of this era have skyrocketed in recent years. Please consider this opportunity!
