Summary: This 1969 Fender Jazzmaster has some of the appointments that make the late 60’s model so desirable- a bound neck, large headstock and block pearl inlays, and a modern touch, a Mastery bridge. It’s wonderfully aged, and ready for another five decades of play. 

Body: Alder body in Sunburst finish.

Neck: Maple with a bound Rosewood fingerboard, 25.5” scale length, 1.65” nut width, 21 frets,  pearl block inlays.

Pickups/Hardware: Original pickups, “F”  parallelogram tuning keys, replacement Mastery bridge, 

Cosmetics: This guitar is in good shape. It has surface scratches and small indentations on the body, along with some paint loss and crazing. The back of the neck has honest wear, some checking on the binding, and the frets show wear consistent with a guitar this age. The back has buckle rash. Overall, this guitar plays very well and sounds fantastic.

Playability: Our in-house guitar tech has inspected, setup, and restrung this instrument with a new set of strings. The neck is straight, the truss rod is fully functional, and the action has been setup low and comfortable. The frets are in great shape with no major grooves or divots from use and it plays beautifully up and down the fretboard with no dead spots or choking out.

Weight: 7.9  lbs.

Case: This guitar ships in its original hardshell case, professionally packaged, and fully insured.
