Up for sale, a 2003 Fender Jazzmaster ‘62 vintage reissue model JM66-80 in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order, complete with hangtag. This "Crafted in Japan" Jazzmaster is a discontinued model, designed for sale within Japan and uncommon outside its country of origin.
Tonewoods include an alder body, maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, and the guitar offers a broad range of vintage-flavored tonalities. At 8lbs 1oz, the instrument has an authoritative, clear sound when strummed acoustically, qualities that are translated faithfully through the original alnico magnet single coil pair. These pickups offer plenty of definition and sparkling cut, with warmer, wooly sounds via the Rhythm Circuit on the guitar's lower body horn. Professionally setup prior to me taking ownership of it by Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar, where they specialize in Fender Offset instruments. This Jazzmaster was setup with 11-49 strings, has low action and accurate intonation. Has less than two hours of playing on from me. The thing about this JM that I love the most is the aged hardware. It definitely looks and sounds killer. It has that vintage JM tone. Will ship via UPS fully insured with signature upon delivery.
Cosmetic wear includes a couple dings of note, one in the black of the Sunburst (See Photo) on the bass-side lower bout edge on top, and one just south of the belly carve on the back. Wear is otherwise limited to a few small marks and light finish scratches in the clear coat. The smooth gloss finish on the neck profile is nigh flawless.
The original Fender-branded gigbag is included, along with the Fender Japan manual and serialized hangtag.
Any additional questions, just let me know!
Thanks for looking!
