For Sale: 2025 Fender MIJ Japan Traditional ’60s Jazzmaster – Black Pearl Matching Headstock w/ HSC

Up for sale is a 2025 Fender MIJ Japan Traditional ’60s Jazzmaster in Black Pearl, complete with a non-original hard-shell case.

This is a very cool limited Fender Japan model with a sharp, upscale look and classic Jazzmaster feel. The Black Pearl finish, matching headstock, and gold hardware give it a much more premium visual presentation than a standard production Jazzmaster, while the traditional offset layout and vintage-style pickups keep it firmly rooted in classic Fender territory. As expected from a Japanese domestic market model, the fit, finish, and overall craftsmanship are excellent.

Condition

This guitar is in excellent condition and I would rate it a solid 9/10. It shows light scratches, a few small dings, and some tarnish to the gold hardware from normal use. Please review all photos carefully for the most accurate representation of condition.

This guitar is all original with no modifications. There are no cracks, breaks, repairs, or structural issues. The neck is straight and stable, the frets are in perfect condition with no wear, and the guitar plays cleanly up and down the neck with no buzzing or dead spots. It has also been recently professionally set up and is ready to go.

The non-original hard-shell case is included.

Electronics & Features

One of the biggest draws of this model is the combination of classic Jazzmaster styling with a more upscale limited-edition visual package. The Black Pearl finish, matching headstock, and gold hardware give it a custom-level look that really stands out from more common Jazzmaster finishes.

At the same time, it still delivers the familiar Jazzmaster formula players want. The original vintage-style single-coils, floating tremolo, and offset body design keep the guitar true to its roots, while the Fender Japan build quality makes it feel especially refined and dependable.

Tone & Feel

This guitar has the wide, articulate, and expressive tone the Jazzmaster is known for, with clear highs, full lows, and rich harmonic character. It works beautifully for clean playing, indie, surf, alternative, rock, pop, and more ambient textures where note separation and openness matter.

The U-shaped neck feels comfortable and substantial without being bulky, and the 9.5" radius makes the guitar especially player-friendly. At 7 lbs 6 oz, it is lightweight, balanced, and very comfortable in hand.
