Up for sale, a 2017 Fender Traditional ‘60s Jazzmaster in excellent condition and in perfect working order. A very early example of the Traditional series platform, this discontinued model features an upscale feature set with an alder body and vintage-spec 7 ¼” fretboard radius (in contrast to later models with basswood bodies and a modern radius). This Jazzmaster has been upgraded with a set of USA-made Fender Pure Vintage ‘65 Jazzmaster pickups and a premium wiring harness.
The Traditional ‘60s Jazzmaster has plenty of sparkle and percussive cut on tap, with a range of powerful and defined tones from the upgraded Pure Vintage ‘65 single coil pickups. These vintage-spec pickups feature period-accurate construction and genuine original-era cloth wiring, and engaging the Rhythm Circuit on the guitar's lower body horn yields warmer, wooly sounds. Weighing 7lbs 5oz, this guitar has been setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar, where we specialize in Fender Offset instruments, dialed in with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
