Electronics & Features

The Hybrid II series takes the Jazzmaster platform in a slightly more modern direction while still retaining classic Fender character. Unlike traditional Jazzmasters, these models omit the upper rhythm circuit in favor of a simpler and more straightforward control layout.

The Hybrid II custom-voiced pickups deliver excellent clarity, warmth, and articulation, while the locking tuners and modern fretwork make the guitar especially stable and easy to play.

Fender Japan consistently does an excellent job with these models, and they’ve become favorites among players looking for a more practical and versatile Jazzmaster.

Tone & Feel

This Jazzmaster has the open, airy response players love about offsets, with excellent note separation and clarity across all pickup positions. The pickups retain plenty of classic Jazzmaster character while offering a slightly tighter and more balanced modern feel.

The Modern C neck, 9.5" radius, and narrow tall frets make the guitar feel smooth and comfortable in hand, while the floating tremolo system still gives it that unmistakable Jazzmaster feel and response.

At 7 lbs 14 oz, it feels nicely balanced and comfortable for long playing sessions.
