Description

Matching instantly recognisable looks with premium build-quality, the American Vintage II Jazzmaster is built with period-accurate bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and meticulously voiced, year-specific pickups giving you the classic Fender experience.

Key Features

  • Alder Body – Alder is lightweight & gives a decent spanky blues/rock tone.
  • Gloss Nitrocellulose Lacquer Finish – Provides a high-gloss finish which gives a smooth playing feel.
  • C Shaped Neck Profile – C-shaped necks have a comfortable oval profile no matter what style of music you are playing.
  • Hardcase Included – Protect and carry the Jazzmaster with the included carry case.

Featuring a comfortable “C” shape Maple neck that plays like a dream with a 7.25″ radius round-lam Rosewood fingerboard and vintage tall frets.

Characteristic of production in 1966, this guitar is offered with white neck binding, pearl blocks & single-line “Fender Deluxe” tuners. The patented “floating” tremolo, adjustable bridge with threaded saddles and Pure Vintage ’66 Jazzmaster pickups, wired to the signature rhythm and lead circuits, deliver classic tone and authentic Fender feel.

The Jazzmaster

Intended to provide a luxury playing experience and tempt jazz guitarists into playing solidbody electric guitars, this futuristic and comfort-contoured offset is about as far from a boxy archtop as can be imagined. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the guitar failed to catch on with the jazz crowd, but instead gained early acceptance with ’60s surf, and later, indie-rock, alternative, and even country players.

American Vintage II Range

The instruments in the American Vintage II series are direct descendants of the original Fenders: designed for players with a fine appreciation for vintage Fender tone and feel and built with unmatched quality, down to the last screw. These are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender American Vintage II, the stuff of legends.

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.
