Jimmy Eat World frontman Jim Adkins has relied on his signature Fender JA-90 Telecaster Thinline models for over a decade. With the core design and features remaining much the same in this time, different colour options have been made available – and the latest look is arguably the best so far!
Finished in a beautiful yet understated white finish, the Fender JA-90 model boasts a resonant and lightweight semi-hollow body fitted with punchy Seymour Duncan P-90 pickups.
Body & Neck
The Fender JA-90 Jim Adkins signature guitar is built around a gorgeous semi-hollow Ash body. Offering an airy sound with particular focus on the mid-range and highs, this body serves as the perfect host for the potent-sounding pickups.
Paired with a set Maple neck that enhances sustain, this material also adds some bright snappiness that gives notes plenty of immediacy and a fast response. Adorned with a smooth Laurel fingerboard, the Fender JA-90 also boasts a relatively short 24.75" scale length; making notes feel slightly easier to bend with the decreased string tension.
Seymour Duncan P-90 Pickups
Fender's Jim Adkins JA-90 Telecaster Thinline comes equipped with a set of genuine Seymour Duncan P-90 pickups, giving the instrument its powerful voice. With a SP90-3 Custom in the bridge position and a SP90-1N RWRP Vintage in the neck, this dynamic pairing is perfect for achieving the punky alt-rock tones that Adkins has pioneered through his highly-influential band.
Independent volume and tone controls for each pickup gives you ultimate control over your sound, with the 3-way pickup switch allowing you to isolate each P-90 or combine the two for a more balanced tonal character – great for cleans.
