Fender 2024 AVII 1966 Jazzmaster – 3-Color Sunburst – $5,699

Brand new from the USA: Fender 2024 American Vintage II 1966 Jazzmaster in 3-Color Sunburst.

The Fender American Vintage II series presents a remarkably accurate take on the revolutionary designs that altered the course of musical history. Built with period-accurate bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and meticulously voiced, year-specific pickups, each instrument captures the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone.

The Jazzmaster was originally advertised as a guitar that contained “all the well-known Fender developments”, where “every convenience is provided”. 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.

The American Vintage II 1966 Jazzmaster features 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 and 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.
