Overview

One of the coolest iterations of one of Fender's coolest instruments!

The Fender '66 Classic Jazzmaster Limited Edition is sharp looking and delivers fantastic tone. This rare and highly sought-after beauty has unusually advanced electronics”even by today's standards. Originally designed for jazz players when it was introduced in 1958, the Jazzmaster's bell-like tones later became popular with surf and rock guitarists including Elvis Costello, Tom Verlaine of Television, as well as Lee Ranaldo and Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth. With a bound neck and block inlays, and the comfortable contoured offset-waist body, the 1966 Fender Jazzmaster is an appealing iteration of one marvelous instrument. The vintage style "Floating" tremolo tailpiece has a special lock button. The Fender Classic Jazzmaster Limited Edition won't last long so get one while they last!
