Jazzmaster history - a true legend
First introduced at the 1958 NAMM Show with a great deal of chrome and controls, the Jazzmaster was originally designed for traditional jazz musicians. However, it soon found itself embraced by reverb-drenched surf guitarists in the '60s, lip-curling punks in the '70s, and legions of alt-indie from the late '80s onward.
Fender's first dual-circuit instrument - the Jazzmaster provided a new level of versatility. While the traditional wide and flat pickups produced a broad tonality, with less bite and a subtler attack than most single-coil pickups. A first choice among players worldwide, there is nothing that can come close to the natural comfort, remarkable tonal versatility, and distinct character the Jazzmaster offers.
