Fender MIJ Traditional '60s Jazzmaster Special Run in Ice Blue Metallic With Matching Headstock
For those who have experienced Fender's MIJ models, there really can be no going back. These instruments demonstrate an obsessive dedication to the highest levels of build and finish quality; truly world class. As a result, we try to get them in stock whenever possible, which can be challenging due to their still limited availability in the UK. This guitar is even more rarefied, being a highly limited Special Run model.
The Jazzmaster is the undisputed King of Fender's electric guitar lineup. This MIJ Traditional '60s Jazzmaster is designed to evoke the look and feel of the Jazzmasters produced during the guitar's first full decade of production, after its release in 1958 as a premium guitar to top the brand's range. Since then, its appeal has widened, with guitarists across generations and genres adopting it as their go-to instrument, attracted by its combination of stand-out looks and distinctive tone.
This guitar further exaggerates the Jazzmaster's visual impact, thanks to its unique colourway with body-matching headstock cap. In terms of feel and tone, however, it's exactly as the '60s designers intended. Sophisticated circuitry enables the MIJ Traditional '60s Jazzmaster to span a wide sonic palette. The neck pickup is still capable of those smooth, warm jazz tones you'd expect, but the fat snarl of the bridge is only the flick of a switch away.
The "U"-shaped neck is thicker than a standard "C"-profile, giving it a nice chunk in the hand, while the Rosewood fretboard has a 7.25" radius for a more traditional feel. 21 vintage-style frets span the 'board, with a 25.5" scale length allowing a certain level of twang, usually associated with Fender guitars.
We really can't help loving this Special Run MIJ Traditional '60s Jazzmaster here at Merchant City Music. With its unique colour scheme, its future owner will always stand out from the crowd.
