Full Description

Classic Jazzmaster Style With a Vintage Feel

The Fender FSR Made in Japan Traditional II '60s Jazzmaster is a tribute to the golden era of offset guitars, delivering the same vintage character that made the Jazzmaster a favourite among alternative and surf guitarists. With its alder body and gloss finish, it boasts a classic aesthetic that stays true to its 1960s roots. The combination of a 4-ply tortoiseshell pickguard and vintage white control knobs adds a touch of retro authenticity, making it a standout instrument both visually and sonically. Built for left-handed players, this model offers the same timeless appeal as its right-handed counterparts, ensuring an authentic playing experience without compromise.

Smooth Playability With a Comfortable Neck

Designed for effortless playability, this Jazzmaster features a "U" shape maple neck that sits comfortably in the hand, making it ideal for both rhythm and lead work. The gloss urethane finish enhances the smooth feel, while the rosewood fretboard adds warmth and resonance to the overall tone. A 9.5" fretboard radius provides a balanced playing surface, striking the perfect middle ground between vintage comfort and modern versatility. The vintage-style frets allow for intricate bends and fluid chord transitions, ensuring a satisfying feel when playing complex jazz voicings or aggressive rock riffs.

Versatile Tones With Dual-Circuit Controls

Equipped with vintage-style single-coil pickups, this Jazzmaster delivers the distinctive chime and warmth that has defined the model for decades. The dual-circuit design offers an incredible range of tones, allowing seamless transitions between rhythm and lead sounds. The rhythm circuit, activated via the slide switch, provides a darker, mellow tone perfect for chordal work, while the lead circuit delivers bright, articulate sounds suited for cutting through a mix. With additional thumbwheel controls for fine-tuning the neck pickup’s volume and tone, this Jazzmaster is built for sonic exploration.

Expressive Vibrato With Rock-Solid Tuning

At the heart of the Jazzmaster’s signature feel is its floating tremolo bridge, which provides smooth, expressive vibrato that enhances everything from subtle pitch variations to dramatic dives. The six-saddle vintage-style adjustable bridge ensures precise intonation, allowing for a perfectly dialled-in setup. From adding gentle warbles to clean tones or creating dynamic, wavy textures in distorted settings, the floating tremolo adds a unique dimension to the guitar’s sound. Combined with vintage-style tuners and a stable 4-bolt neck plate, this system offers the best of both worlds—classic vibrato character with reliable tuning stability.
