Vintage Heart, Modern Soul
Meet the Fender American Professional Classic Jazzmaster in a stunning Faded Firemist Gold finish. This isn’t just another offset—it’s a masterful blend of golden-era vibe and intelligent, player-focused upgrades. Fender has taken the iconic Jazzmaster platform and refined it for the modern stage and studio, creating an instrument that feels both instantly familiar and excitingly new. From the moment you pick it up, the lightweight alder body resonates with a lively punch, while the custom-faded finish gives it the look of a treasured vintage find. This is a pro-grade tool built for players who demand classic tone and flawless performance, night after night.
Tone That Sparkles and Growls
The magic starts with the Coastline ’65 Single-Coil Jazzmaster pickups. Fender based these on their Pure Vintage designs but gave them a little extra juice—they’re slightly overwound to deliver an enhanced warmth and punch without sacrificing that signature Fender chime and sparkle. The bridge pickup has a raw, gritty cut that slices through a mix, while the neck pickup offers a buttery, glassy warmth perfect for rhythm or expressive leads. The middle position gives you that classic, scooped out-of-phase cluck with beautiful harmonic complexity. It’s the ideal sonic palette for everything from shimmering clean chords to fuzzed-out shoegaze textures.
Effortless Playability
This Jazzmaster is built to be played, hard. The Modern “C” neck profile is a dream to play—substantial enough for chording comfort but slim enough for lightning-fast runs. Paired with a modern 9.5″ radius rosewood fingerboard and 22 medium-jumbo frets, string bending and intricate voicings feel effortless. The satin urethane finish on the neck is silky smooth, ensuring your hand never gets hung up, even during the most intense sets. It’s a neck that just gets out of the way and lets you connect with the music.
Rock-Solid Vintage Hardware
Fender nailed the hardware, combining vintage aesthetics with modern stability. The Jazzmaster bridge is fitted with Mustang saddles to prevent the string-slippage issues of older designs, giving you a solid and reliable anchor point. The vintage-style “floating” tremolo provides smooth, expressive action for everything from subtle warbles to deep dives. At the other end, Fender’s ClassicGear staggered tuners offer a classic look with precise, modern tuning stability, ensuring you stay in tune no matter how much you use the tremolo. It’s the perfect marriage of form and function.
