(SOLD) Used Fender Jazzmaster '66 Reissue Candy Apple Red
Fender Jazzmaster, candy apple red, made in Japan 1993/4. For a start, this looks awesome. The finish has held up very well over the years, and the matching headstock really pops; you really can't fault these for style. The classic JM electronics allow for a heap of different tones, all easily switchable; you can dial in a couple of go-to settings and quickly flick between them. The big, thick, punchy tone is perfect for layering effects and creating big walls of sound. The neck is slim, round and cooperative, it's playing like a Jazzmaster should. 100% cool!

There's a handful of other minor marks around the body, nothing really noticeable. The guard and pickups have yellowed with age, the bridge and machine heads have dulled a little but still work fine.
