Electric Guitar Review

Fender’s distinctive looking Jazzmaster is one of those guitars that goes in and out of style, but never seems to disappear…and good thing – it’s a truly unique instrument with a history dating back to 1958, and a short but illustrious heyday during the surf-guitar days of the ‘60s, and then again during the indie-rock days of the ‘90s.

In spite of its rather “surfy” looks, the American Jazzmaster actually provides a rather warm tone, due to its dual Vintage Jazzmaster Single-Coil Pickups. It’s also notable for sporting a cool floating tremolo with “Trem-Lock,” so it actually *gasp* stays in tune if you use it!

Oh yeah, and it just plain looks cool.
