First introduced at the 1958 NAMM show, the Jazzmaster guitar features a uniquely contoured body, a snappy 25-1/2” scale length and warm-sounding pickups. Separate lead and rhythm circuit switching is a classic original design incorporating independent volume and tone controls, and the floating tremolo with tremolo lock adds to the Jazzmaster’s distinctive look and sound.
