Fender American Vintage II 1966 Jazzmaster Guitar

Fender American Vintage II 1966 Jazzmaster Guitar

Taking it back to the mid-20th century, the Fender American Vintage II 1966 Jazzmaster Guitar oozes with iconic design. Its alder body anchors the full-bodied tones with plenty of rich, sustaining warmth. This is complemented by the maple neck’s tight, articulate projection, and the rosewood fingerboard’s shimmering veneer. Pair this with Pure Vintage ’66 Single-coil Jazzmaster pickups and you’ve got the seminal sounds of the era. Classic controls include “witch hat” knobs and thumbwheels to dial in a perfectly personal, balanced tone.

Classic construction, full-bodied tone

In keeping with tradition, Fender’s luthiers made sure to do their homework on this American Vintage II 1966 Jazzmaster, ensuring era-accurate tonewoods were used to faithfully capture the guitar’s iconic sound. The alder body establishes a full, sonorous tonal foundation. Maple imparts a bright, crystalline tone to the Jazzmaster’s sonic array, bringing out crisp highs, excellent projection, and clear, tight articulation through every register. Rosewood adorns the fingerboard, taming the tones in just the right way to deliver that classic Jazzmaster sound.

Dial in your tone with vintage voltage

With the notable inclusion of the historic “witch hat” knobs, you’ll be happy to know that Fender’s attention to detail is not just skin-deep. Classic circuitry includes not only the master tone and volume control knobs, but the classic thumbwheel and slide switch arrangement for dialing in and rocking out. Pure Vintage ’66 Single-coil Jazzmaster pickups occupy the neck and bridge positions, brimming with character and masterfully encapsulating that vaunted vintage output.

Comfort, class, and sonic scope

Like the Jazzmaster’s genre-defying presence, it boasts a versatile “C”-shaped neck. Its offset cutaways ensure unfettered access to all 21 of its vintage-tall frets, sprawling a 7.25-inch fingerboard radius that’s beautifully bound for historically-accurate panache. Complementing its tonal triumphs, the 4-bolt maple neck is known for its dimensional stability, making it highly resistant to twisting or warping — another reason the Jazzmaster is so physically and sonically enduring.
