A Fender Custom Shop 1966 Jazzmaster Relic in Black that captures the unmistakable vibe of a mid-'60s Jazzmaster while incorporating the precision and craftsmanship of the Fender Custom Shop. Built from a two-piece alder body and finished in thin nitrocellulose lacquer, this Time Machine Series instrument delivers the resonant, airy response that made the Jazzmaster a favorite among surf, indie, alternative, and experimental players. The tasteful Relic treatment provides the look and feel of a well-loved vintage original, while preserving exceptional playability and reliability.

The quartersawn maple neck features a comfortable '66 Strat Oval "C" profile paired with a round-lam AAA rosewood fingerboard. Hand-Wound Fat '60s Jazzmaster pickups deliver the classic Jazzmaster recipe of clarity, warmth, and wide dynamic range, with articulate highs and rich low-end response. An RSD Jazzmaster/Jaguar bridge improves stability and performance while maintaining the vintage aesthetic. Finished in timeless Black with a relic'd parchment pickguard, this Custom Shop Jazzmaster is a perfect blend of vintage character and modern refinement.
