Specifications
Electronics & Features
This FSR Traditional II model keeps the classic Jazzmaster layout intact, including the full rhythm and lead circuit setup. The vintage-style pickups deliver the wide, open tone Jazzmasters are known for, while the overall design stays true to the original formula.
The standout feature here is the Lake Placid Blue finish paired with the matching headstock, giving it a more upscale and collectible look compared to standard production models.
Tone & Feel
This guitar has the airy, articulate, and harmonically rich response that makes a great Jazzmaster so appealing. It offers excellent clarity, warmth, and note separation, making it ideal for clean playing, indie, surf, rock, and more expressive styles.
The “U” shaped neck and 9.5" radius strike a nice balance between vintage feel and modern playability. At just 7 lbs 6 oz, it is lightweight, resonant, and very comfortable in hand.
