Fender Custom Shop '59 Reissue Jazzmaster Journeyman Relic

Excellent condition Fender Custom Shop ’59 Jazzmaster Journeyman Relic in Aged White Blonde. A very well-balanced take on a vintage-style Jazzmaster with a few thoughtful modern updates that make it exceptionally playable and stable. Where Jazzmasters can be heavy, this is one of the lightest I've ever played at 7 lbs. The transparent Mary Kaye-style white blonde finish is gorgeous and tastefully relic'd. This guitar shipped with 250k pots, but currently has Emerson 1meg pots installed for a more traditional Jazzmaster tone. The original 250k pots are included and easily swapped in. These MSRP for $5,900 on Sweetwater - grab a fantastic, featherweight example a material discount.

Features include:

• Select ash body
• Rift-sawn maple neck
• Rosewood fingerboard
• ’62-style Jazzmaster “C” neck profile
• 9.5” radius
• 21 narrow tall frets
• Fender Custom Shop hand-wound Jazzmaster pickups
• Traditional Jazzmaster rhythm circuit
• RSD J-Bridge
• Floating vibrato tailpiece
• Vintage-style tuners
• Nitrocellulose lacquer Journeyman Relic finish
• Gold anodized pickguard

The RSD bridge also makes this one noticeably more stable and solid-feeling than many traditional Jazzmaster setups - it stays in tune beautifully and won't require you immediately go out and buy an after-market bridge like most JMs.

The neck feels fantastic, frets are in excellent shape, and the guitar plays cleanly with low action across the board. The Journeyman Relic treatment is tasteful and broken-in without going over the top.

Includes original hardshell case, COA, and case candy.
