SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

The Fender Vintera III Mid '60s Jazzmaster captures the distinctive feel and character that made the Jazzmaster a favorite among players seeking something beyond the traditional solid-body formula. Its pair of vintage-style single-coil pickups deliver the model’s signature blend of warmth, clarity, and chime, while the classic lead and rhythm circuits offer a surprising range of tonal options. The vintage-spec 7.25" radius neck and floating tremolo system provide an authentic playing experience that feels true to the original mid-'60s design. Finished in Olympic White with a tortoiseshell pickguard, this Jazzmaster has timeless style to match its unmistakable voice. Expressive, dynamic, and full of personality, it embodies everything that has made the Jazzmaster an enduring classic.
