Part of Fender Japan's Modern Series, this Made-in-Japan Jazzmaster is designed for players wanting the feel and visual identity of a traditional offset combined with the speed, stability, and precision expected from a more contemporary performance instrument.
The Modern Series platform reworks the Jazzmaster with upgraded ergonomics, improved upper fret access, modern hardware, and a faster-playing neck design while retaining the core offset character that makes the model so distinctive.
This example has also been upgraded with a set of Bare Knuckle Nailbomb humbuckers, pushing the instrument far beyond traditional Jazzmaster territory into heavier, more aggressive tonal territory while retaining excellent articulation and dynamic response.
Modernised Jazzmaster PlatformThe high-quality 3-piece alder body features a streamlined modern interpretation of the classic Jazzmaster design, paired with a selected rosewood fingerboard and performance-focused neck geometry.
Modern appointments include: - Compound radius fingerboard - Improved heel cut - Locking tuners - Tune-O-Matic-style bridge - Luminous side dot markers
Together, these upgrades provide: - Faster playability - Improved tuning stability - Smoother upper fret access - Better visibility on dark stages - Enhanced bending stability and sustain
Bare Knuckle Nailbomb UpgradesThis guitar has been fitted with Bare Knuckle Nailbomb pickups, known for: - Aggressive midrange - Tight low-end response - High-output articulation - Excellent note separation under gain - Strong harmonic response
The Nailbombs shift the instrument toward: - Modern rock - Alternative metal - Progressive styles - High-gain ambient textures - Heavier offset tones
while still retaining clarity and dynamic sensitivity.
Performance-Focused HardwareThe Tune-O-Matic-style bridge improves: - Intonation stability - Sustain - String stability during bends - Overall tuning consistency
Locking tuners further enhance tuning reliability for heavier playing styles and live performance use.
