1963 Fender Jazzmaster Pre-CBS Vintage Guitar Fiesta Red w/ Blonde Case
Up for sale, a 1963 Fender Jazzmaster in perfect working order, finished in Fiesta Red over Desert Sand and complete with the original blonde hardshell case. A rare custom color example, this guitar retains its original untouched Fiesta Red nitro lacquer finish on the peghead, with considerable Fiesta Red overspray on top of the original lacquer on the body, heavily and honestly worn over decades with no artificial relic'ing. The guitar retains the original electronics, hardware and plastics, including the rare wide bevel mint green nitrate pickguard.
Lightweight for a Jazzmaster at 8lbs 2oz, this Pre-CBS Fender has a clear, lively natural acoustic quality, and the pair of black bobbin single coils both retain their original windings. There's a very round, sweet and woody quality to the neck pickup, with a clear, bell-like sound when both pickups are engaged thatās a fair bit fatter than one usually expects in this position. The bridge pickup has plenty of upper midrange cut and aggression while also having notably bouncy trebles. Professionally setup here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar, we've dialed in this Jazzmaster with 11-49 roundwound strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
