Fender® 011-2200-878 American Vintage 65 Jazzmaster® - Aztec Gold

The American Vintage series introduces an all-new lineup of original-era model year guitars that bring Fender® history and heritage to authentic and exciting new life. With key features and pivotal design elements spanning the mid-1950s to the mid-1960s, new American Vintage series instruments delve deep into Fender's roots-expertly preserving an innovative U.S. guitar-making legacy and vividly demonstrating like never before that Fender® not only knows where it's going, but also remembers where it came from.

The American Vintage '65 Jazzmaster® takes you back to the middle of that musically momentous decade, when the reverb-drenched surf had largely receded and the Jazzmaster® began its steady decade-long ascent toward alternative indispensability for subversive new generations of iconoclastic guitarists. It had also acquired some elegant new design features by 1965, such as a bound round-laminated rosewood fingerboard with larger pearl dot inlays, and distinctive White "witch hat" control knobs
