With a distinct, full-sized 'offset-waist' body for comfortable playing in both the standing and seated positions, the Fender Jazzmaster was first unveiled in 1958, and as the name highlights, was originally aimed at jazz and blues performers. Since its inception, the Jazzmaster has gone on to carve out a unique voice that is well-represented in numerous guitar styles, including pop, rock, fusion, surf, and punk. With its customary 'soapbar' single-coil pickups and the ability to cover both rhythm and lead parts with ease, the Fender Jazzmaster is a guitarist's dream and a true jack-of-all-trades.
