Fender typically isn’t a guitar brand that you’d associate with metal music, but don’t think they’re not capable of it. This guitar is the perfect example of this. Awesome features like active EMG pickups, a beefy mahogany body, and my favorite feature, a beautiful ebony fretboard. The neck is actually very fitting for hard rock/metal styles, in my opinion. It’s not ultra thin like a Jackson, or ESP, but it’s the perfect combination for fast soloing on the higher frets, and fat enough to chug on the lower ones. All around, it’s a great instrument with great sound and playability. You really cannot go wrong with an American made Fender. Fit and finish has always been top notch on these instruments in my experience with them. Highly recommend this guitar to anyone looking for the quality of a Fender, with the proper aggressiveness to meet that modern metal sound!

The playability on this jazzmaster is second to none, it’s very well balanced so you don’t get shoulder fatigue, and Jim made it to where it can be used for any genre being as the only thing noting it is his signature is on the back of the headstock. Definitely recommend for any type of player!

This guitar has great quality and very nice finish. The EMGs loaded in Thai guitar are hit and has very good output. The tone this guitar give is superb and full. Very smooth neck with easy playability and access to upper frets. Same with body no blemishes or anything very well packaged and delivered quicker than expected! Case with it came with no damages and all sort of Fender goodies. Over all this guitar sound incredible plays great and the comfortability is second to none and the build is again just superb. Highly recommend this beauty to any type of guitar player. The easy payment option to is very useful and helpful to have a guitar you want.

Great American fender quality, fit and finish is perfect and I love the neck on this guitar. Neat looking, good weight to it ...Emgs sound pretty good but I'll probably throw in some passive pickups down the line.

From that black finish to the black locking tuners and EMG pick ups this thing is beautiful example of less is more. I loved that it comes with just about everything you need right out of the box. The mahogany body makes it feel very solid and sound great. Its a simple to the point guitar that's just amazing.

Amazing neck and playability,great sound and sustain, cool satin finish ,but 2 things I’d change would be the lack of a tone knob and wish the pick ups were black instead of chrome , you can easily swap them out though with other emg’s thanx to the Solderless components , not sure i would want this to be my only guitar , but if you have others It’s a great addition to anyone’s stable

This was my first American made fender...just wow! This is the best guitar I have played. It is well made and well worth the price. It is a unique fender which got my attention right away. Active EMGs plus a fender Jazzmaster body, just make me want to buy the tele version.

Product Review
Jazzmaster with emg pickups, a 70s era headstock, plain and simple with one volume no tone not to mention the man behind this axe. Fender absolutely did this justice. The body is thick and beefy to deliver that tone that you can’t explain. The sustain is incredible.I played it right out of the case and have loved every minute of it. I haven’t modded a thing only threw new strings on it. The shipping was awesome, I reviewed my guitar in two days upon payment and the packing was safe and sound. AMS delivered greatly and the staff was informative and genuine in answering any questions that I had about my order or my payment arrangement. They have been nothing but kind and helpful and making sure I am happy with my purchase. I strongly recommend,if you’re into heavy music and you love fender, to look into this guitar, and buy it from these guys. Even if it’s something else I would buy it from AMS.

A Guitar Worth Owning

When you first lay your hands on this guitar you can feel the quality. When playing anywhere on the fretboard it is comfortable and makes playing really easy. I really like the stripped down feel of just the volume knob and pickup selector switch, I really only use the volume knob anyways on my other guitars. This guitar is definitely worth buying and will become one of your favorites.

Solid guitar sounds fantastic, with the EMG pickups the attack is there . The guitar set up was spot on . The ebony fret board an maple is super smooth . . Playing it through a Bogner umbershall just a killer set up not much more to say .

Product Review
It rocks. Its a big long tone monster. The pups are perfect for this body. the neck is long, slim and a joy to play. I am 6'4. and I love the dimensions. Everything just works. The volume really does more than up down. when your on heavy you can use the v-knob to get a little less grit and a little more clear without really loosing your volume. I love simple and if you do to you will like it. I tape my switches to bridge when I know I don't need the other 5 settings on a strat. Neck pup I will maybe change, case is nice, other than that. There's my rating, Git yourself one.
