Fender American Professional II Jazzmaster, Rosewood Fingerboard, Mercury Overview
The darling of indie and alternative music for decades, the Fender Jazzmaster is renowned as much for its sonic flexibility as it is for the chime and sparkle of its sound. The American Professional II Jazzmaster embraces that exceptional history and builds on it. This latest reimagining of the indie classic adds a tap function for the bridge pickup allowing the player to switch between a lower-output vintage sound and a more powerful, throaty tone, while the rhythm circuit is activated by simply flicking a switch, delivering a thicker, higher output tone with the pickups in series. Adding even more versatility, the American Professional II Jazzmaster also features the brand new Panorama Tremolo system, dramatically extending the range of the traditional Jazzmaster trem, delivering the classic Fender Jazzmaster warble right through to Stratocaster style dives. Also available as Left Handed.
