Fender Vintera III Mid '60s Jazzmaster – Vintage Feel, Modern Reliability

The Fender Vintera III Mid '60s Jazzmaster RW Sonic Blue captures the essence of mid-'60s offset guitars, merging period-correct detail with robust modern construction. Featuring an alder body, polished finish, and a maple neck, the guitar delivers the classic resonance and punch that defined a generation. With a round-laminated rosewood fingerboard and era-appropriate "C"-shaped neck profile, the playing feel authentically mirrors what made Jazzmasters essential in surf, indie, and pop genres. The Vintera III series brings back Fender’s renowned sound, tone, and playability, creating a true homage to its storied era. As a faithful tribute, this instrument is tailored for musicians who seek both vintage sound and modern dependability.

Mid-'60s Appointments & Unique Features

Vintage-style mid-'60s single-coil pickups are the defining element here, providing the bright, jangly sound with a rich midrange favored across genres. Flexible tonal options and expressive '60s character are available thanks to the floating tremolo with push-in arm and an era-correct lead/rhythm circuit switch. Visual authenticity is completed by a Sonic Blue headstock and mint green pickguard.

Feel & Comfort – For the Serious Player

Playability sits at the heart of the Jazzmaster experience. The 184 mm (7.25") radius and 21 vintage-tall frets encourage fluid chording and expressive string bends. The mid-'60s "C"-shaped maple neck profile gives a comfortable grip for both fast runs and barre chords.

• Neck Material: Maple — ensures crisp attack and stability for reliable performance.
• Fingerboard: Round-laminated rosewood — brings warmth and depth to every note played.
• Period-authentic 184 mm fingerboard radius lets you play with vintage-accurate comfort and ease.

Classic Build – Tone & Expression

Body material and finish directly shape the guitar’s sustain and tonal response. With an alder body, the Jazzmaster balances strong lows and clear resonance, while the gloss polyester finish maintains both sound integrity and striking contours.

• Body Material: Alder — provides bold low-end and lively resonance.
• Finish: Polished (Gloss Polyester) — offers vintage look and resilience.
• Measuring 648 mm, the scale length delivers the classic Fender snap and lasting sustain.

Electronics & Hardware for the Stage

• Pickups: Vintage-style mid-'60s single-coil Jazzmaster (bridge & neck) — enables wide, full frequency response for dynamic play.
