Yay or hell yay: Fender Jazzmaster 60th Anniversary Triplebucker

[FenderPusher]

I'd honestly need to hear these pickups before I give a hell yay because sometimes Fender's foray into humbucking sounds like moist ass. I like the look of it, and their acknowledgement that the original saddles were crap.

That could be fun. I wonder what the switch on the upper bout does.

 

[VoidTerraFirma]

Too jazzy for me.

That's the Jass switch, "up" for Hot Jass, "down" for Smoove Jass.

 

[Grant Gross]

It looks cool. Too spendy for my blood, though.

Why, just why?

 

[GomezAddams]

Where's the pickup behind the bridge?

The pickups are great. They don’t deserve to attached to that thing.

Pass.

 

[Hubert Stumblin]

Looks pretty dang cool to me.

Love the look.
Think the pricing is too high.
Would want to try it out to see what it sounds like.

Maple board.

Just to make it worse.

Price is a little high.

Took a look - Fender finally offering a decent $1,200 JM (https://shop.fender.com/en-US/elect...nniversary-classic-jazzmaster/0140101706.html).

But that's $1,200 for MIM (I think). Which is, you know: fuck you.

The Strat®-style 5-way pickup switch lets you access traditional Strat pickup configurations, while the mini-toggle switch activates the neck and bridge pickups simultaneously in position three.
