These Fender Japan Limited Adjusto-Matic Jazzmaster HH come in Teal Green Metallic and Black finishes.Â
Adjusto-Matic Jazzmaster HH
The Fender Japan Limited Adjusto-Matic Jazzmaster HH models come with a gloss-finished alder body in either Teal Green Metallic or Black. They also come with 22 narrow-tall frets, and a 12-inch radius Modern “C”-shaped maple neck, and a rosewood fretboard.
The Teal Green Metallic version comes with a 3-ply black pickguard, whereas the Black version comes with a 4-ply Tortoiseshell pickguard instead.
Adjusto-Matic
As the name suggests these are hard tail models that come with an Adjusto-Matic bridge setup, rather than the traditional vibrato of a standard Jazzmaster. This adds some stability and could be better for more aggressive players or guitarists who require a little more sustain.
Modern Modified
They also feature a pair of Modern Modified humbucking pickups. These are wired to a single volume and tone control, along with a three-way pickup selector switch.
Guitar Bomb Verdict
An interesting take on the classic offset Jazzmaster model and could be popular with anyone who does not get on with vintage-style Jazzmaster vibrato systems. Or anyone who likes humbucking pickups. Potentially, a great guitar for many styles of music and has some nice color combinations available.
Let’s just hope a few escape from the Japanese market for sale elsewhere in the world.
MSRP – Â¥ 154,000 including gig bag
