Fender Jazzmaster
Guitar & Bass by Fender
The Fender Jazzmaster is an offset-body electric guitar introduced by Fender in 1958, originally aimed at jazz players but distinguished by its large floating tremolo, dual lead/rhythm circuit, and wide single-coil soapbar pickups. It found its true audience among surf and indie rock musicians, and became closely associated with the layered, feedback-drenched guitar sound of My Bloody Valentine's Loveless.
