Finished in classic \u003cstrong\u003eFiesta Red\u003c\/strong\u003e over an alder body and paired with a beautifully figured AAA rosewood fingerboard, this is the kind of Custom Shop Jazzmaster that looks right at home whether it's sitting in a collection or getting played hard on stage.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003ealder body\u003c\/strong\u003e provides the balanced, punchy foundation you'd expect from a great Fender, while the Relic finish gives the guitar the appearance and character of a well-loved vintage instrument. This is vintage-inspired without being overly precious about it—a guitar that's meant to be played.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe neck is crafted from \u003cstrong\u003erift-sawn maple\u003c\/strong\u003e and carved to a substantial \u003cstrong\u003eLarge C profile\u003c\/strong\u003e, measuring \u003cstrong\u003e.850\" at the 1st fret and .990\" at the 12th\u003c\/strong\u003e. There's considerably more wood in your hand than you'll find on many modern Fender necks, but the Large C remains comfortable and familiar. The \u003cstrong\u003eAAA-grade rosewood fingerboard\u003c\/strong\u003e features a \u003cstrong\u003e9.5\" radius\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e6105 Narrow Tall frets\u003c\/strong\u003e, giving the guitar a decidedly player-friendly feel while retaining plenty of vintage Fender character. A \u003cstrong\u003e1.65\" bone nut\u003c\/strong\u003e completes the neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHandwound Jazzmaster Pickups \u0026amp; 250K Controls\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of this Jazzmaster is a set of \u003cstrong\u003ehandwound Jazzmaster pickups\u003c\/strong\u003e, delivering the distinctive combination of clarity, punch, and airy single-coil character that makes the Jazzmaster such a unique Fender design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this particular Custom Shop build especially interesting is the use of \u003cstrong\u003e250K pots\u003c\/strong\u003e for the master volume and master tone controls. That specification gives the electronics a slightly different character than the higher-value pots commonly associated with Jazzmasters, and it's an important part of what makes this guitar a \u003cstrong\u003e1959 250K Jazzmaster\u003c\/strong\u003e rather than simply another Custom Shop Jazzmaster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe control layout remains beautifully straightforward: \u003cstrong\u003emaster volume, master tone, and 250K potentiometers\u003c\/strong\u003e put everything you need right where you'd expect it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRSD Jaguar Tremolo System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vibrato system is another particularly cool feature. This Jazzmaster is equipped with an \u003cstrong\u003eRSD Jaguar Tremolo System\u003c\/strong\u003e, bringing the smooth, expressive feel of the Jaguar-style tremolo to this Custom Shop build. It's a great complement to the Jazzmaster's personality, giving you everything from subtle pitch movement to more dramatic vibrato effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe overall combination makes this a very compelling Custom Shop Jazzmaster: \u003cstrong\u003eFiesta Red, alder, rift-sawn maple, AAA rosewood, a substantial Large C neck, handwound pickups, 250K pots, and the RSD Jaguar Tremolo System.\u003c\/strong\u003e It's an unusual enough specification to stand apart from the typical Jazzmaster, while still feeling unmistakably Fender.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Music Gallery has been a \u003cstrong\u003eFender Custom Shop dealer since 1987\u003c\/strong\u003e, and we've spent decades buying, selling, playing, and obsessing over these instruments. We particularly enjoy Custom Shop guitars like this one because the interesting stuff is often in the details—the neck carve, pickup winding, electronics, hardware, and wood selection that turn a familiar model into something distinctly its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003e1959 250K Jazzmaster Relic\u003c\/strong\u003e comes complete with its \u003cstrong\u003eCertificate of Authenticity and original hardshell case\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFender Custom Shop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1959 250K Jazzmaster Relic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFiesta Red Finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlder Body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRift-Sawn Maple Neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge C Neck Profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e.850\" Depth at 1st Fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e.990\" Depth at 12th Fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAAA Rosewood Fingerboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9.5\" Fingerboard Radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6105 Narrow Tall Frets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.65\" Nut Width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBone Nut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandwound Jazzmaster Pickups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaster Volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaster Tone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e250K Pots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Jaguar Tremolo System\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCertificate of Authenticity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal Hardshell Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFender Custom Shop\u003cbr\u003e1959 250k Jazzmaster Relic\u003cbr\u003eFiesta Red Finish\u003cbr\u003eAlder Body\u003cbr\u003eWeighs 8 lbs 4 oz\u003cbr\u003eRift Sawn Maple Neck Material\u003cbr\u003eLarge C Neck Profile\u003cbr\u003e.850\" deep at 1st Fret\u003cbr\u003e.990\" deep at 12th Fret\u003cbr\u003eAAA-Rosewood Fingerboard\u003cbr\u003e9.5\" Fingerboard Radius\u003cbr\u003e6105 Narrow Tall Frets\u003cbr\u003e1.65\" Nut Width\u003cbr\u003eBone Nut Material\u003cbr\u003eHand Wound Jazzmaster Pickups\u003cbr\u003eMaster Volume\u003cbr\u003eMaster Tone\u003cbr\u003e250K Pots\u003cbr\u003eRSD Jaguar Tremolo System\u003cbr\u003eCertificate of Authenticity\u003cbr\u003eOriginal Hardshell Case\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fender Custom Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53444361191721,"sku":"R150800","price":5675.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0013\/6111\/7231\/files\/DSC7867.jpg?v=1787941213","url":"https:\/\/musicgalleryinc.com\/products\/fender-custom-shop-59-250k-jazzmaster-journeyman-in-fiesta-red-r150800","provider":"The Music Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
