Made in the USA, this guitar features an Aged Black Nitro Lacquer finish on a lightweight Alder body. Guitar weighs in at 7lbs 10oz. so it’s a nice light weight for a Jazzmaster-style guitar.

The fully PLEK'd Maple neck has a Soft V-C profile (.86) and a 25.5" scale length that's 1 11/16" at the bone nut with a 9.5" radius and 6105 frets. It has a light, slightly tinted & aged satin finish that feels great and will not get sticky when playing.

The pickups are Novak Wide Range For Jazzmaster pickups which Novak describes as “Vintage correct Wide Range Humbucker made to fit in a Jazzmaster. Adjustable threaded rod magnets and 3×3 offset design.” They’re powerful and detailed sounding pickups which clean up nicely with the volume control.

The tone control is a DeLisle PentaTone switch which provides five positions of varitone/notch filter which affect all pickup settings. First postion is “Bypass” and then there are five sculpted tone settings on the rotary switch.

The Descendant Vibrato is an innovative new unit that's beautifully engineered to increase the break angle behind the bride for enhanced sustain and resonance. The vented design allows an adjustable angle for the strings to increase downward pressure on the bridge. It also allows adjustment of the arm tension from above the unit which is not possible on any other Jazzmaster-style trem. Check out the video below and others on my YouTube page, it works smoothly and maintains tuning stability very well.

The vintage-style bridge is by StayTrem which maintains the vintage look of a traditional Jazzmaster bridge but is a huge improvement over the original design with better sustain, adjustability and overall tone.

There's also VIP audio taper pots, a PIO cap and cloth covered wiring. The vintage knobs and two-tone Sparkle pickguard tie it all together.

Great parts and great care go into these guitars and this one comes in a hardshell case.

Demo video was recorded in standard tuning through a Neural DSP Quad Cortex.
