The Fender® American Vintage II series presents a remarkably accurate take on the revolutionary designs that altered the course of musical history. Built with period-accurate bodies, necks and hardware, premium finishes and meticulously voiced, year-specific pickups, each instrument captures the essence of authentic Fender craftsmanship and tone.
The Jazzmaster® was originally advertised as a guitar that contained “all the well-known Fender developments,” where “every convenience is provided.” Intended to provide a luxury playing experience and tempt jazz guitarists into playing solidbody electric guitars, this futuristic and comfort-contoured offset is about as far from a boxy archtop as can be imagined. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the guitar failed to catch on with the jazz crowd, but instead gained early acceptance with ‘60s surf, and later, indie-rock, alternative, and even country players.

The instruments in the American Vintage II series are direct descendants of the original Fenders: designed for players with a fine appreciation for vintage Fender tone and feel and built with unmatched quality, down to the last screw. These are Fender electrics in their purest form: Fender American Vintage II, the stuff of legends.
Om Fender
Fender er nok verdens mest kendte producent af guitarer. Siden grundlæggeren Leo Fender i 1951 sendte den første Telecaster på markedet, har Fender været det mest populære mærker for guitarister i hele verden.
Leo Fender startede i efteråret 1938 “Fender’s Radio Service”. Her repararede og solgte han radioer o.lign. Efter nogle år begyndte Leo at producere guitarforstærkere og lap steel guitarer. I 1946 tog han springet og omdøbte firmaet til “Fender Electric Instrument Company” – samme år blev den legendariske Princeton introduceret.
I 1950-51 sender Fender Telecasteren på markedet, og kort efter fulgte Precision bassen sammen med Bassman forstærkeren. Samme år lukkede Leo sin radio-reparationsforretning, og fokuserede al sin energi på at producere instrumenter og forstærkere.
Få år efter, i 1954, blev Stratocaster introduceret. Hvis man mente at Telecasteren solgte godt, var det intet i forhold hvor populær Stratocasteren var og er. Lanceringen af den nye model var udslagsgivende for Fenders eksponentielle vækst. Ganske kort tid efter havde Fender over 100 ansatte, og blev solgt i hele verden.
Siden har Fender introduceret Jazz Bass, Jaguar, Jazzmaster og et væld af andre ikoniske instrumenter. Der er skrevet lange bøger om Fender, og med god grund; deres vitale rolle i udviklingen af den elektriske guitar kan ikke underkendes.
I dag producere Fender elektriske guitar, basser, nylonstrengede guitar, ukuleler, forstærkere, effekter, kabler og et væld af andet tilbehør.
