From Fender: "The Jazz-Tele is a true amalgamation of a Jazzmaster and Telecaster, allowing you to play any genre of music with vintage-inspired sound and sensational aesthetics. It starts with an ash Telecaster body, a classic resonant Fender tonewood that offers clearly chiming highs, well-defined midrange and strong low end. Things lean in another direction with a Jazzmaster pickguard assembly, complete with Pure Vintage '65 pickups, which boast clean and clear vintage-style tone that can also give you an edgy snarl when needed. The neck comes from an American Professional Jazzmaster, which features a 9.5" Radius and narrow-tall frets to give it a comfortable feel while making it easier to bend notes without fretting out. What's more, the American Professional tremolo and bridge assembly has upgraded Mustang saddles and barrels with different widths to match perfectly with the fretboard Radius. Throw in a premium nitrocellulose lacquer finish that lets the body breathe and ages gracefully, and the Parallel Universe Jazz-Tele is a truly distinctive instrument that mines some of Fender's classic DNA." The guitar is in good condition with some scratches on the back, light discoloration where your arm would rest, very light fret wear that doesn't effect playability and a small chip in the pickguard next to the volume knob. It plays and sounds great. Includes original hard shell case.
