Fender Custom Shop Jazzmaster 62 Rw Journeyman Relic Super Faded Aged Fiesta Red

The Cult Offset That Shaped Surf, Post-Punk, and Indie

Born for jazz, the Jazzmaster quickly conquered surf scenes, then punk, post-punk, and indie currents. This Custom Shop '62 edition pays tribute to the early rosewood fingerboard models, featuring a controlled "Played" patina in the "Journeyman Relic" style that replicates natural wear without excess, capturing the soul of the sixties with the reliability of a modern instrument.

For Whom and Which Styles?

Perfect for intermediate to expert guitarists seeking an expressive and comfortable offset electric. It excels in surf, rock, post-punk, indie/alt, and ambient styles, while offering enough warmth for modern jazz and mellow pop/rock. The 25.5" / 648 mm scale length ensures exemplary tension, attack, and tuning stability.

The Sound

The Custom Shop Jazzmaster single-coils deliver a full, smooth, and airy tone, with rich low-mids and satin highs. The lead/rhythm circuit allows switching from a softer rhythm register to a brighter main voicing. The 3-position selector and volume/tone controls provide true versatility, from crisp surf "drip" to enveloping indie textures. The RSD bridge with compensated brass saddles stabilizes intonation and promotes natural sustain.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

Prefer a guitar stand compatible with nitro finishes to preserve the finish. An adjustable capo for electric guitars suited to a 9.5" / 241 mm radius will ensure even intonation. Finally, bring a set of nickel-plated steel strings 10-46, the original string gauge.
