For Sale: 2007 Fender MIJ Japan JM66 USB ’62 Reissue Jazzmaster – Blonde w/ HSC

Up for sale is a 2007 Fender MIJ Japan JM66 USB ’62 Reissue Jazzmaster in Blonde, complete with a non-original hard-shell case.

This is a very cool and relatively rare Fender Japan Jazzmaster featuring a Blonde finish over an ash body, paired with an anodized gold pickguard for a really striking vintage-inspired look. The visible grain through the Blonde finish gives it a more premium feel than standard solid-color JM66 models, and overall it captures the vibe of an early ’60s Jazzmaster with the consistency and craftsmanship Fender Japan is known for.

Condition

This guitar is in very good condition and I would rate it a solid 8/10. It shows light surface scratches and dings throughout from normal use. Please review all photos carefully for the most accurate representation of condition.

The guitar is 100% original with no modifications. There are no cracks, breaks, or structural issues. The neck is straight and comfortable, the original frets show virtually no wear, and the guitar plays cleanly up and down the neck with low action and accurate intonation. It has also been recently professionally set up and is ready to go.

The non-original hard-shell case is included.

Electronics & Features

One of the standout features of this model is the ash body with Blonde finish, which allows the wood grain to show through and gives the guitar a more vintage, high-end aesthetic. The anodized gold pickguard complements it perfectly and adds to the overall classic early-’60s look.

It also retains the full traditional Jazzmaster layout, including the rhythm and lead circuits, making it a great option for players who want the complete Jazzmaster experience with authentic styling and tone.

Tone & Feel

This JM66 delivers the wide, open, and articulate tone that Jazzmasters are known for. The pickups have clear highs, full lows, and a slightly scooped midrange that works great for clean playing, surf, indie, ambient textures, and classic rock.

The rhythm circuit offers a warmer, rounder tone for chords and mellow passages, while the lead circuit brings out the more cutting, dynamic side of the instrument.

The rounded C neck feels comfortable and easy to play, and the 7.25" radius keeps it firmly in vintage Fender territory. At 7 lbs 12 oz, it is nicely balanced and comfortable for extended playing.
