The coolest, most interesting, and under-rated guitars made by the fender guitar company. Though not a guitar for the masses, like the telecaster or stratocaster, the jazzmaster is superior in so many aspects (tone, playability, design, versatility, etc.)
The jazzmaster has acquired a cult following proving that the instrument was only meant for only the coolest guitar players and collectors such as J Mascic (Dinosaur Jr.), Tom Verlaine (Television), Thurston Moore (Sonic Youth), Belinda Butcher and Kevin Shields (My Bloody Valentine), and other super talented guitarists.

Any type of fender jazzmaster guitar with upgrades or modifications that enhances the already superb sound of a stock jazzmaster.
This is commonly done by changing the soapbar pickups with Telecaster Deluxe humbuckers. Originally created by Sonic Youth guitarist Lee Ranaldo around 1996. It was a 1966-1975 vintage sunburst jazzmaster, which was stolen in 1999. A new jazzblaster then had to be made.
