List of American made Jazzmasters

Post by dangayle » Sun Mar 03, 2024 1:41 pm

Do all Jazzmasters made in the USA say "American" in them? There are the AVRI, American Professionals, American Specials, etc., but are there others that I'm missing?

Custom shop & mod shop.
I have nothing to offer anybody, except my own confusion?

These don't necessarily mean made in the USA; it depends on the guitar.
