MIJ Traditional / Hybrid series Jazzmaster Help!
Posted: Sun Mar 17, 2024 1:49 pm
hey, haven't posted here since like 2002 or something but i'm really in need of some help or resources to nail down exactly what paint options and specs are on the various hybrid and traditional MIJ models.. if anyone knows a place that documents these i'd really appreciate it!
I came really close to getting a hybrid 60's JM (i think) recently.. was in Charcoal Frost Metallic which is gorgeous.. but had a massive ding on it.
now i'm trying to figure out, what years these have been made.. do the colours differ from year to year, or between the hybrid and the hybrid II (and assume a traditional 1 and 2?).. or if Fender Japan ever knock out a JM66B in any other colours than sunburst? should i expect to see new colours in 2025, or later this year?
i'm seeing plenty of sunburst, Ice Blue, and Black at the moment from these models, but nothing "special" like Charcoal Frost, Sherwood Green, Burgundy Mist etc
ideally i need the block and binding, and singe coils (not the wide-range pickups) coz this will be my first "ultimate" JM besides the various Squiers i have. hopefully there's one out there. (and Fender don't have block & bound necks as an option on their Mod Shop!? - what are they thinking?!)
cheers.
