Squier J Mascis Signature Jazzmaster Vintage White Indian Laurel Fretboard

Squier J Mascis Jazzmaster – Squier® honors alt-rock godfather and Dinosaur Jr. leader J Mascis with a striking new Jazzmaster® guitar model that delivers as much massive sound and performance as its namesake. The pickups, hardware and finish are all specified by Mascis himself for tremendous tone and value. Only one instrument is good enough to bear his signature on his headstock—the J Mascis Jazzmaster

Features

• Maple neck with “C”-shaped profile and 21-fret rosewood fingerboard
• Two single-coil Jazzmaster pickups
• Classic dual-circuit design (“lead”/”rhythm”) with volume and tone controls for each
• Three-way toggle pickup switch, two-way slide “lead”/”rhythm” switch
• Adjusto-Matic™ bridge with vintage-style “floating” tremolo tailpiece
• Gold anodized aluminum pickguard, vintage-style tuners

You’ll be supremely psyched to have the Squier J Mascis Jazzmaster in your hands — many guitarists certainly are. This Squier pays tribute to the alt/indie rock founding father, J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr. Mascis certainly took the instrument to a new place with his feedback-drenched, distortion-laden rocking. And this new signature model pays affectionately ear-splitting homage to Mascis, giving the instrument a modern makeover for fans who’ve been clamoring for such a model.

Adds Mascis-requested mods to the already flexible Jazzmaster

With its vintage-inspired vintage white finish, ’60s headstock, and gold anodized pickguard, the Squier J Mascis Jazzmaster features the cosmetics, pickups, and hardware specified by Mascis himself. Such cool mods include an Adjusto-Matic bridge, a slightly wider nut width, and a satin-finished neck. The Dinosaur roar comes from dual single-coil pickups with punchy midrange emphasis, and the barrage of controls the Jazzmaster has always been known for — a lead circuit with 3-position toggle switch and volume/tone knobs, plus a rhythm circuit with separate volume/tone controls.
