This 1964 Candy Apple Red 'custom color 'Jazzmaster weighs 8.10 lbs. and has a nut width of just under 1 11/16 inches and a scale length of 25 1/2 inches. Solid alder body, one-piece maple neck with a very comfortable medium profile. Veneer rosewood fretboard with 21 frets and inlaid clay dot position markers. Matching Candy Apple Red maple headstock with decal with Fender "Spaghetti" logo. Individual single-line Kluson Deluxe tuners with oval metal buttons stamped on the underside "D-169400 / Patent No.". Four-bolt neck plate with serial number between the top two screws. The neck is stamped "4 DEC 63B". Two hot Jazzmaster pickups (large white rectangular six-polepiece pickups) with very outputs of 8.36k and 7.73k. Three-layer white / black / white 'green' celluloid pickguard with thirteen screws. Two controls (master volume, master tone) with white plastic knobs, plus three-way pickup selector switch and jack socket on the treble side of the pickguard, two roller knobs (volume, tone) plus two-way circuit selector (rhythm/lead) slide switch on the bass side of the pickguard. Jazzmaster bridge and integrated tailpiece and tremolo. The guitar has been expertly re-fretted with the correct gauge fretwire. There is an area of wear on the back (approximately 4 x 1 1/4 inches) and several other places on the back and sides of the body where that paint has chipped off. All said, this totally original pre-CBS guitar (apart from the re-fret) is in excellent plus (8.75) condition. Complete with the original tremolo arm. Housed in its original Fender cream Tolex case with black leather ends and dark orange plush lining (8.75).
