Re: What defines a Jazzmaster: A Hypothesis
Yes, it is!
Although i’ve enjoyed the whimsical direction this thread has taken at times, i can’t help getting frustrated as well. As illustrated by the post above (which i realise is tongue-in-cheek), the camp saying “it’s a Jazzmaster if fender calls it one” are taking the issue too literally, and missing the point. Why on earth would someone - in OSG especially - start a thread asking which guitars fender calls Jazzmaster?
Perhaps if the original thread title had been “what defines the aesthetics and sound of a Jazzmaster” we would have avoided all this!
Cheers!

Re: What defines a Jazzmaster: A Hypothesis
If we look at this through a taxonomic lense, it all makes sense, we just need to define the boundaries of each level of the hierarchy.
Kingdom: instrument
Phylum: guitar
Class: electric
Order: Offset
Family: Jazzmaster
Genus: fender
Species: Fender American Vintage ‘65 jazzmaster
anyone want to take a swing?
