That is a sexy finish for sure

[@TheGreenKingdom]

Beautiful color!

[@ShaneStoneOfficial]

Best looking finish Fender has ever done

[@jimmythefish]

It pains me that you can’t get it with a rosewood board.

[@windyhollow7869]

so glad that fender is (for the most part) finally staying true to the original design. i was so sick of all the simplifications and redesigns, i just want a jazzmaster haha

[@ShredAimlessly92]

For sure. They don’t have to remove all the switches and roller pots, just repurpose them for something more suited to modern players. Nobody should be looking at a Jazzmaster, with the weird bridge and all the switches, and expecting a straightforward plug-and-play experience.

[@dorianford6227]

Fender finally gave the correct modern adjustments to the jazzmaster

[@60CycleHumcast]

Yeah I think they got it right this time.

[@dorianford6227]

@@60CycleHumcast I have had the American Professional mystic sea foam green jazzmaster for almost three years now I have those pickups a solid chance but I now don’t like it

[@ThatMattGoodMusic]

Other reviewers: "okay now we got it out the box let's plug it in to this deluxe reverb, all dials at noon, and see how it sounds" Ryan: "sMeLL tEsT :D"

[@JG-ux7of]

I've never seen a video where you played with such inspiration, enthusiasm and creativity and had it flow effortlessly! That is what a truly special guitar is supposed to do, that Jazzmaster is your excalibur my friend! Congratulations again!

[@BoltRM]

LOVED the music. He needs to create an album with a good bit of similar music as a downloadable for Patreon or donors! 🎸🎶

[@kentaylor8004]

I just got one, in Dark Night, and absolutely love it. Oh, the last guitar I bought new was a 1972 Gibson SG. Nice arsenal. 50 years from now I’ll buy my third.

[@mikeygabbard9268]

Mustang Saddles now, baby. You better tune your Mustang down.

[@sassycat]

I think Fender hit a home run with this line.

[@markaochoa2017]

I really looked at the entire line, and I think so too. Yea the price went up a little bit, but I think they made a lot of great small but necessary changes. Eyeing that pine telecaster.

[@ShredAimlessly92]

Honestly, I was ready to just trash on the blue/black burst and joke about the line looking bland, but I can’t get over how amazing these things sound. Every video I watch makes me super excited to try one myself.

[@markaochoa2017]

ShredAimlessly92 one thing that makes me excited to try Em out is how everyone says how they feel. Will be interesting to see how they hold up against the reviews.

[@ShredAimlessly92]

@@markaochoa2017 The neck finish is probably the same matte/satin finish they used on the American Ultras, so I imagine it’s gonna feel stellar. But that Jazzmaster dive bomb tremolo is gonna be wild to try.

[@sassycat]

I only wish that the Miami Blue Tele came in a rosewood board version.

[@henrystewart3882]

I am kinda sad they didn’t include a jaguar in this line!

[@witchfindergeneralelectric8758]

Delighted for you Ryan, you're one of the best and most original of the guitar KZbinrs, really happy Fender have taken notice of your work. Stunning guitar too. Enjoy it!

[@phelipehulk]

Finally fender releases a jazzmaster with both 22 frets AND the original rhythm circuit on it. You can look up, theres no model currently avaliable with both of those features. Its either one or the other. Took them way too long but better late than never.

[@simonfinch9277]

Now let's hope they can get Jaguars right

[@ericlayton8888]

That’s awesome! I’ve never heard of a JM with 22 frets

[@veitchy88]

Apparently the “rhythm circuit” is actually a series switch. It does give a deeper/darker tone so one should be able to approximate some of the tones. Alternatively, it shouldn’t be that hard to rewire it into a rhythm circuit either.

[@Cadillac500]

I just want this one with the fretboard radius of the American Ultra.

[@tricko2286]

I got the Am Pro 1 and don’t miss the rhythm circuit at all. Just turn tone to 5 instead.

[@nedlongley2997]

I recently went in to a guitar shop geared up to finally buy a strat and ended up walking out with this exact guitar. Such beautiful tone and just feels amazing to play. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this vid and seeing you froth over it and knowing the exact same feeling.

[@joecarp8302]

I just got this exact guitar, surf green colour under the Christmas tree thanks to wifey. She even included colour matching Fender cord to boot. Your review is bang on. It had been on my wish list forever since it is one of the best looking guitars I'd laid eyes on. I can't believe how it stays in tune despite plenty of tremolo use. The sounds I can get out of it, wow. A true pleasure to play.

[@ScaloraProductions]

Thank you for this video! This is one of the videos that made me buy this guitar. I love how you were just exploring the guitar with us. Also, it made me much better understand my guitar! I also watched your other videos on this guitar and it made me appreciate the guitar even more.

[@jsurfinreverbchristmassurf3560]

I'm happy for you. Took me 60 years of my life to afford one. Did not know I needed one till I watched top Surfer guitarist on KZbin a few years ago. Got that all American original. Put your best Reverb on that beautiful instrument. Play surf till the cows come home.

[@silvioschmidt5346]

Really sweet to see the genuine happiness about the guitar. Congrats!

[@Witchcraft467]

That is a sweet sounding guitar. Very happy for you! Enjoy and then enjoy some more!

[@rob28781]

Well done Ryan, that Jazzmaster is B-E-A-utiful!! Well I was looking through the release that’s the exact one that caught my eye. I was intrigued by the finish and series mode rhythm circuit. This Jazzmaster is way out of my price point, but it’s definitely something I’d consider as that one off special purchase. Great job on the review! 🙌

[@nathanschad8048]

I’m in love with that guitar. Just got my squier JMJM this week as an anniversary gift. Never played a Jazzmaster and saw it and said how much I loved it, and wife surprised me and bought it. All I can say about the JMJM is, Jazzmasters are now my favorite. Wow. Edit: super dive awesome!

[@Louis_Velliotes]

Way stoked for you brother, you earned it with all the work on your channel. That is a sick Jazzmaster for shizzle. I have owned 2 , and American and a Japanese, and this thing sounds fantastic. Congrats again on the beautiful git!

[@bnok85]

I have to say that you're more than worthy of this instrument! You rock it very well, and I'd like to see more content with it. Keep playing!

[@bruceregister]

I am happy for you Ryan you earned it with all the great videos you put out. I enjoy watching all of them. Have run with your new guitar.

[@NickMatzorkis]

Received the guitar yesterday. Absolutely love it. Thanks for the great review. Would not have purchased it if not for your unboxing video. Fender owes you one. Well, guess you already got it! ;) Keep up the good work!

[@ThatMattGoodMusic]

That's super nice! Hardware looks and sounds excellent. Really glad you got this guitar and made some really thoughtful observations towards the end too.

[@Lael128]

Bro I’m super happy for you. The way you’re feeling there is how I felt after leading worship at my church three years ago, when suddenly, the leaders gifted me with a 2017 American Pro Jazzmaster. It’s by far my go to guitar everyday.

[@DanH-]

I watched you unbox this fine guitar (well sorta) un’case it actually. You had me crakcking up through a lot of the video. Anyway I’m so glad that Fender was so kind to send this nice guitar. I hope that 2 years later it still brings joy to you playing. Enjoy

[@Steven_SK]

Nice score there Ryan! That is a beautiful thing! That whole line is awesome from what I've seen so far. Saving up as of today....

[@SfordRog]

Cool sounds and good playing! Love that thing you did picking behind the bridge while wiggling the bar.

[@NicholasGreenwood]

Tried this guitar out at my local GC and fell in love with it! Just ordered the Miami Blue color! Can't wait!

[@scottmeli]

Ryan, I’m happy for you! I’m glad you chose the Jazzmaster because it may be Fender’s most versatile model. Everything about the design of the Jazzmaster is unique. Your review answered all the questions one may have about the guitar. I have a Miami Blue model coming soon, thank you!

[@barkingkade7407]

Easily the best model, and the less understood model from Fender, in my opinion Can't wait to get one someday aaaaaaaa

[@highseasmarinediaz493]

It couldn't have happened to a better man. See good guys do win!

[@TommySurfink]

Wow, that Jazzmaster just sounds and looks stunning! I was never the biggest fan of maple necks one these but it looks perfect. I agree with you on the neck pickup too. I love the vibe and airyness I can get from my JM on either both pu's or neck position. Enjoy man, you deserve it for sure!

[@billnelson9413]

I’m thrilled for you! Nice jam at the end too!

[@charlie-obrien]

That is a beautiful color and finish, the one thing you can say about an American Fender is that there won't be any need for improvements and mods. Complete package right out of the box. Of course you would have to sell 5 CV's to get up the $$ for it.

[@sgd5k292]

I know this is a year late, but just a few hours ago, your video popped up and was the direct reason I just placed an order for a Dark Night version. Thanks for an excellent video. Subscribed

[@WinstonBrownstone]

Thanks 🙏 for this amazing review! Loved the fact you went through the different settings & sounds. It’s a dream guitar of mine - especially in this color. Plus I agree with your insight at the end - in the grand scheme of things it’s worth the price !

[@fastj1962]

Thank you for showing us this guitar, just got mine..... amazing.

[@antoniojimenez4407]

“ or maybe I’m trippin “ oh my god I love that 😭

[@400_billion_suns]

Stunning guitar, and it sounds proper too! I have an American Pro strat of the last gen and it's phenomenal, with the soft rolled fretboard edges like yours. Looks like the new Pro II's are awesome across the range.

[@ozwaldmusic]

Making that sound great! Love all of the innovation. Fender is such a sick company. I built a custom mjt thing years ago cause fender didn’t really offer what I wanted 10 years ago but now if I was buying my first Jazzmaster I’d have so many incredible choices. That body color against the maple especially holding it an angle looks so glorious. Such clever pickup wiring choices and cool that instead of being jaded that everyone mods their bridges they embraced it and improved the trem system too which clearly no one has really done until now. So so sick. I’ve never been a huge fan of the bigger modern tuners but somehow they even made those look a little classier. Plus they probably actually stay in tune and don’t run into the high e string issue I always have with my JM

[@darrellm3410]

Thats a beautiful guitar. I love jazzmasters. I am glad you got what you wanted. I can tell you really love that guitar... thats what matters most when getting a guitar. If you love it then you will play it. Thats my way of thinking about it. Your playing has greatly improved lately....

[@Probablyshouldnthave]

that color looks way better in this video than it does from the fender web page photos

[@brianrollins7275]

I’m very happy for you Ryan. I hope you enjoy the hell out of that thing. I’m usually a budget guy myself but I did splurge on a Fender American Performer Telecaster and I can say it was not a bad decision. It’s now my favorite guitar but only because of how it plays and sounds. Not just because it’s made in USA. Enjoy that Jazzmaster and thanks for the demo. Take care

[@geoffstorey800]

I am happy for you but also very jealous. That thing is so nice. Congrats man I also use to always play my Jazzmaster in the bridge position, but now mainly the neck. It sounds so much fuller and rich

[@60CycleHumcast]

If I’m playing a humbucker guitar I usually ride the bridge. The neck of a Jazzmaster is just so sweet sounding

[@scottjacobmartens8852]

Nice one buddy! Great unboxing video. I just ordered one of these in the classic 3 colour Sunburst. I can't wait! :D

[@ClairvoyantEntertainment]

I cant believe the amount of different sounds you can get from this guitar! humbucker and single coil tones in 1 guitar, plus the vintage tap on the bridge pickup is nuts!

[@ArtDonna84]

Fantastic surfs up memories. I ordered one after watching your demo and awesome guitar work. Love you stuff. Absolutely inspiring. 👍🏼

I m thinking of bying one too.Hiw has it been so far after 7 months?

[@JBM_71]

Well, coming from a non jazz master player, it looks and sounds great. You sure demonstrated real reverence towards it. And to be given it by Fender..... Good for you. Who wouldn't want to be blessed in such a way. Happy for you! Perhaps you give one of your others away and pass on the blessing. 😊

[@clayteasouth]

I have been waiting to buy a new jazzmaster for 3 years. I ordered the same one you received. The dark night colour is nice, but my gut feeling was no. Jazzmaster is surf green and sits correctly with me. It seems to go so nicely with the maple. Beautiful guitar all around.

[@ninji522]

Discovered you channel from the Donner guitar review as that will be my first guitar (I have a bass, don't play much, but I definitely have one) and it was a great review. I wanted to find a vid of you reviewing a high end guitar for comparison and this was also a great review. I now want everything in my life to be painted that color, that is a work of art. I'm happy for you, don't know you, new to the channel, but I'm happy for you all the same. And surf rock doesn't get enough love for how many straight bangers came out of that genre so big on you for strummin some, subbed!!!
