Originality:All parts appear to be original except the strings. I added foam underneath the pickups to gain some height adjustment but left the original foam in place.

Condition:No breaks, repairs, or changed parts. There is plenty of finish wear giving it that vintage look. Its got all the feel and tone of a well loved vintage guitar but plays like a professional instrument should. There is a small chip out of the nut on the bass side but it doesnt affect the nut slot.

Playability:Very good. Ive just completed a full set up and inspection. This one plays nicely with a working truss rod (.002 relief) and strong pickups. There is some fret wear but I found it comfortable to play and not currently in need of a refret. All electronics function properly after cleaning and lubrication.

Notes:Just in from the family of the original owner! This vibey 1960 Fender Jazzmaster has been played but not abused. I was told the original owner passed in the early 1990s and the guitar hasnt been played since then. It was dirty and far out of adjustment when I got it but everything cleaned up nicely. I was shocked to see that it still had its original hang tag with serial number, old string packet, original case, and killer tooled leather strap. Im confident youll love this uncirculated, professionally playable with original parts 1960 Fender Jazzmaster with original Sunburst finish!
