2018 Fender Player Series Jazzmaster | Overview and Alternative/Grunge tones

Hello YouTube friends!

Today I get to show off a brand spanking new Fender Player Series Jazzmaster! (more like Jazzblaster)

This one is in a beautiful # tone sunburst with a HH configuration, and I love it!

The specs are readily available, but in case you don't know them I quickly go through them in the introduction of the video.

When searching for demo's of this guitar, I noticed that none of them really showed any tones that I would look for if I were in the market for a new guitar coming from a grunge/alternative perspective, so I made my own demo!

My thoughts in a nutshell: Great guitar! These guitars are a lot of bang for your buck, and after a setup (as most guitars should have upon purchase) plays amazingly. I love the satin finished neck, its a very comfortable shape and plays fast! I made the guitar a new nut and shielded the cavities, which while in a perfect world I wouldn't have to do, but is honestly something I do with all my guitars anyway so wasn't off putting for me. I highly recommend this guitar for any genre, but it really fits the bill if you're looking for a versatile jazzblaster! 9/10

As always, I don't own all of the music played for demo purposes, so all rights go to their respective owners!

Check out some of the tones in the video (use headphones for best sound). This was recorded using the low normal channel of my AC30C2 mic’d with a GRIT mic and an sm57. Please remember to like, comment and/or subscribe! Thanks everyone for watching and supporting the channel!
