Fender Jazzmaster® pickups are often assumed to be only useful for surf music. They also produce an excellent range of tones for blues and rock n' roll as evidenced by legendary Jazzmaster® guitar players including Mickey Baker, Don Wilson, Nels Cline, J. Mascis and Thurston Moore.

The Lollar Jazzmaster® style pickups have a tone that falls somewhere between a Strat's sparkle and chime and a Les Paul's midrange and bass. Its fat tone comes from the Jazzmaster's® large surface area as compared with a Strat pickup, which has a more focused, bell-like tone. The detailed treble the Jazzmaster® gets is partly due to its single-coil design and the way its rod magnets are used as individual pole pieces.

To voice our Jazzmaster® pickup we referenced the original pickups in Jason Lollar’s ‘59 Jazzmaster®. The result is a pickup true to the unique and recognizable Jazzmaster® tone, but with a more percussive low end and clearer, more articulate midrange than modern stock Jazzmaster® pickups. Our bridge pickup is also hotter for better volume and tone balance between neck and bridge positions.
