It uses a \u003cstrong\u003e25.5-inch scale length\u003c\/strong\u003e, the same traditional Fender scale length associated with instruments such as the Stratocaster and Telecaster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this Jazzmaster good for shoegaze?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The combination of clear single-coil pickups, floating vibrato and excellent compatibility with fuzz, delay, reverb and modulation makes the Jazzmaster format particularly well suited to shoegaze and other texture-heavy styles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is unusual about the maple fingerboard?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany Jazzmaster designs are associated with darker fingerboard woods. The maple fingerboard, black block inlays and matching black headstock give this limited-edition version a much more distinctive 1970s-influenced appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use both pickups together?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The lead circuit lets you choose the neck pickup, bridge pickup or both pickups together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the rhythm circuit use the bridge pickup?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The dedicated rhythm circuit uses the neck pickup and has its own volume and tone thumbwheel controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the floating vibrato good for chords?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Smooth pitch movement across complete chords is one of the strengths of the Jazzmaster system. It is particularly effective for surf, ambient, alternative and shoegaze playing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I fit heavier strings?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Many offset players enjoy slightly heavier string gauges, but changing substantially from the factory .009-.042 set can affect the setup. Neck relief, bridge height and intonation should be checked afterwards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I choose this or the Classic Vibe '60s Jazzmaster?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose this \u003cstrong\u003e'70s Limited Edition\u003c\/strong\u003e if you prefer its maple fingerboard, black block inlays, black headstock and distinctive Vintage Blonde appearance.
