Let This Guitar-Shaped Coin Jazz up Your Collection Of Music-Themed Coins
The Fender® Jazzmaster guitar was introduced in 1958 and, as the name suggests, was aimed at jazz guitarists. Though it never really took off with its intended audience, it did land well with surf-rockers of the early 1960s. The Jazzmaster soon became the go-to axe for New Wave and underground artists like Elvis Costello, the Cars’ Ric Ocasek, the E Street Band’s Nils Lofgren, and Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore and Lee Ranaldo popularizing the guitar with alternative artists in the late ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s. This amazing Fender Jazzmaster guitar-shaped legal tender coin can be your next choice when you augment the music wing of your collection!
Commemorative Coin Replicates Jazzmaster’s Original Design
Struck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.99% silver, this officially licensed coin replicates the Jazzmaster’s longer scale compared to Fender’s similar-shaped Jaguar guitar. Whereas the Jaguar had a shorter 24-inch scale, the Jazzmaster measured 25½ inches. Though they looked very much alike, their sounds were different. The Jazzmaster has a little more body and warmth to its sound, as well as a wider frequency range and slightly hotter output, whereas the Jaguar sounds more focused, brighter, and twangier.
If you’re old enough to remember the original marketing campaign for the Jazzmaster, Fender launched it with the slogan, “You won’t part with yours either” in ads that appeared in the late ’50s and early ’60s that were created to appeal specifically to teenagers. When the Jazzmaster was heard being played by the Ventures on their 1960 hit single “Walk-Don’t Run,” success was assured after the tune went on to become one of the first surf songs to crack the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at No. 2 that summer.
Don’t Get “Strung” Out By This Coin’s Low Limited Edition
