I've never known the difference (tonally) between a Fender Jazzmaster and a Fender Jaguar... So I thought I'd make a video while I figured it out for myself! Hope you enjoy this and maybe learn something too!

The Jaguar sounds like a crystal clear sound happening right in front of you, but the Jazzmaster sounds like an old memory captured on film or played through a transistor radio

Wow. Wonderfully enlightening! Thank you for a quality comparison of what we are all looking for. I loved the Jag tone in a mix as a lead/clean sound, while the JM was a bit dirty. However, when you combined a darker/dirtier guitar with a bright amp like the AC30, it really changed the complexity of the tone. The Vox really brought out the highs in an interesting and pleasing way. I'm torn because of that. I'll probably have to go and watch this again to get another listen! I'd love to hear you do some more amp comparisons! I'll def. be subscribing bro.

The opening looping was excellent. I would have liked to hear the same licks for each of the different amps at the end. Thanks for creating this video. I’m having a difficult time deciding between these two amazing offset guitars. I think it ultimately comes down to playing them both in person to make the determination. Great playing. Something in the way the Jazzmaster sounds makes me feel like it’s the better choice on a tone level.There’s a warmth and fullness in the Fender comparison that clearly comes through.

I was put onto the Jazzmaster by Norah Jones' lockdown mini concerts - I have the same Amp she plugs direct into and I just loved the "woody chunkiness" of the clean tone her Jazzmaster was putting out. After that I started to recognise the JM's distinctive "chunk" in other particular songs I loved, like "Watching The Detectives" I feel that the three guitars I have (tele, casino & mustang) are more than enough but the Jazzmaster speaks to me!

Great video. But, big but, JM Jag is VERY different from a regular Jaguar. They come with special Bare Knuckle pickups that have very low magnetic pull and under wound for low output. They are also not reverse polarity as on normal Jag so the middle position sounds different. Lastly, the removal of the jazz curcuit to me loses the warm tones possible with it. So, if you had done this with a regular Jag, it might have been a bit more helpful. But still, thanks and really nice playing.

I don't know if this will matter to anyone persay, but the Jazzmaster was made for Jazz players, but was popular in the surf rock scene instead (after they could start grabbing them cheap because it had initially flopped) and the Jaguar was made for surf rockers but instead lounged in relative obscurity until Cobain got big on one and it kinda almost became a poster guitar of *that* scene... partly because they could grab them cheap because they had initially flopped.

A lot of the classic Jaguars have very bright and jangly pickups in them, but if you change them out with some Vmods, they actually sound a lot darker and thumpy. I've also heard that changing the plastic pickguard out for a metallic pickguard can add a much darker and grungier tone.

@@Bigsbeee I’ve heard similarly really positive things about the Squier Deluxe Jazzmaster, but haven’t played one myself. Must make a mental note to keep an eye out for one next time I’m at a music store. IIRC, it doesn’t have the exact same pickups as the J Mascis one, but they’re still hotter than the standard Jazzmaster ones. I’ve heard someone say the tone is somewhere between a more traditional Jazzmaster pickup and a P90, which sounds like a winning combo to me. Oh, and I don’t think it has a floating bridge like most offset Fenders do - which is either a pro or a con, depending on your tastes. My Jaguar (idk how standard this feature is) comes with a little lever on the bridge plate that allows you to lock the bridge down to stabilize it if you’re not interested in using a whammy bar with it.

I like the Jaguar more, but I definitely like pickups that are less compressed and have more room for picking dynamic and the ability to 'breathe'. The neck on the Jazzmaster was really deep and 'throaty' sounding in a good way. I don't think either sounded very good through the Marshall amp sound. The Jaguar sounded good on all of the Fender/Vox settings. The Jazzmaster sounded good maybe 70% of the time and did it's own kind of deeper sound on the Fender/Vox sounds. Good comparison. Very helpful!

Hello…very good…one thing note when talking about offsets is the body size compared to strays an télé guitars which is bigger…hence even though a jazzmaster has the same neck scale as a strat it doesn’t sit the same way and the neck actually feels longer…the short neck on the Jag combined with the offset body actually feels very much like a telecaster imho…love them all of course but when I gravitate to my Jag it can be for this reason…that and the jangle factor is more distinctive

Fantastic, man. Thanks, I was hoping to hear them both without the typical stereotypes attached. You did that. Since you asked, I would be happy to hear you explore all those crazy knobs and switches.

Awesome video brother, I loved both tones but the jazzmaster felt more in your face and definitely a tighter. These two guitars would be awesome making some stereo tracks in an album together. I liked the jazzmaster when the gain was pushed more. Great comparison

I have the AVRI65 version of both. They both have their variety of great tones. Wouldn't want to let go of either.

I really like the clearity of the Jag's neck pick up. It's got an awesome kick and punchy tone. I thought the neck pick up on the Jazzmaster was a bit mutty. But, the middle position on the Jazzmaster was incredible and so well balanced. Yes, I do need both guitars in the end. Thanks for the video.

Great video ! Thank you ! On my CV jazzmaster, pickups sound clerear, and less muddy.

I enjoyed both! I have a Jag copy that plays very nice but it could use better pick-ups and pots
