Fender Custom Shop Dennis Galuszka Masterbuilt Jazzmaster (Sonic Blue)

Fender Custom Shop Dennis Galuszka Masterbuilt Jazzmaster (Sonic Blue) Overview

This Jazzmaster Masterbuilt is a one-off from The Fender Custom Shop crafted by Master Builder Dennis Gaulszka. Dennis took the design of a '70s Jazzmaster and built a guitar that didn't exist but he felt should have. He put on a 3-bolt Micro Tilt neck on the Jazzmaster to help increase the pitch of angle of the strings to increase downward pressure on the he bridge - a mod that Jazzmaster players used to accomplish by inserting shims underneath the neck join. '70s details include the large headstock with '70s decal and bullet rod. The Jazzmaster single-coil pickups replicate the specs of genuine '59 Jazzmaster pickups. This pickup voicing is only available on by Fender Custom Shop Masterbuilt guitars. Dennis says the pickups sound unbelievable, especially in the middle position "that hits you in the face like a big soundfoot." Dennis Galuszka began building high-end acoustic guitars during his 13 years as a cabinetmaker, combining his passions for music and woodworking. As a self-taught drummer, it was a fateful audition with one of the Fender master builders that led to a job interview (and a steady gig). Hired as an apprentice, he was promoted to master builder in 1999. Galuszka has since built instruments for many influential players, including country legend Buck Owens and jazz master Robben Ford.
