Yosemite single-coil pickups
Created for the American Performer series, the Yosemite single-coil pickups found on this Jazzmaster deliver the clarity and detail vintage Jazzmaster tone is known for. They’re wound slightly hotter than vintage JM pickups and feature flat-staggered pole pieces for exceptionally balanced output across all strings.

Strat-style synchronized tremolo bridge
We’ve seen a lot of different Jazzmasters, some with the classic offset vibrato tailpiece and some with hardtails. It’s not often we see them with a Strat-style synchronized tremolo, but that’s what you have here on the American Performer Jazzmaster. Complete with bent saddles, this vibrato gives you more bending range than a traditional Jazzmaster. If you love vibrato and always wished your Jazzmaster could bend just a bit more, then this may be the guitar for you.
