Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
In Dark Night, the American Professional II Jazzmaster is a right-handed, six-string solidbody with an alder body, maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard. V-Mod II Jazzmaster single-coils supply the pickup platform; tap mode on the bridge pickup changes its voice, and the rhythm circuit can run both pickups in series for higher output. The Panorama tremolo handles both pronounced dives and smaller pitch movement. Fender also gives the neck a sculpted heel, rolled edges, and satin urethane finish, with 22 narrow-tall frets available.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Switching the bridge pickup between its bold tapped sound and a vintage-inspired Jazzmaster voice.
- Using the rhythm circuit when increased output from both pickups in series is required.
- Players who want tremolo pitch movement ranging from subtle warble to deep dives.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who do not want a tremolo/vibrato bridge.
- Left-handed players; this is a right-handed instrument.
