Critic Reviews

The Big Review: Fender Noventa Jazzmaster

guitar.com

Fender's Noventa Jazzmaster boldly reimagines the classic design, swapping traditional tones for a fresh take with P-90-style pickups. While it delivers a versatile sound that appeals to fans of both Stratocasters and P-90s, it falls short for Jazzmaster purists craving that iconic midrange warmth. Additionally, its weight may be a turn-off for some, and grounding issues mar the initial experience. The Noventa is intriguing and offers a unique blend, but it’s a guitar that might leave traditionalists wanting more.
