1980 Greco Super Real JM700 Jazzmaster 3-Tone Sunburst Ash, Pre-JV, MIJ, Japan, FujiGen

Presenting for sale, a 1980 Greco Super Real JM700 Jazzmaster boasting a vibrant 3-Tone Sunburst finish on a sen ash body, coupled with a maple neck and Indian rosewood fretboard.

This Greco model holds special significance as the direct predecessor to the Fender Japan instrument line. 

Produced at the FujiGen factory two years before securing the contract to manufacture authentic Fender instruments, the JM700 is an exceptionally rare find.

Distinguishing features of the JM700 include an ash body, a V-shaped neck profile carve, silver Rhythm Circuit rollers, and a wide bevel tortoise pickguard—setting it apart from early Fender Japan production. Noteworthy is Greco's impeccable recreation of the vintage 60’s 3-Tone Sunburst finish.

In terms of condition, this JM showcases a well-worn charm, suggesting a history as a trusted and go-to gigging companion. Despite numerous cosmetic imperfections, the guitar remains 100% structurally sound and exudes vintage appeal. The soft V-shape neck and fretboard are in excellent condition, retaining ample fret height for a fantastic playing experience. The hardware, though tarnished, contributes to the guitar's vintage aesthetic. The original tremolo system has been modified with a Japanese Fender variant. The electronics appear to be original, with the exception of the upgraded Switchcraft input jack. Finally, the vintage-accurate Jazzmaster pickups deliver the sought-after charm and chimey tones characteristic of these guitars.

Included is a Fender gig bag.

It’s been professionally setup with a fresh set of 10-46 strings and has undergone a deep clean of the body, fretboard, frets and internals, this JM is glowing!

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch and thanks for looking!
