🔥 Midnight Menace: Ultra-Rare 2020 Fender Japan Limited Edition Noir Jazzmaster 🔥
This guitar doesn’t whisper — it prowls.
Introducing the 2020 Fender Japan Limited Edition Noir Jazzmaster — a sleek, dark, and highly desirable factory masterpiece that captures the soul of classic Jazzmaster cool with a modern Japanese twist. Dressed head-to-toe in a deep, mysterious Noir finish, this limited-run beauty looks like it was born for dimly lit stages and late-night recording sessions. The rich black gloss lets every curve and contour stand out while giving it that stealthy, all-business attitude that turns heads the moment you pull it out of the case.
Built with Fender Japan’s legendary attention to detail, this Jazzmaster delivers the iconic offset body ergonomics, floating tremolo system, and that signature sparkling, jangly tone Jazzmasters are famous for. The neck is comfortable and fast, the pickups are articulate and dynamic — rolling from glassy cleans and chimey rhythms to snarling overdriven leads with just a twist of the knobs. It’s versatile enough for indie, alt-rock, shoegaze, surf, or anything in between, yet distinctive enough to inspire new sounds.
After years of real gig and studio use, this example is in very good condition overall. It has clearly been rocked — showing honest moderate playwear including a few small dings and dents that tell its story. There’s one touched-up ding on the back bottom edge, some scratches on the pickguard, and a little corrosion on the hardware — all signs of a guitar that’s been out making music rather than sitting on a shelf. Despite the battle scars, it remains clean, structurally sound, and highly playable.
Best of all, it has been professionally set up and dialed in for optimal tone and playability right out of the gate. The action is smooth and low, intonation is spot-on, and it rings with that lively, responsive Jazzmaster character players chase.
These 2020 Limited Edition Noir Jazzmasters were produced in small numbers and have become increasingly sought-after by collectors and tone enthusiasts who appreciate Fender Japan’s superior craftsmanship during this era. They rarely surface in this kind of played-but-well-cared-for condition.
If you’re hunting for a Jazzmaster that looks dangerous, sounds alive, and has already proven it can handle the stage, this Noir limited edition is ready for its next chapter with a player who will keep rocking it hard.
Serious inquiries only. Comes with a quality gig bag or case. Message for additional detailed photos, a quick video demo of the sound and playability, or shipping arrangements.

- Neck is perfectly straight with no truss-rod issues.
- Intonation is spot-on.
- Professionally set up with low action and new American-made strings.
- All frets are dressed, leveled, crowned (if needed), and all frets on all guitars are polished to shine like new with no divots.
Return Policy, Restocking Fees & No Tire-Kicking Policy
We follow Reverb’s 7-day return policy. However:

We record demo videos of every guitar before shipping to document exact condition and performance. Additional photos, measurements, or in-hand descriptions are available upon request prior to purchase.
Minor adjustments and tweaks to a set up (for example to correct a slight buzz or truss-rod tweak) are normal after shipping due to carrier mishandling the package, climate & atmospheric changes, especially when moving from South Florida to colder or less humid environments.

If minor cosmetic marks, tiny imperfections, or the possibility of a post-shipping setup tweak makes you uncomfortable, please do not buy.
