Chromeface,
That Jazzmaster was purchased new from Elderly Music in 2010/2011.
That is exactly how it came from the factory, pretty sure my Son paid around $1400 for it (I think it's a 1966 reissue, but I'm not sure as I'm not an "Offset" guy). LOL
To date my Son has added a Mastery Bridge, locking tuners, Seymour Duncan pups and I think he did something to the tone circuits. The guitar has great tone, but then it would as my Son keeps it strung with 12s!

The guitar is indeed a '66 reissue but for some reasons Fender Japan decided to put a twist on the design by adding an early '60s spaghetti decal instead of the correct-period gold transitional logo.

Chromeface, indeed you are correct about the headstock decal.
That being said, it's a beautiful instrument for sure.

If I ever do decide I need another guitar it will have to have P90 pickups.
