Vintage Reissue (AVRI) 1962 Jazzmaster was produced in the following colors: Three-Color Sunburst Olympic White Black Ocean Turquoise Surf Green Ice Blue Metallic There were also limited edition variations of the American Vintage Reissue Jazzmaster available, most notably the Thin-Skin models. These models were identical to the normal production AVRI models, with the exception of the thickness of the finish (due in part to a thinner, nitrocellulose sealer), as well as additional colors and matching headstocks (though this option was not present on all Thin Skins). Some available colors: Aztec Gold Metallic Burgundy Mist Metallic Fiesta Red Shell Pink Sherwood Green Metallic Sonic Blue Their pickguards came in Mint Green or Brown Shell colors. Jazzmasters featured bound necks with dot inlays in 1965, with block pearloid inlays from 1966 until the end of their original run in 1977; the headstocks were also larger ("CBS-style") in this era. They have featured matching headstocks (headstocks painted the same color as the body) at several points throughout the guitar's history. Matched-headstock versions generally fetch a higher price. In 2012, Fender replaced the AVRI line with the American Vintage (AV) series. The AVRI 1962 Jazzmaster was subsequently replaced with the AV 1965 Jazzmaster. The current American Vintage Jazzmaster comes standard in the following colors: Three-Color Sunburst Olympic White This series has also been offered in limited quantities in some of the following colors: Aztec Gold Ice Blue Metallic As with the AVRI '62 Jazzmaster, Thin Skin models are available, also in additional Custom Colors, including: Aztec Gold Firemist Silver Ocean Turquoise Like their vintage counterparts, pickguards come in Mint Green or Brown Shell colors, depending on the color.
