help Nash Guitars JM-63 FAQ
Is the Nash JM-63 based on a Jazzmaster or a Jaguar?
It is based on the Fender Jazzmaster format, with the longer 25.5-inch scale normally associated with that model. A traditional Jaguar instead uses a shorter 24-inch scale and narrower pickup design.
What pickups does the Nash JM-63 use?
JM-63 builds commonly use Lollar Jazzmaster-style pickups. These are broad single coils, not Gibson-style P-90s, despite the two designs having similarly wide covers.
Why does the JM-63 use a roller bridge?
A roller bridge lets the strings move more smoothly when the offset vibrato is operated. Nash uses it to reduce the binding and string-jumping complaints associated with some vintage Jazzmaster bridge setups.
Does the Nash JM-63 have the traditional Jazzmaster rhythm circuit?
Nash specifications can vary, and some JM-63 builds simplify the original Fender control layout. Check the exact guitar for the upper-bout rollers and switch if the separate rhythm circuit matters to you.
