- Olympic White
- Lake Placid Blue
- Candy Apple Red
- Black
- semi-transparent blonde
Vintage Jazzmasters have been seen in most of the common Fender Custom Colors of the era, and as Fender would sometimes paint guitars in any shade the owner requested, one cannot list the full range of colors made.
The American Vintage Re-Issue (AVRI) Jazzmaster was produced in the following colors:
- 3-Color Sunburst
- Olympic White
- Black
- Ocean Turquoise
- Surf Green
- Ice Blue Metallic
Their pickguards come in Mint Green or Brown Shell colors. Jazzmasters featured bound necks 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 and are currently not in production, except for the special J. Mascis edition.
Colors of the signature editions:
- J. Mascis - Purple sparkle
- Elvis Costello - Natural Brown
- Lee Ranaldo - Transparent Blue
- Thurston Moore - Transparent Green.

“He hath ribbons of all the colors i’the rainbow.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“All our Concord waters have two colors at least; one when viewed at a distance, and another, more proper, close at hand.... Walden is blue at one time and green at another, even from the same point of view. Lying between the earth and the heavens, it partakes of the color of both.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The light is there, and colors surround us. However, if there were no light nor colors in our own eye, we wouldn’t perceive such things outside of us.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
