The Fender Musicmaster electric guitar was the first Fender made in 3/4 scale. Design work first began in 1955 and production started just a year later. There were a few major redesigns without the Musicmaster production, the first in 1959 and then in 1964 when the neck was redesigned using the Fender Mustang as a model. The Musicmaster continued to be produced until 1982.

The Fender Jaguar is an electric guitar which was introduced in 1962. Whether the designers of the Jaguar had intended the instrument to be used for Surf music or if it was a further attempt to break into the Jazz guitar market (as was the case with its predecessor the Jazzmaster) remains a topic of dispute among Jaguar aficionados. Nevertheless, the Jaguar quickly caught on in the emerging surf music scene, joining the Jazzmaster, Mosrite and Stratocaster as the guitars most associated with the style. They both became popular again in the 1990s when they were used by a number of indie rock bands like Nirvana, Sonic Youth, and Dinosaur Jr.
