Full Description
View Full DescriptionWired for any genre
You cannot tie the Jaguar down to just one genre. Some guitars specialise in their style and components to shine in a particular category, but the Jaguar is an instrument that has the versatility to adapt. It's loaded with two special "60th anniversary" single coils that seamlessly recreate the original voicings. You have access to that sweet, glassy twang which Fender do so well. The vintage inflection of these coils gives every note presence and definition and is articulate even when pushed with copious amounts of overdrive.
Rather than a 3-way selector like most guitars with two pickups, the Jaguar feature two separate circuits: lead and rhythm. Switch between these to explore an enormous soundscape, from biting lead attack to luscious and unctuous rhythm flows. Dial in the master tone and volume controls to sculpt your sound even further. And if that wasn't enough, there's a bass cut "strangle" switch to instantly remove some of the lower frequencies, giving your soaring solos the emphasis they deserve.
Original '60s style
This is a celebration of a superbly unique guitar. Fender have made sure the 60th anniversary edition gives you the same experience as if you stepped back in time and bought an original. Of course, it's got the ingenious wiring, but it also looks incredible. The eye-catching shape of the Jaguar demands audience attention, and its alder body and rounded "C" shaped neck gives you the genuine experience found in the rare originals. Other appointments like the vintage F button tuners, engraved neckplate and Jaguar tremolo with adjustable string mute complete the impeccable appearance of this limited edition.
It was built to play fast
Just like the original, the 60th Anniversary Jaguar is built for to bring out your best. The comfortable "1966 Jaguar" neck shape houses a rosewood fretboard to treat your fingers. Smooth, slick and rapidly responsive. It's everything you want from a fingerboard. Especially if you're looking for vintage feel, as this gorgeous rosewood board sports a classic 7.25" radius for a more curved feel. Paired with its shorter scale length, chording is a dream on this surface. Quick transitions and fluid progressions are all made effortless on the meticulously shaped neck and board.
Get straight to gigs
Included with this special edition of the Jaguar is a hardshell case with an engraved 60th anniversary logo, so you can keep this unique guitar safe on the road. There are no excuses, Fender built this panache-packed guitar to be shown off on stage, and the quality case makes sure you're ready to rock as soon as you pick it up.
