American Vintage ‘62 Jaguar®
As the distinctive early-’60s offspring of the equally distinctive Jazzmaster® guitar, the Jaguar guitar became an enduring favorite that has successfully spanned many decades and genres, be it ’60s surf, ’70s punk, ’80s new wave, ’90s grunge and beyond ...
This Fender design classic paired brighter pickups with a shorter (24”) scale length. The trio of sliding pickup selector switches, rotary volume wheels on the upper bout, and chrome hardware and tremolo lock are all signature Jaguar traits, and the removable Fender Mute is a built-in string-damping device created with surf bands in mind.
