1960s Jaguar Blonde Color

Blonde color Jaguar!

Fender introduced the Jazzmaster in 1958 to enter the Jazz field, which was dominated by Gibson and Epiphone in the 1950s.
As a result, Fender did not succeed in capturing the conservative jazz guitarists, but it became popular among surf music guitarists in the early 60's. In the early 70's, Fender released the Jazzmaster in the color of Blonde.
Jaguar was newly introduced for surf music guitarists.
As with the Stratocaster, the Jaguar was developed with the same respect for musicians' opinions as the Stratocaster, and actively incorporated the requests of surf music guitarists who said that the neck scale was too long and that they wanted a brighter sound.
While inheriting the offset contour body, front preset tone, and floating tremolo unit of the Jazzmaster, the neck scale was changed from 25 1/2" to 24", a yoke (metal cover) was installed on the PU, and a low cut switch was added in addition to the PU selector. A low cut switch has also been added in addition to the PU selector to produce a higher output and brighter tone.
The Jaguar, packed with Fender's technology as described above, was released as Fender's top-of-the-line model.
After that, various artists used Jaguar in the 1990's due to the alterna/grunge trend, and Jaguar further established its popularity even though it was different from the style originally envisioned.

The 1960s Jaguar we have in stock this time is Blonde Finish, so it uses an Ash body like other models.
There are a few Jaguars made in the mid-1960s, but there are very few with the Blonde color that use Ash as the body material.
This is the last Jaguar before the binding was applied to the fingerboard side at the end of 1965.
The head logo has been redecaled, but the PU has been rewound with a Black Bobbin and the pots are from 1962.
The frets are worn but still original.
It has a crisp Jaguar-like contour, but the low mid has a thicker and more persistent tone.
This Jaguar has a unique sound that is hard to find even in vintage guitars, let alone current ones!
