HIGHLIGHTS 

Alder Body

A classic Fender tonewood known for resonance, punch and clarity, alder has a balanced and lively tone with beefy mids and a robust low-end.

Maple Neck With 7.25" Radius Round-Laminated Rosewood Fingerboard and Vintage Tall Frets

The 7.25” radius fingerboard provides vintage comfort and feel, while vintage-tall frets provide slightly more height than vintage for big bends and wide vibrato.

Mid 60's "C"-Shape Neck

This classic '60s shape is comfortably rounded and starts off slim at the nut, thickening moderately toward the 12th fret.

Vintage-Style Mid '60's Pickups

Mid '60s spec Jaguar pickups capture the essence of classic Fender single-coil tone with jangly brightness and shimmering attack, delivering crisp, articulate sound with the distinctive bite and sparkle that made these offset guitars the choice of surf, pop and indie musicians.

Vintage-Style Floating Tremolo With Push-In Tremolo Arm And Jaguar Mute 

One of our most beloved designs, this "floating" tremolo with Jaguar mute offers the sound and feel of a vintage unit for classic Jaguar® warble. Create effects ranging from subtle surf and expressive indie shimmer to radical shoegaze dives and glides, while the integrated mute provides additional tonal control to add a cool personal touch to your music.

Lead / Rhythm Circuit
