Bright lights sounds from guitars that are accustomed to big audiences, big names, and big times . . . Fender's Jaguar, Jazzmaster, and Stratocaster. These quality crafted, superbly styled guitars get marquee billing every time. It's always opening night when you select a Fender.
It's a sell out performance every night with the Fender Jaguar. The standard and the unusual in styling and musical variations are featured in this great solid body guitar. Incorporating such features as adjustable truss-rod reinforced neck with short 24-inch scale and 22 frets, the Jaguar offers unrivalled playing ease and versatility. Inlaid position markers in the bound high speed neck add flair to the show-stopping character of the top-billed Jaguar. Another Fender first is a special string mute conveniently mounted at the bridge. It is easily switched from open to muted position, providing rapid playing style changes. The Jaguar employs two adjustable patented Fender pickups offering greater tone variations than ever before. Both pickups are controlled by on-off switches that enable the player to use either pickup or both at his convenience. A third switch offers tone variations for each pickup or both. Thus, the Jaguar has six possible tone variations in the lead circuit alone, plus standard tone and volume controls. The lead/rhythm selector switch near the neck enables the player to preset both lead and rhythm controls thereby affording rapid change from one playing style to another without having to adjust volume and tone settings. The Fender Floating Tremolo works in conjunction with a Floating Bridge for the smoothest possible tremolo action, returning to tuned pitch without variance. A "Trem-lok" stops the tremolo block permitting strings to be changed simultaneously or individually and also prevents detuning should one break during a performance.
