General

The Fender Jaguar, first introduced in 1962, is a highly-desirable electric guitar but the '60s originals don't come cheap. This American Original '60s Jaguar offers the same feel, look and sound for a more attractive price. Fender have taken care to ensure that everything about this iconic, offset model matches the original '60s design, from the wood types used, to the high-gloss nitrocellulose lacquer, to the hardware and electronics. All of these elements combine to offer a playing experience that comes very close to the iconic original itself.

American Original '60s Jaguar: Authentic Sound and Feel

The solid alder body, maple neck and rosewood fretboard form the basis of this Jaguar's sound. The two Pure Vintage '62 Single-Coil Jaguar pickups with enamel-covered coils ensure an authentic, amplified tone and each pickup has its own controls for volume and tone. This American Original '60s offset model is fitted with the trusted lead/rhythm circuit and 'Strangle' bass cut switch. For an original feel, Fender has finished this Jaguar with a classic 9.5-inch fretboard radius, 22 tall frets and a '60s C profile neck. If you play punk, grunge, alternative rock or surf, this model is probably right up your street.

Fender American Original '60s Jaguar Surf Green RW
Wrote the following about Fender American Original '60s Jaguar Surf Green RW
Geluid: *****
Klinkt ouderwets clean en klinkt zeer strak met een overdrive of distortion.

Specificaties: *****
Ouderwetse specificaties met een moderne hals radius en Jumbo frets. De brug is minder geschikt voor mensen die erg hard strummen. Tja, hoort bij de vintage vibe. Het is vanwege de 9,5 inch radius lastig om goede vervangende brug te vinden.

Afwerking: **
Hier en daar had de gitaar beter afgewerkt kunnen worden. Vooral het fretwerk was verre van goed. Zeer scherpe fret randen. Van een Amerikaanse Fender mag je wat dat betreft meer verwachten. De fretten waren wel goed geleveld. Bax heeft de fretten wat bijgewerkt waardoor de gitaar beter bespeelbaar is. Zelf heb ik thuis nog wat extra werk aan het fretwerk verricht om het te perfectioneren. Nu speelt hij goed!

Koffer: ***
Ziet er strak uit, maar vertoont ook wat afwerkingsfouten. Tevens is hij niet zeer stevig. Leuk voor het oog, maar als je hem meeneemt naar een gig is het aan te raden een andere koffer aan te schaffen.
