Special model for the 60th anniversary of the Fender Jaguar
With the Fender 60th Anniversary Jaguar RW Mystic Dakota Red, Fender celebrates the 60th anniversary of the electric guitar introduced in 1962 as the "Top or the Line" model, which with its offset style and varied sounds was perfectly tailored to the needs of the music styles that were in vogue at the time and today is the guitar of choice especially in alternative and indie rock. While the short 24" scale length and the neck in the authentically reproduced C-profile promise comfortable playing characteristics, two Jaguar single coils with rhythm and lead circuit provide first-class vintage tones. Fender naturally completes the 60th Anniversary Jaguar with the typical Vintage "Floating" tremolo, a 6-saddle bridge and precise Vintage-Style tuners.
Celebrating the Jaguar's 60th birthday, the Fender 60th Anniversary Jaguar RW Mystic Dakota Red features classy custom appointments and an authentic vintage feel.
A neckplate with Anniversary logo connects maple neck and alder body of the 60th Anniversary Jaguar.
Classic construction and authentic playing feel
The 60th Anniversary Jaguar is clearly oriented towards its ancestors from the beginning of the wild sixties in terms of construction and playing comfort. While the alder body in typical offset style takes a stable position on both the strap and the thigh, the shortened 24" scale length (610 mm) together with the slim "1966 Jaguar C" maple neck and the 7.25" fingerboard radius (184 mm) promise buttery smooth playing characteristics with an authentic vintage feel.
Jaguar single coils with typical metal binding and the circuit with lead and rhythm circuit promise versatile guitar sounds with vintage character....
Jaguar Single Coils with flexible circuit.
As pickups for the 60th Anniversary Jaguar, Fender chooses two 60th Anniversary Jaguar Single Coils. Due to the slightly increased output and the serrated metal shielding, the pickups convince with a particularly warm and dynamically responsive sound, which also comes up in the overdrive channel with reduced ambient noise. Of course, the pickups are controlled with the typical circuit of lead and rhythm circuit, which allows the recall of two sound presets. While the rhythm circuit activates the neck pickup together with its own volume and tone controls, the lead circuit grants full access to the pickups via two on/off switches and general volume and tone controls. In addition, this circuit features the well-known "Strangle" switch, which activates a high-pass filter.
Vintage-style tuners with Fender logo keep the 60th Anniversary Jaguar securely in tune.
Authentic hardware
Last but not least, Fender completes the features of the 60th Anniversary Jaguar RW Mystic Dakota Red with authentic vintage-style hardware. While the 6-Saddle Adjustable Bridge promises precise adjustment of intonation and string action, the vintage-style "floating" tremolo can be used to create shimmering shifts in pitch. Behind the bone nut, Fender Vintage "F" Stamped tuners also ensure precise tuning with long-lasting stability.
This guitar not only looks the part with its accompanying case with orange inlay, it also sounds fantastic and is a dream to play. 10/10 would recommend to anyone along with buying from Music Store for a quick and easy service. Rock on!
