Here we have a very cool Fender Classic Player Jaguar Special HH in Olympic White, built during 2018, now discontinued and in very good clean condition. This model makes a few important changes to the original Jaguar layout, substituting a pair of humbucking pickups for the original single coils, and pairs a standard ‘tune a matic’ style bridge with the original style locking trem unit. It has all the wiring features of the original.
For the Jaguar Special HH, the offset body is Alder, paired with a Maple neck sporting a 24 inch scale, 9.5 inch radius Pau Ferro fingerboard. When introduced in 1962, the Jaguar was at the top of the line, aimed directly at Gibson-playing jazz guitarists, and that meant Rosewood fingerboards. However, the marketing plans didn’t quite work out. The Jaguar was adopted by surf artists instead, and from there made it into the hands of rockers like Kurt Cobain and Johnny Marr.
This example is in very good condition with very light wear. The modernization features do make it more versatile and reliable, and the relatively short scale makes larger chords a lot easier to reach.
Sold with its original gig bag.
