60th Anniversary Jaguar
This guitar features an alder body finished in nitrocellulose lacquer, and has all of the traditional Jaguar trimmings: A 24-inch scale, a traditional Jaguar bridge and vibrato with a mute, lead/rhythm circuit wiring alongside a strangle switch, and two single-coil pickups. The maple neck has a bound rosewood fretboard with pearloid block inlays.
It’s available in either Mystic Dakota Red or Mystic Lake Placid Blue. Lists for $2,499.99 / £2,499 / €2,899
60th Anniversary American Ultra Luxe Jaguar
$2,499.99 USD, £2,499.00 GBP, €2,899.00 EUR, $4899.00 AUD, ¥418,000 JPY)
The Ultra Luxe Jaguar is a much more modern take on the instrument, featuring a unique look and combination of specs. There’s a pair of wide-range Double-Tap humbuckers, a blade selector switch and coil-split switches instead of the standard Jaguar wiring. The scale length is the longer Fender standard of 25.5 inches, providing snappier string tension. The neck also features a 10-14-inch compound radius fretboard, as well as a tapered heel and rolled edges for a fast, all-access feel.
The limited-edition guitar includes a premium moulded hardshell case, and lists for $2,499.99, £2,499 / €2,899
