Player perfected performance

The Fender Player Jaguar delivers optimised performance and exceptional playability, to create an instrument that feels luxurious to play. A modern “C” maple neck provides complete control of the guitar, ensuring that your hold on the neck is tight and comfortable, whilst also delivering enough freedom to rush from one extreme of the fretboard to the other. A pau ferro fretboard offers a luscious surface to effortlessly glide across.

Solid alder body

Alder is often favoured by guitarists for its incredibly balanced tone and unrivalled subtlety in its dynamics, meaning that its tone is ideal for use with a multitude of genres. Offering excellent sustain and vibrant resonance, each note soars, cutting through the mix with ease. Delivering bright, searing highs, a bold, beefy mid-range, and well-rounded lows, it serves as an excellent foundation to the guitar’s overall tone, allowing it to suit any style.

High quality electronics and hardware

This Jaguar comes equipped with a range of superb components, delivering exceptional tone and professional performance to players who know their budget. Equipped with two player series pickups, the guitar is instantly infused with the very essence of Fender the guitar holds that instantly recognizable clarity and that blissful twang. Shaping this tone is completely intuitive, with a toggle switch, tone controls, and a volume control allowing you to completely control every essence of your sound. The 6-saddle vintage-style adjustable bridge with “floating” tremolo tailpiece offers unique pitch bending possibilities, while the addition of a synthetic bone nut helps enhance the natural resonance and string stability.

History of the Jaguar

The jaguar was a feature-laden instrument released in 1962 and designed to tempt players away from other guitar brands. It had a relatively unusual switching system, but during its 13-year production run it did not sell as well as the classic Stratocaster and Telecaster models. It became popular in the surf music scene, and later with punk and rock players of the ‘80s and ‘90s, once production had been ceased. Fender began making a Japanese-made model in the ‘80s, and a USA reissue in 1999. It is now famed for its off-set design and unique tones.
