As a member of the American Vintage Series, which pays homage to famous instruments of Fender's past, the Fender American Vintage '65 Jaguar electric guitar is modeled after, of course, the 1965 vintage Jaguar. Short in scale and including the characteristic tremolo system, the American Vintage '65 Jaguar features period-accurate appointments but with a few updated perks, like Fender's American Vintage pickups, which emulate the sound of the '50s and '60s without the hassle and noise of an older instrument.
