We just took in one ouf our favorite artist models of all-time, the Fender Kurt Cobain Road Worn Jaguar.  While Fender still makes a Cobain Jaguar, they do not do the Road Worn version anymore.  Originally introduced in 2011 to coincide with the 20th Anniversary of Nevermind, it was made until 2015.  It's been high in demand ever since.  

This one was built in 2012 and is in great shape.  it's a Road Worn obviously so there's wear - that's how it was made.  What we have here comes with the original hardshell case as well as the commemorative book - that's a rare find.

The Kurt Cobain Jaguar was meticulously modeled on the battered and highly unusual 1965 Jaguar that Cobain wielded during the early-'90s era when Nirvana was huge.  Fender reproduced Cobain's battle-hardened Left-Handed Jaguar down to the last unusual detail, including its worn finish, dual humbucking pickups and unique electronics and controls (which were already in place when Kurt acquired the guitar in summer 1991).

The guitar an alder body with Road Worn aged finish and hardware treatment, bound fingerboard with pearloid dot markers, and Stratocaster headstock shape with 1950s-style "spaghetti" logo.  It's loaded with DiMarzio humbucking DP103 PAF 36th Anniversary neck pickup and DP100 Super Distortion bridge pickup to nail the tone that helped change music forever.  It has triple knurled "chrome-dome" knob configuration (volume-volume-tone), three-position toggle switch, black chrome Adjusto-Matic bridge and Gotoh sealed tuners.

Setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop, it's ready to go.

Accessories include a black textured vinyl hard-shell case and an exclusive Fender Kurt Cobain book with photos and commentary by Charles Peterson and an insightful interview with Nirvana guitar tech Earnie Bailey.
