A stunning Pre-CBS 1964 Fender Jaguar with tons of character and vintage charm.

This vintage Jaguar has been refinished in a beautiful blonde finish and tastefully aged, giving it the look and feel of a well-loved original. It also features original 1960s gold hardware, a rare and very cool period custom touch.

The neck was clear-coated at some point in its life and repaired where the wood had separated near the tuner area. Part of the original headstock decal remains visible.

This guitar has definitely been played and enjoyed over the decades, and it absolutely delivers sonically. The tone is rich, full and articulate; with a smooth top end that never becomes harsh. The bridge pickup has excellent bite and punch, with plenty of growl while remaining musical and balanced. The neck pickup is deep, powerful and wonderfully round sound just like a sonic bomb!. The comfortable “C” neck profile makes it an effortless and inspiring player.

The guitar retains most of its original parts. Only the tuners and a few screws were replaced long ago.

Included are:

• Original gold mute assembly (plunger, spring, screws, complete setup)
• Original gold vibrato arm
• Original black “no logo” case (circa 1964–1965)

The final two photos show the guitar prior to the refinish.
