Fender Jaguar '66 Reissue
The mightiest of all the offsets; the Fender Jaguar was the most expensive guitar in the catalog when it launched in 1962 but failed to achieve the success that the Telecaster and Stratocaster enjoyed. The Jag found itself in the hands of surf musicians that could take advantage of the unique and brilliant tremolo system, but lacked endorsement from big artists to really put its name on the guitar map.
That all changed in the 90's, during the Grunge and Alternative rock movement; artists and bands cherished the unique looks and tones of old Jags and Jazzmasters and put the offset Fender in the limelight!

Our Jag is a road warrior, this thing has been played and loved! There's plenty of mojo, dings, dents etc but it wears them very well! We've had this guitar completely to pieces, cleaned every screw, polished every surface and put it back to together. This frets have been levelled and crowned, ready for another 25 years of service!
