Body
As they have for decades, Fender has gone with their tonewood of choice to craft the body - alder. Thanks to its mild mannered temperament and highly versatile timbre, alder is the perfect choice to deliver the tonal diversity that the Jaguar is known for. The body is a joy to play with thanks to its lightweight feel and perfectly distributed weight across the body and neck. Fitted to the body is an adjusto-matic bridge with vintage-style ""floating"" tremolo tailpiece and tremolo lock button, ensures that intonation is optimised and strings are simple to adjust if necessary, whilst string tension is upheld meticulously. Performing subtle vibrato-technique feels smooth, and the bridge responds with the utmost precision, returning to neutral position gracefully.
Neck
Fitted to the body is a C-shaped maple neck with a modern 9.5 inch fingerboard radius, offering a smooth and responsive playing-feel that is suited to all playing styles. The 24 inch scale length ensures that strings ring out with maximum sustain and generates a fantastic level of resonance. The 22 medium-jumbo frets are a joy to navigate, with parchment dot position inlays to guide your way. The neck has been treated to a gloss urethane finish to preserve the maple for as long as possible, maintaining a smooth playing feel.
Electronics
The Jaguar is equipped with an innovative and intuitive control system, comprised of several switches with integrated rhythm and lead circuits. Thanks to the pair of Special Design Hot single-coil Jaguar pickups, a plethora of tones can be accessed with ease. Tapping into the unique control system and circuitry greatly expands your explorative options.
