Up for sale, a 1986 Fender Jaguar ‘62 vintage reissue model JG66-75 in excellent condition and in perfect working order. A rare, early “Made in Japan” instrument, this first-year example of Fender Japan’s Jaguar model was crafted at the Fujigen factory, featuring a gloss Candy Apple Red finish with matching headstock.
For surfy snap and twang, it's hard to beat the Jaguar, a model adopted by a wide range of genres for its cutting Fender tone and easy playability. With a percussive clarity and snarl in the bridge position and warmer, darker tonalities at the neck, there's a surprisingly wide range of voicings available on the Jaguar, further enhanced by the Rhythm Circuit on the lower bout (for even darker tones) and a bass cut switch on the hexagonal switch plate (for more thinned out, treble-centric sizzle). This Jaguar weighs 8lbs 1oz, professionally setup with 10-46 strings here at Mike & Mike's Guitar Bar, where we specialize in Fender Offset instruments, dialed in with easy-playing action and accurate intonation.
Neck Specs:
-Wood: Maple
-Shape: Slender C, measuring .775” 1st fret, .885” 12th fret
-Fretboard: Rosewood, 7 1/4” vintage-spec radius
-Frets: Slender, virtually no wear
-Scale Length: 24”
-Nut: 1 5/8” (replacement)
-Tuners: Kluson-style, Gotoh
-Serialization: “Made in Japan,” E-prefix
-Factory Markings: JG66-75 stamps on neck heel/pocket, small blue “75” sticker on peghead denotes model tier and original price (¥75,000)
Body Specs:
-Wood: Alder
-Pickups: JG-PU single coil x2
-Harness: Untouched solder, full-size Japanese pots date to May, 1986
-Controls: Volume/Tone (Lead & Rhythm Circuits), Pickup On/Off x2, Low Cut switch
-Hardware: Vibrato, bridge with spiral (threaded) saddles
-Plastics: Three-ply white pickguard, pointer knobs, yellowed pickup covers
The gloss Candy Apple Red finish presents very well, with limited buckle worming on the lower bout of the back and some minor dings on the body as a whole (also largely on the lower bout). The ambered gloss on the neck profile is clean and smooth with just a few shallow marks that don’t distract the palm while fretting.
A modern Fender padded gigbag is included.
