PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE

Kurt Cobain: a name that totally changed the musical landscape in the 1990s. He had a few weapons of choice, and high up on the list was his beloved '65 Fender Jaguar. With this axe, Kurt boldly blazed forth into new sonic territory, thus fulfilling the general purpose of this model that Fender intended - to make new music happen. What was once only used for surf rock became an weapon capable of unexpected edge and grunginess.

This bad boy plays smooth from top to bottom. The DiMarzio PAF 36th in the neck position delivers all the meat you could ever need out of a humbucking pickup... until you decide you need more. That's where the iconic, hard-hitting Super Distortion bridge has you covered. This Jag is so inspiring to play, you could literally start a band around it. Get out there and rock!

ITEM SPECIFICS

Return to the dark intensity and huge guitar sounds of the grunge rock movement with the Kurt Cobain Jaguar, a new-looking version of the battered and highly unusual 1965 Jaguar that Cobain wielded during the heady early-'90s era when Nirvana ruled rock and led a musically stunning and culturally subversive movement. It authentically evokes the modified left-handed Jaguar that Cobain found secondhand and came to prize shortly after the recording of massive 1991 album Nevermind, complete with DiMarzio humbucking pickups, special switching, exclusive in-case extras and more. Available in right- and left-handed versions.
