1965 Fender Jaguar • Sunburst • 100% Original • Original Hard Shell Case

If you're reading this listing, you probably already know the Jaguar's reputation. Introduced as Fender's flagship solid-body, it featured a 24-inch scale, dual-circuit electronics, individual pickup switching, floating tremolo, and the innovative string mute system that Fender proudly promoted in its original catalogs. It remains one of Leo Fender's most ambitious and distinctive des…
