Our Take:
For those guitar players who smell like teen spirit, Fender has faithfully recreated Kurt Cobain's iconic (and unusual) lefty 1965 Jaguar that he started slinging shortly after the release of Nirvana's massive hit album Nevermind. Terrible puns aside, this guitar is packed with special features, like a Rosewood fingerboard and bound Maple neck, two DiMarzio humbucking pickups for huge bursts of sound, and a Hardshell case chock-full of Cobain goodies.
Fender's Take:
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.
