1964 Fender Jaguar – Candy Apple Red
We present an all original 1964 Fender Jaguar in its original Candy Apple Red finish with matching headstock. Made in Fullerton, California.
This Fender Jaguar is absolutely stunning to play. It features a beautiful dark rosewood fingerboard with excellent original frets and nut. There is remarkable resonance when you strike the first chord, and that dynamic, soulful quality truly translates into the amplified signal. The Jaguar offers tonal flexibility, allowing you to both thicken the sound or make it even more sinewy and cutting. Overall, this pre-CBS Fender guitar is in very good condition, with some nicks, dings, and other cosmetic signs of playwear.
The “strangle” toggle (located on the hexagonal plate next to the individual pickup on/off switches) gives the guitar a treble-heavy snap, while the rhythm circuit is a separate setting for the neck pickup, engaging a darker tone capacitor. The rhythm circuit delivers one of the guitar’s finest tones—a thick, wooly sound that still maintains clarity, adding warmth to clean passages. The maple neck has a C-shaped profile that is very slender at the nut, gaining notable shoulder and roundness as you move up the fretboard, with a satisfying chunk. This Jaguar boasts beautiful nitrocellulose lacquer with nicks, dings, and other cosmetic wear throughout.
It’s 100% original throughout – just like it left the Fullerton factory back in 1964.
Pickups and electronics/wiring remain untouched and intact, with no broken solder joints and no re-wound pickups. All original and correct.
Comes with its original Fender white tolex hardshell case. Latches and handle are in perfect working order.
