{"product_id":"863596","title":"Fender USA VINTAGE Jaguar early'63 Sunburst\/R","description":"Following the success of the Jazzmaster, which saw increased sales during the surf music boom of the 1950s, Fender released the Jaguar in 1962 as their top-of-the-line guitar. Initially, it enjoyed many custom color orders and successfully capitalized on the trend, boosting sales. However, its characteristics proved unsuitable for the rock music that later became globally popular, and production ceased in the mid-1970s. Since then, the emergence of charismatic figures representing grunge and alternative music has brought renewed attention to the Jaguar, and it continues to exude a strong presence while seamlessly blending into today's diverse music scene.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This is a model from the clay dot\/round-laminated rosewood fingerboard era. The neck date and parts date are from the very end of 1962, and the serial number and body date are from the beginning of 1963, indicating that it was manufactured around 1962-63. It's a sunburst colored guitar in excellent condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【body】\u003cbr\u003e The total weight is approximately 3.9 kg. The body is made of two-piece alder. It features an all-lacquer finish and a beautiful sunburst color with a distinct three-tone reddish tint. Weather checking is relatively minimal, and there are some dents with paint chipping, belt buckle marks, and tarnishing on the metal parts, but considering its age, it is in remarkably good condition. The body date is clearly visible as \"1\/63\" under the tremolo cavity. A mute device and bridge cover are included.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 【neck】\u003cbr\u003e The neck is made of maple. The fingerboard is made of beautifully round-laminated rosewood. There is little discoloration on the headstock top and back of the neck, and only minor wear on the decal logo, a few dents, and some tarnishing on the metal parts, making it in very good condition, similar to the body. The tuners are the original Kluson Deluxe from this period, and they function well with only slight variations in winding tension. The frets and nut show only slight wear, and playability is good. The headstock thickness is 13.5mm and the nut width is 41.0mm. It features a nicely solid neck shape. The neck date of December 1962 is clearly visible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e [Electrical System]\u003cbr\u003e The controls are as follows: Main side [Neck (front) pickup ON\/OFF switch \/ Bridge (rear) pickup ON\/OFF switch \/ Low-cut switch] [Master volume \/ Master tone], Preset side [Preset ON\/OFF switch \/ Preset volume \/ Preset tone]. The pickups are two black bobbin pickups with flat pole pieces from that era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The 24-inch scale provides a unique, crisp tone with shorter sustain, a sharp, tight attack, and sparkling highs. The superb fretboard of this era combines to create a three-dimensional clean tone that is characteristic of surf music of that time. Furthermore, the light and clear tone provided by the low-cut switch resonates beautifully from chord work to instrumental playing utilizing the tremolo, allowing you to fully appreciate the delicate nuances and sharpness unique to vintage Jaguars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Accessories: Fender brown Tolex hard case, mute device, bridge cover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 3.9kg\u003cbr\u003e Body Material: Alder (2 pieces)\u003cbr\u003e Neck Material\/Scale Length: Maple 1 piece\/609mm (24inch)\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard\/Fret Marker\/Radius: Rosewood round laminate\/Clay dot\/184.15mm (7.25inch)\u003cbr\u003e Nut Width\/Fret Size (width): 41.0mm\/2.0mm, 22 Fret\u003cbr\u003e Neck Thickness (1F\/7F\/12F): 22.0mm\/23.1mm\/23.3mm\u003cbr\u003e Pickups (Neck\/Bridge): Fender Jaguar Black Bottom Flat polepiece (6.7kΩ\/6.8kΩ)\u003cbr\u003e *The DC resistance value of the pickup is measured after passing through the control section.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Heartman Vintage Guitars is a specialty store for vintage guitars and basses operated by Ikebe Musical Instruments.","brand":"Fender USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43684695212145,"sku":"863596","price":12629.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/863596_01.jpg?v=1784716921","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/es\/products\/863596","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
