Fender 2018 Limited Edition Jaguar Strat

A TOUCH OF FLASH

Luxurious and sleek with its chrome embellishment and graceful contours, the limited-edition Jaguar Strat will make jaws drop when it turns up in the spotlight. The streamlined alder Strat body is adorned with chrome control plates and a tortoiseshell Jaguar pickguard, adding a blaze of style that’s for the bold. Sounding as killer as it looks, this instrument has everything that made you fall in love with both guitars.

ALDER BODY

Long used by Fender for its electric guitar bodies, alder is noted for bright, balanced and resonant tone, along with large, swirling grain patterns.

LACQUER FINISH

The nitrocellulose lacquer finish lets the body breathe with its true tonal character and also ages and wears in a distinctively personal way.

9.5”-RADIUS FINGERBOARD

This instrument’s modern 9.5” fingerboard radius is slightly more flattened than a vintage-style radius, offering enough arc to provide a natural fret-hand feel.

PURE VINTAGE ’65 JAGUAR PICKUPS

These pickups use original-era construction techniques to recreate authentic Fender tone—bright and aggressive, they have some bite.

BONE NUT

A string nut fashioned from bone contributes to superior tone and performance, as well as being an authentic original-era Fender design element.

JAZZMASTER®/JAGUAR® BRIDGE

This vintage-style floating tremolo features lock button and a 9.5”-radius to ensure your strings match the fingerboard’s arc. The pop-in arm stays in place and the tension can be adjusted to match your preferences.
