Personal Thoughts
This Fender Custom Shop '64 Jaguar Closet Classic Relic in Firemist Silver with '62 Jaguar Flat Magnets pickups is a vintage-inspired masterpiece. The Closet Classic Relic treatment brings an authentic, well-worn look, with subtle checking and natural wear that evoke the feeling of a treasured, carefully maintained instrument. The Firemist Silver finish is striking and elegant, with a classic charm that never goes out of style. The '62 Jaguar Flat Magnets pickups offer a slightly warmer, rounder tone compared to traditional Jaguar pickups, with a smooth and balanced sound that's perfect for both rhythm and lead work.
The 24" scale length of the Jaguar is super comfortable, making it ideal for quick runs and complex chords. The floating tremolo system adds versatility, allowing for subtle vibrato effects or full-on dive bombs, and the rhythm/lead circuit gives you even more tonal flexibility.
This is a stunning, well-crafted instrument for players who want the vintage vibe of a '60s Jaguar with the modern touch of Fender's Custom Shop craftsmanship.
