All user reviews of 5/5 for the Fender Classic Player Jaguar Special

It is a made in mexico, a jaguar classic if not higher and the radius of the system tone o matic type bridge. Otherwise all the usual adjustments jaguar ... (Short scale, body offset, tone volume, a circuit up to the neck pickup with volume and tone) a circuit for a low selector lever to 3 (used to it quickly) with volume and tone.
The finish quality is not great but frankly I had a gibson, fender, bc rich, and others, and it's really in the middle, in fact the only criticism I have to do as on most guitars today (except strangely Squier) is that any pet the paint is peeling badly as if it adhered to the body (ps so the maximum score). I color sunburst, very well done, but unlike japan where gradient is more marked, we like it or not ... Cons by Fender continues with its brown shell pickguard or I do not know what, as the coup is a model not very common these made in mexico hard to find a red tortoise pickguard (well ... not hard ...)

Little damage: the vibrato is closer than usual on the jaguar, so we may always fun to scrape the strings behind the bridge but it will be less powerful and easy because the angle is quite high. But it certainly avoids the buzz and it still needs to better respond to the strings at the bridge and therefore the wood to give it more character.

I used the Jazzmaster and I love my bc rich, and I had bad memories with the jaguar, but then there! Very comfortable, not too heavy, a nice round for all styles of play, very well balanced. Both sitting and standing it holds well. The controls fall easily to hand and we play almost without noticing it.
Note that the handle to the tone with short scale o matic is a fabulous find! The agreements are linked together easily, and apart from the edge of the right hand that "tickle" if wholesale abuse of palm mute, everything is so good that I'm thinking about leaving one of my Jazzmaster for another jaguar made in mexico but with humbuckers that time.

So there I stayed on my ass. I bought some by mistake, I was already disappointed that I was mistaken and taking the microphone to simple (and fairer to purchase I found myself with a lot of bills to pay ) However: Actually the original pickups are just perfect! Strangely the style that suits him best is the black metal (admittedly rather old school)! Looks like she is really made for this: snapping, a little cold and smooth distortion of darkthrone to marduk it can really go far. In his clear and crunch for the big rock that goes very well too, but only if the couple distortion (or overdrive) with a normal fat overdrive well and with great personality, if need be with a kind of residual clear sound not necessarily unpleasant but that will not go with many styles. The tone controls are effective, but this bridge pickup original ... excellent! A very honorable exit for a single microphone, it sends a lot less superdistortion example, but really good job, and with the stroke volume of the hair he happens to be a blend of choice on single-channel amps (I stated more than my other guitars that have pickups hi gain is almost unthinkable to use a single channel or background other than zero). The neck pickup is pretty good too but it's a position I rarely use so I am a bad judge. It sounds clear, crisp, chattering. It will be really comfortable in all styles except maybe the big death or great thrash dripping well (and even if they rule well behind the receiver, which moderates the tone on the guitar, and go let's be crazy, it puts a Proco rat before the amp, it should pass as the fat of a dead ...).

Everything is perfect on it, I really have no complaints. I am perhaps the one that fell on an exception to the series and has exceptional quality, at least at the beginning if I had the idea to sell it (because need money) I quickly changed opinion and trying to sell something else. I keep and for a while! And my next guitar will definitely be another classic player jaguar (good if I come across a vintage at the same price for the legend ... but I count on it too much above)
