Full Description
View Full DescriptionMarr's musical legacy
An icon of pop and rock. Since dominating the UK pop scene with The Smiths, Marr has gone on to carve his own path in music stardom. Lending his considerable talents to acts like the Pretenders, Modest Mouse and the Cribs, in addition to a thriving solo career, he's imprinted his textural and layering genius onto the modern consciousness.
And a Fender Jaguar has consistently been at the heart of his exploits, offering an easy playability with remarkable tonality - this signature special recreates the magic that fuelled Marr's distinctive creativity.
Custom-wound Bare Knuckle pickups
The signature sound. To be accurate and authentic, Fender just had to include a set of Marr's favourite single coils. Custom made and wound by Bare Knuckle, they sing with his unique musicality. Offering plenty of growl and bite for single coils, yet still retaining their clucky and sparky tone, you have plenty of sonic flexibility to play with.
Together with the Jaguar's iconic switching electronics, you can draw out even more dynamics! A universal bright switch and a bright switch for position 4 add in extra elements to an already rich sound.
Vintage Marr style playability
Offering a distinctive and unique custom neck shape, the Johnny Marr Jaguar serves up a remarkable playing experience. Based on his '65 Jaguar, it boosts the smooth and comfortable grip from the classic guitars of old. Reinforced by a gloss nitro lacquer for a truly authentic response and look, you'll traverse the scales in a timeless style.
On top of that lies a premium rosewood fretboard. Offering a dark, rich colour and buttery playing feel, you'll be able to draw out your best techniques on its shorter 24" scale length. Coupled with a vintage 7.25" radius, it's insanely easy to chord on.
Consistent, reliable, and highly unique hardware
Fender and Marr are a match made in heaven. Offering his individual style and extraordinary sound, the Marr signature completes the experience with a set of precision hardware. You can expect a consistent and dependable tuning stability from six-in-line American Vintage tuners that team with a unique Jaguar bridge. This bridge features Mustang saddles and nylon inserts to guarantee a steady and solid tuning, in addition to fine control over your intonation and clear, vocal string vibrations.
Complete with case, strap, and cable
Ready for anything. The Johnny Marr Jaguar includes everything you need to keep it secure and protected when out on the road. A quality Fender hardshell case provides bespoke security, and a vintage style cable and leather strap mean that you're always equipped to perform.
