Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar Surf Green RW

General

Take an instant trip to the '60s with the Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar. This guitar has the sound and looks of Fender's characteristic '60s 'surf' guitar. Its unconventional asymmetrical body and its clear, sharp tone combined with the vibrato bridge's creative possibilities have made the Jaguar a much-loved instrument among guitarists playing surf music. Squier has provided this guitar with an appropriate Fender Surf Green finish. The modified section of this Jaguar consists of two powerful pickups designed by Seymour Duncan and a modern 9.5-inch fretboard radius for more comfort while playing. An affordable new Squier guitar to commemorate an old Fender, what more can you want?

The Squier Vintage Modified Jaguar's features

The Vintage Modified Jaguar has the same 24-inch scale length as the original, making its neck a little shorter than that of a Stratocaster or Telecaster and thus ideal for smaller guitarists. The neck has a vintage-tint high-gloss finish and a laurel fretboard with 22 medium jumbo frets and clay dot style position markers for an authentic look. You'll also find chrome Kluson-style machine heads and an adjustable bridge with floating vibrato tailpiece for subtle vibrato effects on this guitar. The body is made of basswood that is not only comfortably light but also produces a neat, balanced tone that perfectly matches the fierce bite of the Duncan Designed single-coil pickups.

Two independent tone circuits for versatile sounds

A notable feature of the Jaguar guitar is its two independent tone circuits, with a circuit selector above the neck pickup that turns the rhythm circuit on or off. The rhythm circuit uses only the neck pickup and lets the two horizontal disc knobs control volume and tone. In this mode, the neck pickup also sounds a little darker than when its set to lead mode. In lead mode, the two black potentiometers below the bridge function as volume and tone controls for both pickups. The three little slider knobs allow you to turn the neck and/or bridge pickup on or off and engage an alternative circuit that makes the guitar sound more fierce, ideal for cutting through the mix.

The Squier brand

Ever since the introduction of Fender's first electric guitar in the '50s, many competing manufacturers have produced cheap imitations, of varying quality. To offer the same reliability, sound and handling of the original at a reasonable price, Fender started their affiliate Squier in 1982, not to be confused with Fender Esquire! Squier guitars and bass guitars are built according to specifications, and under the supervision of Fender, ensuring a high-quality and, most of all, authentic instrument.
