Description
Johnny Marr rose to fame as the guitarist, arranger, and songwriter behind the Smiths, who redefined '80s British pop as we know it. Fender's Limited Edition Johnny Marr Jaguar pays tribute to the legendary musician, and it's a perfect fit for alt-rockers seeking an outstanding short-scale guitar.
This gorgeous axe starts with an alder body finished in a highly limited Fever Dream Yellow, giving it a unique, eye-catching aesthetic. Its maple neck sports a custom profile based on Johnny's '65 Jaguar, and it's slightly chunkier than your standard vintage Jag neck - great for players seeking something a little more substantial.
Unlike your typical Jaguar, the Johnny Marr signature features a 4-way pickup selector that offers tons of sonic versatility. Positions 1-3 give access to the traditional pickup combinations (neck, neck/bridge, bridge), while the fourth position runs the pickups in series for a gutsier tone with deeper lows and punchier mids. And, for all the tone purists out there, this model has a universal bright switch and a dedicated bright switch for series mode.
Complete with a hardshell case for safe transport, the Fender Limited Edition Johnny Marr Jaguar is an excellent choice for Jaguar lovers who want something with a unique twist.
