Thing is, I quite like that one actually.

It looks pretty cool.  Apart from the three knobs being so close together they're completely unusable.  The middle one would have to go!

i like, be interested to see how much it costs

they need to sack whoever photoshopped the headstock pic!

It's effectively a Signature Road Worn (I think), so I'm guessing it'll be about £900 but discounted lower.

I like it, would happily gig one.  Would like it more with a big headstock to balance out the shape.

Showing as $1849 list price in USA will have to see what they do for UK

I was going to kid that it's not available in left handed but that would be cruel..

Well that would normally translate into £1,849!  :lol:

But I doubt they'll go that high for a MIM.

I quite like it. Though indeed those knobs are useless this close. 1800 quid would be quite pricey.

I've seen it online at $1299 right and left handed.

I really like this.
Any chance anyone knows of a cheaper alternative to the Fender-branded Jagstang?

jagstangs suck - this is much better as a cobain guitar

although i am rather enjoying my current mustang build - i was contemplating a hot rodded grungy  version

well, it is fender and they have been that silly with hendrix models... offering upside down lefties for the righties but none the other way round!  luckily this jag is available as both


ofcourse for anyone who doesnt like relicing, kurt cobain, the modified controls or the extra tuner they photoshopped onto the 3rd picture can look at the classic player jag HH, which is pretty similar

I'm buggered if I can spot the headstock with the extra tuner? The third picture on the film strip for me has 6 tuners.

Just looking at the prices again, the Wayne Kramer Strat has a list price of $1,300 and that sells for about £700 in the UK.

So on second thoughts I guess we're probably talking around a grand, discounted, for this Jag.  Not cheap.  :|

Cheers Wez, I think they've already changed it though as I've been seeing only 6 tuners since yesterday, your image is probably cached by your browser. $%&#ing funny though, whoever they farm their website management out to needs a slap, if they do it internally, well...
