1966 Fender Jaguar CAR

With original Candy Apple Red finish and a matching headstock, this 1966 Fender Jaguar is a great looking machine. A transitional build, this 1966 Jaguar features Fender ‘F’ tuners and neckplate, dot fingerboard markers and all 1965-dated parts. It’s completely original but for the output jack, a recent refret, and a new nut, and has had a fresh set-up here at Folkway.

The guitar has seen plenty of use and there are a good number of dings along the body’s edges, an extra strap-hole drilled into the body below the neck pocket, and a small, repaired ding in the neck up by the 15th fret. We’ve removed the original mute and tossed it in the case pocket as they are generally terrible and rattly. It’s easy to reinstall if you’d like it on the guitar.

The guitar’s tone is truly exceptional, the original pickups are perfect and the circuitry is untouched save for the jack. The pickup DC values are both 6.7k. Weight is 8.4lbs. Neck thickness at the 1st fret is .85” and is .86” at the 12th fret. 24” scale, 15/8” nut.
