Cobain design with high playing comfort
The Fender Jag-Stang is naturally based on the design the Nirvana frontman developed from his favourite guitars Jaguar and Mustang. The slim offset alder body promises agile handling on stage and in the studio, while the bolt-on maple neck offers comfortable playing characteristics thanks to the short 24" scale and slim C-profile.
Flexible Sound
With its specially designed pickups, the Kurt Cobain Jag-Stang delivers typical grunge sounds for melancholy driving riffs and melancholic clean passages. The powerful Jag-Stang humbucker at the bridge promises juicy distortion, while the Jag-Stang single coil delivers moderate sounds with high clarity. To adjust the tone, the Jag-Stang has an innovative circuit with two slide switches that switch the pickups on, off or out-of-phase.
Vintage-Style Hardware
Last but not least, a hardware setup inspired by the Fender Mustang completes the Kurt Cobain Jag-Stang Sonic Blue. The classic Mustang tremolo with a 6-saddle adjustable bridge promises dynamic vibrato action, while vintage-style tuners ensure precise and stable tuning of the signature guitar.
Beautiful instrument! The sound is just what I am after. Setting it up to my preference with the neck and bridge took some time, but that is because I have only owned a Deluxe Strat for the past 15 years. Once I got used to working with the Mustang bridge and the smaller neck I REALLY started to enjoy playing this thing.
