For your consideration we have a very rare L-Series Fender Jaguar in custom black with mint green guard that comes with some impressive indie rock lineage. Currently owned by Finn Andrews of The Veils, this guitar has appeared on numerous albums by the band and is one of two vintage Fender guitars that Finn has used live around the world over the last ten years. Purchased from Chicago Music Exchange and showing a few battle scars, it's in fantastic playable shape after a recent professional set up.

All original aside from the Mastery bridge that is fitted, the original bridge with mute is in the case along with the original Fender swing tags! With nigh on 60 years of play, the gloss on the back of the neck is worn through the from frets one to five. The frets themselves are in great condition as are the the electrics which are original. Aside from the ample buckle rash and battle scars (which all have a tale to tell) this axe is in fantastic shape.

Made popular by the surf groups of the early '60s the Jaguar had somewhat of a renaissance in the '90s thanks to it's unpopularity and low price tags at the time. This made if the perfect guitar for cash strapped alternative musicians of the era, and so the guitar found it's way into the hands of Kurt Cobain, Thurston Moore and Kevin Shields (to name but a few) who popularised the guitar once again. Now you can get your own 60s Fender offset guitar with it's own indie rock lineage.
