Fender Jaguar CIJ Price: $560 us Year: 1991 Sound: 4/5 There are two different settings available for the guitar, which lead to, (A) When switched up, the rhythm curcuit, with two seperate roller knobs for volume and tone respectively and, (B) When switched down, the lead curcuit, which has two knobs for volume and tone respectively AND 3 switches to control up to 7 different tone configurations from mids to treble. The rhythm curcuit controls basically the low end of the sound. As for the sound itself, It's very twangy - like the surfer's era (and it's supposed to be). I like this sound, but the Japanese pickups didn't do it for me, so I've ordered a SD Antiquity II for the neck. Instrument Quality: 4/5 Everything is tip top except for the pickguard. The bevelled edges seem to stray from the chrome hardware in strange places. The strings will pop out of the saddles if plucked too hard, especially low E. (This can be easily fixed by straight swapping out with a Fender Mustang bridge - of which genuine ones are hard to come by...) Playbility: 4.5/5 The short scale neck makes it harder to play and sustain the notes above the 12th fret, but it is achievable. Overall Value: 5/5 Not everyone's cup of tea, but I love this thing.
