Offspring of the Jazzmaster, the Jaguar paired brighter pickups with a mellow, short 24 in. scale length. A trio of sliding pickup selector switches, rotary volume wheels on the upper bout, and chrome hardware and tremolo lock, are distinctive Jaguar traits. The wacky and removable Fender Mute is a built-in string-damping device created with surf bands in mind.
