FENDER 2008 CLASSIC PLAYER JAGUAR Special HH RARE First Year White Offset 21887
Description
This is a 2008 Fender Classic Player Jaguar Special in Olympic White finish. This is the first year of production and has a rare white pickguard which may have been added by previous owner. Looks great. Also comes with a Mustang bridge, which many consider an upgrade from the stock bridge. The offset body with rear body contour looks and feels great on this guitar. Dual Fender Enforcer humbuckers give it some extra umph under the hood.
Modern C-shape neck with 9.5" radius and rosewood fingerboard (better than the Pau Ferro on newer ones!). This guitar is ready to play and enjoy. All electronics work great. Frets in very clean condition. Cosmetically it has various marks, including a paint crack at the neck joint (see pics). Weight is 8 pounds, 6 ounces. Tremolo arm included but no case. (Details on my setups/packing at bottom of listing.) Thanks for looking.

Guitar Setup
All our setups are done by our in-house trained luthier. Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 10 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.

As soon as you lay eyes on the Classic Player Jaguar Special HH, you know you're in for a treat. This Jag has all the hallmarks of the classics: a distinctive body shape, a 4-ply brown shell pickguard, retro-cool switches and knobs, and the unmistakable tremolo. But plug this Jaguar in and hang on, because its duet of Enforcer humbuckers gives you thoroughly modern output to drive any amp's input.
Revamped electronics for a whole new Jaguar experience
The Classic Player Jaguar Special HH includes revised electronics that give you more flexibility than you'd expect from a Jaguar. A blendable coil tap means you can coax an array of tones from this axe, from thick and crunchy to clean and dynamic.
Play with comfort and confidence
Fender made the Jaguar's neck even more comfortable, giving the Classic Player Jaguar Special HH very impressive playability to go along with its updated output and electronics. This neck features a 9.5" pau ferro fingerboard radius, and its pocket has an increased back angle for improved stability and sustain.
