FENDER 2015 Classic Player Jaguar Special Candy Apple Red Rosewood! 83670
Description (more pics below!)
This is a 2015 Fender Classic Player Jaguar Special in a beautiful Candy Apple Red finish. It has a rosewood fretboard, which is a bonus. After 2016, Fender started using inferior Pau Ferro. Features:
— Alder body/maple neck/rosewood board—aged 7 yrs
— C-shaped neck w/ 9.5” radius & med. jumbo frets
— Classic Jaguar electronics: lead/rhythm circuits
These Jaguars in Candy Apple Red look beautiful with an offset body and rear contour. A standout on this one are the fretboard and frets. The board is a rich, dark rosewood (so much better than the current Pau Ferro boards). Plays great all over the neck. Cosmetically, it has a few edge marks (see pics). Weight is 8 pounds, 7 ounces. Comes with tremolo bar but no case. Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing. Thanks for looking!

Guitar Setup
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 15 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 "Still Kickin - How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
