Fender 2016 Classic Player Jaguar Special Creamery Pickups +Mustang Bridge 43695

Description (More pics below)
This is a 2016 Fender Classic Player Jaguar Special in Candy Apple Red finish in excellent playing and cosmetic condition. It has upgraded pickups & bridge. Weight = 8lbs, 12oz.

Condition
Cosmetically, the guitar looks near mint. No dings or scratches. I pictured one very light scuff on the back. Frets are in excellent condition. Pickups were upgraded to The Creamery Alt 88 (Mid-Range version, dated May 2024). These are $200 UK-made hand-wound pickups. Also, the bridge has been upgraded to a Mustang bridge. More sustain, less twang and buzz. It's a well-known drop-in replacement on Jaguars.

Features
— Offset alder body, maple neck
— C-profile, 9.5" radius neck w/ Rosewood fretboard
— Hot single-coil Jaguar pickups
— Traditional Lead/Rhythm circuit

Sound & Playability
This guitar plays like a champ all over the neck. All electronics work perfectly. Rosewood fretboard feels much better under the hands than the newer Pau Ferro (you want 2016 or earlier). Classic Jaguar switching. Great sounding pickups. I do a full setup and expert packing: details below.  Comes with tremolo bar but no case. Thanks for looking.
 PS: I ship to most countries in Europe (not France), Asia, and Oceania--contact for quote!

Short video showing how I pack a guitar.

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. 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.

About Me
My store is a one-person small business that has been selling used guitars and basses for 15 years now. I do a basic setup and cleaning on every instrument I sell, so depending on workload it may be 1-2 business days before your guitar ships. When it arrives you can depend on it being, clean, set up, and securely packed. Check my feedback for confirmation. Thanks!
