Absolutely! Neo Fender remains clueless when it comes to the coolest Guitar ever….
I think this is incredible. I hope tons of Nashville players will hear all this twang and adopt it.
I am saving this video and then I am going to learn all that surf stuff you do. Love it!
I loved that introduction ! Fabulous😳👍👍👍 You make it sound very cool!
Inspector Pipeline!!! He doesn't Walk, he Runs!!!
Ryan you're a beast! That intro song is one of the best I've ever heard! Sold me on the guitar from the first 2 bars and the jam just got better and better and better from there!
Awesome review and awesome playing! Cheers!!
I can't be the only one who was so relieved when you got rid of that last little bit of plastic at 23:23 🙂
Had a seafoam green Classic Vibe Jag as my main guitar about a decade ago but sold it. I'd been itching for that Jag swag ever since, so I pulled the trigger and bought a butter white Vintera II with the maple fretboard and black block inlays and I've been gliding ever since. Appreciate the Jag representation, Ryan!
Great job! The riff at 1:35 was mind bending! Epic! All I could think is, my best life would include fender sending me guitars! I like your style! My hot rod deluxe drips a lot like that maybe I’ll have to learn that “song” today!
Awesome video bro 🤘🏻
I had my Jag modified putting the two jag pickups joined together touching each other as two bridge pickups, they can be engaged separetly or toghether in series or in paralel. In series they produce a nice humbucker tone and it's a great addition to the palete. This second bridge pickup which is only an inch towards the neck has a great fatter sound, it could be considered a mid pickup but with the balls of a bridge pickup.
Killer intro, Ryan. Never been a fan of Player Series's non-traditional specs, but it sounds great.
I could get behind it..... but just needs more chrome. They also missed a huge opportunity, the three way switch should have been a 4 way to add the pickup in series option which is great on Jags for a beefy tone.
Nice little playing at the top🎉
Nice playing!
I think its cool - I was one of the people that really didn't like the Pau ferro (I bought loads of them running a shop for a time) so im very happy to see rosewood back - it seems to me on this intro run they have used quite dark rosewood too - hope that lasts!
6:42 "I like to be able to wrap my whole fist around my wiggle stick"...me too, brother...me, too...
Nice guitar, great playing, excellent shirt!
I like it! I kinda did the same thing to my Squier Jag that this one offers. I put a 4 way tele switch in for an out of phase option, and so I don't shut it off when strumming, haha. Took out the rhythm circuit (left the plate in for looks). Put a P90 in the bridge too. Such a fun guitar model to mess around with and play. C'mon folks, get a Jag of your own!
Great intro jam!
Fantastic and I want an Aquatone blue one now to match my player II jazz bass
The opening jam made me feel!
These musical intros make me want to watch Tarantino films immediately!
This thing sounds fantastic. Maybe I don't know what I'm missing but I think a lot of people will dig this guitar that aren't looking for something exactly like an old one
wow amazing playing
Heard the song "Non ho l'eta" by Gigliola Cinquetti on the radio last night and thought of you. That is the drippiest reverb I have ever heard.
It's like a Jag, but without all the fun stuff that makes a Jag what it is.

My 65 Jaguar is just fine. I wouldn't mind getting one of the Mustangs though.
I've never been a fan of the recycled design from the excellent Jazzcaster, but I do love the bright, confrontational, percussive glass sound of Jagcaster pick ups. I'd like a Meteora with these pick ups.
What's the actual dimensions of the pickup routes? They look small for Gibson-style humbuckers but maybe Firebird/mini humbuckers or Filtertrons?
If it was mine I’d do the telecaster 5 way switch mod, the extra 2 positions being both pickups being wired in parallel (or series if they’re wired parallel stock)and the other with some kind of capacitor to replicate the strangle circuit, or maybe both pickups out of phase, that way it still looks stock.
It's different but I like it! Recently got a 70s vibe in black and like that too!🎸🎸👍👍 I'd go with the tortoiseshell guard!
As a lefty, I would've bought one of these the second they were announced As well as one of the mustangs And then I would've saved up to buy one of the mustang basses. And I am not alone. I am part of quite a few Reddit threads where there are thousands and thousands of fresh posts all talking about this, no love for the lefties. They don't even have a left-handed bass. At all.
I love the Player Series I with the humbuckers, particularly the Jazzmaster
I’m interested in the Mustang. Love that the Player II series keeps the short scales in the lineup. Wish we got daphne blue instead of aquatone blue but 🤷🏼♀️
what do you use to connect the guitar to the computer? Is it just mic'ed up and you sync it in post?

Pau Ferro done right is beautiful. Had some before CITIES and it was like ebony in feel. Fender just didn't spend the time on them and they were dry and rough on the Mexico stuff. So everyone remembers Pau Ferro as rough, but orange streaks and dry. Which isn't true. Plus the benefit was that it wasn't an endangered/overharvested species of tree.
It’s like the Johnny Marr Jag, but missing the two switches up top. (Well you’d need to swap in a 4-way switch).
thoughts on the squier affinity jaguar with most of the same tech as this guitar?
I ended up trying string joyous part of the hoop jumpers Club and I will never go back I had always preferred the daddario's put the stringjoy strings allow me to set my Les Paul and Tele lower than I ever have and they just feel great.
If you give them a rhythm circuit and a strangle switch on a Player, why would they pay the extra for a Vintera?
I haven’t paid much attention to Jags prior to this video, but man that thing has great tone. It sounds exceptionally good through your Princetons. Modding it cosmetically would be cool, but personally, I wouldn’t mess with that tone. If only it came in Shell Pink with a matching headstock and a Vintage Pearloid pickguard. Very nice!
I really like the blackguard with white body. Don’t think I’ve seen a Jag with that combo before. But honestly it looks like something is missing even if I wouldn’t use the rhythm circuit. I like the switch better this way for sure.
BAck in the day i had a white jag... ... might be time to get another one 😍
Love your playing and taste in tunes Ryan! What do you use to hydrate the fretboards on your guitars? Thanks!

See, I was never a fan of the switching, and am not a trem user at all, but have gotten along really well with jaguar necks and bodies if not even utilized to their full potential. So, while I would prefer both a hardtail and a string through, making this basically just a Tele sans the trem, the jaguar is the most intriguing to me in the series in terms of having Alnico 5 and 2 single coils, but ultimately I’m not sure if it’s the most attractive buy in the series or if any of them are really necessary. Rolled fingerboard edge will certainly be appreciated but don’t justify the price at all.
Ryan did you file the string slots on the nut for it to take higher gauge strings or did they just hop in without a problem?
@60CycleHumcast
14 күн бұрын
No problem
That's interesting that they routed it for humbuckers but didn't go ahead and route for the missing rhythm circuit. The first player series Jaguar had a small routed area up there for that single switch they had.
The best, no nonsense Jaguar out there for the money..bridge, classic gear tuners, decent stock pickups ? Take my $800
Seems like a good value. I would miss the rhythm section and the most complicated switching, but it’s what we have been asking for-a cheaper Fender.
@JosephX74

Cheaper? It’s $829 for absolutely no reason.
neck seems very similar to MiM Jag-Stangs. Is it as thin????
Dear Ryan I was expected your review!.... this Jaguar sounds REALLY GREAT.... the only thing I would love to have included is a humbucker in the bridge...My duo sonic 2022 has one....and its one of the best humbuckers I have played.... this jaguar is missing big part part of the original electronic, but personally I consider two priorities, to have a great sound and great playabilty.... and this Jaguar looks like accomplished both....thanks and best regards from Bolivia...... one question...in the midle position do the pickups had Hum cancelling?
I'm not sure how I feel about the relocated tailpiece, but other than that I like what I see. One of my favorite players has what I assume is a partscaster (partsguar?) with a similar setup and I like the idea of simplifying the circuitry and getting rid of a lot of extra wire that for me never gets used.
can you fit a humbucker in the routing? it looked big
@60CycleHumcast
15 күн бұрын
If not some light chiseling would get you there.
@60 Cycle Hum... Could you fit two Jaguar pickups (with claws) next to each other in those routes? Could be interesting if you wired them in humbucker style fashion or whatever. Similar to the original Dipinto Galaxie 4s? Also... if you go mint guard but keep the single could Jag pickups, I'd probably change from the aged/parchment color they are to something else. Might look funky against the mint. As it is I kinda don't even like how they are yellow to the body's pure white.
I wanted to say “that’s what she said “ so many times. Nice guitar
Nice!
I like it but if I were in the market for a Jag I think I'd go for a Vintera or a Squier VM for the more classic spec.

But even those are incomplete without the mute. They do sell it separately, but it really should come standard.
what reverb were you using at 11:23 and onward?
A Jaguar should have Jaguar pickups- good move! The humbucker in the old model made me go another way
I bet you could fit a gibson 3 way and a single vertical strangle in that little space. You would just need to cut a new pickguard for it
6:58 "But I never pull out"...me either, brother...me either...
Playing it right !!!
been doin' some wacky wigglestickin'
I feel like I’m the only person that likes Pau Ferro. Enjoyed the video.
A 4 way switch, and a brown shell guard.............yeah. 4 ways go on any Tele I get. The 4th position in series is really useful for gigs.
My Squier Jaguar which was $400 (about 10 years ago) seems 100% unquestioningly “Jaguar”.
I'd consider moving the 3-way switch to where the rhythm controls would be, but put it at an angle. 😊
Oh hell yes, Lord of the 7-Seas in his glory!
Never owned a jag, but I think the standard switching appointments would put me off. I'd be more likely to go for a simple one like this. Maybe the strangle switch could be added on the upper bout as a nod to visual nostalgia, without compromising the playing simplicity that has obviously been a design goal here.
That Pelham Blue SG is beautiful! Is that a Murphy Lab?
That tailpiece is identical to the first Player Jaguar one.
Groovy 😎

Love the sound but I’m really disappointed that there is not a rhythm circuit or strangle switch. All I’ve wanted from fender is a reasonably priced vintage spec jag with a rosewood fretboard. If it was routed for the upper circuit, I could see picking one up to mod but I don’t want to have to cut a brand new guitar.
Surf Jorts! 🤘
Your 巨大リス (giant squirrel) tee looks cool. btw, the Jaguar without preset tone circuit looks weird to me.
I would love to see this up against the classic vibe Jaguar.
I'd like this compared to the new $300 one coming out from squier
I liked the HH jazzmaster version except the pickups. They just sounded blah. Not bad but not great. I would guess a super distortion bridge and a medium output neck pickup would make for a nice option.
I never pull out, too!!
My pickguard suggestion: gold MOTO. If you're gonna add some flash, go full ham.
A wiggle jingle! Yay
never understood cumbersome jaguar switching, this seems better imo.
