Johnny Marr is best known as the strikingly dynamic guitarist-arranger-songwriter behind the Smiths, who redefined and ruled U.K. pop in the 1980s. A master of melody, layering, and texture, Marr has brought his own instantly identifiable genius to the proceedings ever since, in stints with The Pretenders, Modest Mouse and the Cribs - to say nothing of his solo career and innumerable guest appearances. The Fender Johnny Marr Jaguar 6-String Right-Handed Electric Guitar is a fantastically non-standard model that is as distinctive as the sounds he wrings from it.Four-Way Switch PickupRather than traditional slide switches, Marr's signature Jaguar has a special four-way blade pickup switch on the lower horn, delivering the bridge pickup alone, the bridge and neck pickups in parallel, the neck pickup alone, and the bridge pickups in series.Bridge Post or Tremolo Arm Sleeve Nylon InsertsThe Johny Marr Jaguar features special nylon bridge-post inserts for improved bridge stability, and a taller tremolo arm with a nylon-sleeve insert to keep it from swinging loose.Nitrocellulose Lacquer FinishNitrocellulose lacquer is one of the great original-era Fender electric guitar finishes, and is still used today on select instruments. Thin, porous, and delicate, it's a premium finish prized for sonic qualities that let body woods breathe with their true tonal character and for an appearance that ages and wears in a distinctive way, appealing to many players.Custom Neck ProfileIn an especially authentic touch, the neck on this signature model has a comfortably broken-in custom profile (the shape of the neck in cross section) based directly on Marr's 1965 Jaguar.Bare Knuckle PickupsFor specially voiced tone worthy of such an inventive and versatile guitarist, this Jaguar is built with 'Bare Knuckle' Johny Marr single-coil custom-wound neck and bridge pickups.Two Bright Slide SwitchesIn an extra-special design element, the upper horn of the Johny Marr Jaguar features two slide switches- a universal bright switch that kicks everything up a notch or two, and a separate bright switch that only affects the 'series' pickup switch position.
