🎸 1996/97 Fender Japan Kurt Cobain Jag-Stang, Fiesta Red 🎸

Load up on guns, bring your friends, because this one is 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲! Designed by Kurt Cobain himself by mashing a Jaguar and a Mustang together, the Jag-Stang is one of the most 𝐢𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐨𝐟𝐟𝐬𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞. This is an 𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝟏𝟗𝟗𝟔/𝟗𝟕 𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐉𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐧 example in 𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐝, from the very first years of production.

🔥 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐌𝐀𝐊𝐄𝐒 𝐈𝐓 𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋 🔥
✅ 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐊𝐮𝐫𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐢𝐧, a true piece of 90s rock history
✅ 𝐄𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝟏𝟗𝟗𝟔/𝟗𝟕 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, first-run era
✅ 𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐉𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐧 build quality
✅ 𝐅𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡 that screams attitude
✅ 𝟏𝟎𝟎% 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥
✅ 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐮𝐩 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧

🎶 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐓𝐎𝐍𝐄 🎶
That humbucker in the bridge brings 𝐟𝐚𝐭, 𝐠𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐲 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐫 for loud, quiet, loud dynamics, while the single coil in the neck gives you 𝐣𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐲, 𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐲 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬. Flip the pickup switches and you've got a whole palette of tones, from dreamy indie shimmer to full-on garage-rock fuzz. Plug it into a cranked amp and a distortion pedal and you'll be in Seattle, 1991.

🎸 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐄𝐄𝐋 🎸
The 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝟐𝟒" 𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐞 makes bends effortless and chords feel slinky and comfortable, and the offset body hugs you whether you're sitting or standing. Like every guitar I sell, it's been 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐮𝐩 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 for optimal tone and playability. It 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭.

💥 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐊 💥
This Jag-Stang has 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞! Tons of dings, dents, scratches, chips and playwear give it that 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝-𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐧 𝐦𝐨𝐣𝐨 people pay extra to fake. Let's be honest, Kurt never babied his guitars, and a pristine Jag-Stang just doesn't feel right. This one is 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫-𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐲, so you can grab it and rock it with zero worries about adding the first scratch. 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧'𝐭 𝐟𝐚𝐤𝐞.

Early MIJ, all original, Cobain's own design. Come as you are, but 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐞, because this Jag-Stang won't last! 🤘

🔥 This guitar (or bass) has been professionally set up and dialed in for optimal tone and playability. Unless otherwise noted in the listing, It features low action with no buzzing or dead spots, perfect intonation, a brand-new set of American-made Ernie Ball strings, and a straight neck with a fully functional truss rod. We make sure all frets are leveled, dressed, crowned, and polished to a mirror shine. The fingerboard has been thoroughly cleaned (unfinished rosewood and ebony boards are treated with Fret Doctor, a premium all-natural oil). All electronics function flawlessly. The guitar has been deep-cleaned and detailed and arrives stage- or studio-ready. 🔥

Our Guarantee  

We stand behind every guitar we sell. “Good enough” is never good enough. Every instrument is inspected, set up, and tested by multiple people immediately before shipping. We deliver the highest standard of quality and have built a reputation as a three-time NAMM Top 100 Dealer since 2009. The Dude Abides.  

Neck & Setup - (unless otherwise noted)

- Neck is perfectly straight with no truss-rod issues. 

- Intonation is spot-on.  

- Professionally set up with low action and new American-made strings.  

- All frets are dressed, leveled, crowned (if needed), and all frets on all guitars are polished to shine like new with no divots.  

Return Policy, Restocking Fees & No Tire-Kicking Policy 

We follow Reverb’s 7-day return policy. However:  

- You must 

notify us in writing within 3 days of delivery (per tracking) of your intent to return.  

- Original shipping and return shipping costs are not refunded unless the guitar is damaged in transit or is significantly not as described. (For example you order red and get white, a Telecaster instead of a Les Paul etc. 

- A 15% restocking fee applies to all returns for any reason other than damage in transit or significantly not as described.  Please note there is a 10% restocking fee on guitar orders that have been purchased and paid for - that have been off the market for 24 hours or more, even if they have not been shipped or picked up by the carrier. We perform a final set up and change strings put when an order is placed and paid for. NO EXCEPTIONS

We do our best to honestly describe and photograph every guitar and most of the noticeable imperfections. That said, we are human, if something very small can be overseen, if tiny marks, dings or super fine scratches (normal wear) bother you, please don't buy.

We record demo videos of every guitar before shipping to document exact condition and performance. Additional photos, measurements, or in-hand descriptions are available upon request prior to purchase.  

Minor adjustments and tweaks to a set up (for example to correct a slight buzz or truss-rod tweak) are normal after shipping due to carrier mishandling the package, climate & atmospheric changes, especially when moving from South Florida to colder or less humid environments. These slight issues do not constitute “significantly not as described.” Guitars must be returned in the exact same condition as received/advertised or additional repair/restocking fees will apply.  

We are a small family owned and run business, not a big-chain retailer. We invest significant time, money and effort into every guitar. This is a NO TIRE-KICKING shop. There is no post purchase haggling, returns without restocking fees or partial refunds. If minor cosmetic marks, tiny imperfections, odors/smells, or the possibility of a post-shipping setup tweak makes you uncomfortable, please do not buy. Plenty of large retailers offer free trials and can absorb shipping costs—we do not.  

Payment, Shipping & International Duties  

- All items can be shipped internationally. Buyer is fully responsible for all import duties, taxes, and customs fees.  

- We accept PayPal, PayPal Credit, Affirm, and other major payment methods.  

- Most U.S. shipments are sent via UPS or FedEx with full insurance, tracking, and signature confirmation. All packages are professionally packed for maximum protection.  

International Shipping Note 

International shipping prices shown are for most countries. Certain countries have higher costs. We try and avoid USPS and mostly ship UPS, but USPS is the only available or reasonable carrier in certain situations. Express services (UPS, DHL, FedEx) are always available. We can’t under value merchandise as it can not be properly insured. If you would like to discuss different avenues, contact us by email or phone for a personalized quote.  

Thank you for considering The Guitar Dude. We look forward to earning your business and delivering a guitar that exceeds your expectations. Contact us anytime for questions, consignment inquiries, layaway details, or a personalized shipping quote.
