Fender Kurt Cobain Jag-Stang RW Sonic Blue

Bursting with teen spirit and not quite all apologies, capture Nirvana-infused playability from Fender's one of kind artist collaboration with the late great guitarist, Kurt Cobain.

Grunge Soaked Bite

Inspired by a brainstorm and the merging of two polaroid photographs, the tone that inspired an entire decade has been brought to the modern-day with the Fender Kurt Cobain Jag-Stang RW, seen here in a lush Sonic Blue.

The distinctive amalgamation of two classic Fender models, the Jaguar and the Mustang, the Jag-Stang is a concept originated by the man himself back in 1993 when working with the Custom Shop. Becoming a prototype model he played on stage numerous times in the late stages of his career, the Jag-Stang model has remained a staple within the guitar titan's niche designs. This is why the model has been reissued many times over the years due to its popularity.

Ruthless and unrefined, the Jag-Stang model is perfect for aggressive playing styles that's more on the unpolished side. Whether it's raw cleans or vicious distorted riffs, this Artist Series model is the six-string for you!

Fender Kurt Cobain Jag-Stang RW Sonic Blue Features:

• Unique Jag-Stang Body Shape for Comfortable Playability
• Alder Body for Lightweight but Full-Bodied Tone
• Sleek-playing Maple neck, with a bound Rosewood fingerboard and Pearloid dot inlays
• Jag-Stang Humbucker in the Bridge and Jag-Stang Single Coil in the Neck for that Classic Cobain Tone

Teen Spirit Bite

Ruthless and unfiltered, Kurt Cobain's guitar tone is instantly recognisable due to its face value natural sonic quality. To replicate this to the best of their ability, Fender has fitted this Artist Series guitar with a Jag-Stang Humbucker in the bridge, and a Jag-Stang Single Coil in the neck.

The result is spectacular, whether your playing Heart-Shaped Box or Lithium, the Kurt Cobain Jag-Stang ticks all boxes. Accompanied with tone controls, capture a dynamically dark intensity and bite that defined the grunge era!

Time Capsule Design

Pulling out all the stops to match the exact design used on the prototype back in '93, Fender has articulately crafted every aspect of the Jag-Stang with the utmost precision. From the tonewoods to the hardware, this Artist model has been built to recreate Cobain's original brainstorm vision.

Showcasing a robust Alder body, a shorter scaled Maple neck, a lush Rosewood fingerboard, an aged white Pearloid pickguard and a sleek Sonic Blue finish, the Jag-Stang is the pinnacle of 90s grunge nostalgia bundled into one.
