"9/10"

LOVE IT CARE FOR IT THRASH IT !
Sound
this guitar when combined with hard hitting boss pedals such as ds-1/2 can give an sound with such a kick it nearly blows you away ! (have also found to sound well with ml-2) also, personally, this guitar has a very nice 'raw' sound. if you dont already own any form of chorus pedal or have anyway of adding chorus to this guitar please do so. the results will speak for them selves. the only downfall for the sound would be the original pick-ups but these can be replaced if needed but to be perfectly honest if you have this guitar you wont care less. 9/10
Features
it has the mustangs infamous dynamic vibrato bridge which for me just makes it all feel and play like a mustang a nice 24" scale and in most cases (as jagstangs are being a rare endangered guitar) they have a alder body. the only problem i have found with this guitar was simply catching my finger on the switchs while playing live. THATS IS IT !!
Ease of Use
what can i say ? it sounds imense, it plays like a mustang, it has the likability of a jaguar and the stinging full sound of a jaguar !
Quality
never fell more in love with any other guitar the product is not really well thought of as it was just Kurt Cobain's 2 favorite guitars slung together but i dont think i have ever had any problems with the wiring or any faults ! apart from teh odd ocation were my cable comes out of the jack but that could just be down to me as i have had similar problems with a number of guitars.
Value
due to the price, rarity and demand for the jagstang (as they are not making anymore reissues as of yet) it is worth buying if you are a collector but it a superb buy.
Manufacturer Support
i am a big fan of Fender guitars and i must say this by far is my favorite.
The Wow Factor
if i could have a love child with this guitar i would. i LOVE IT more than any other guitar i have ever played.

"If you love kurt youll love this guitar!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
A jag stang is for life and not just for one gig. Kurt smashed up many mustangs in gigs but treasured this guitar saying "im gonna have to keep this for recording". i stick by his desicion to treasure the guitar and keep it with me till death due us part!
Sound
Tipifies the true kurt cobain feel, looks great in red but i prefer the blue, as he used it in his 1993 world tour.
Features
kewl pickups and kurt has picked up on the best features of the Mustang and the jaguar, its got a great shape and the sound quality is amazing
Quality
some say the guitar does not look good on the eyes, and the origional luthier himself feared that the guitar would be too heavy to balance with a strap. At the end of the day if u love nirvana you should get this guitar
Value
if you love nirvana then its worth buying just to look at. I am saving up for it myself at the moment, and think that any keen guitarist would love it too
Manufacturer Support
FENDER. nothing more to say really.
The Wow Factor
wow! its the guitar that kurt cobain designed! he knew in his head exactly what he wanted, and the luthier made his dream come true. I love the whole feel of the guitar

"A MUST READ BEFORE PURCHASING A JAG-STANG !!!!!!!!!!"

Overall: 2 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Sound
The pickups are very weak that come with it. I replaced the humbucker with a Duncan JB ans it still sounds like crap. The guitar is just poorly made. Kurt would roll over in his grave if he knew such a poorly made guitar had his name on it.
Features
it works like a fender mustang....very easy to use.
Quality
I heard that it was made in the same factory that squiers are made...does that tell you enough?
Value
Not worth the price for playing purposes but very collectable
The Wow Factor
It looks very cool but body isn't contoured like most fenders other than tele.
