Description

Johnny Marr is the guitarist, arranger and songwriter behind The Smiths, the band that redefined British pop and took the music scene by storm in the 1980s. A master of crafting memorable, dynamic melodies, layers and textures, Johnny has developed a unique talent that is instantly recognizable through his solo work and countless guest appearances with The The, Pretenders, Modest Mouse, Cribs and more.

The Johnny Marr Jaguar is based on Johnny Marr’s 1965 Jaguar and features a custom-shaped maple neck with vintage-style heel truss rod adjustment. It features a vintage-style 22-fret, 7.25″-radius rosewood fingerboard. Packed with

special features, this model is based on Johnny’s modified 1965 Jaguar and is ideal for the discerning, unconventional guitarist. Two custom-wound Bare Knuckle Johnny Marr single-coil pickups create a razor-sharp tone that cuts through the band. A four-position blade pickup switch features a series-wiring option for a thicker tone with higher output, while two slide switches on the upper horn roll off the low end globally or in position 4 for a brighter tone. The
Jaguar bridge has been modified to Johnny’s specifications with Mustang saddles, chrome covers and nylon post inserts for improved tuning and performance stability. The
vintage-style floating tremolo features a tall tremolo arm with nylon sleeve insert for a secure fit in any position. The

hardware and chrome control plate on this model add a futuristic appeal to the sleek offset design. Finished in nitrocellulose lacquer, the Johnny Marr Jaguar will age naturally to reflect the player’s personality and playing style. An update to Fender’s classic design, the Johnny Marr Jaguar supports a performance that is as unique and flexible as the sound he plays.
