Fender Kurt Cobain Road Worn Jaguar Left Handed Sunburst 2011 Fender

Fender Kurt Road Worn Jag, lefty, sunburst relic, made in Mexico 2011. Very few guitar players changed the music world as much as Kurt Cobain. You can buy a new Kurt model these days, but that’s not the same guitar as this. This is a first year example of the Road Worn series version, so it’s finished in nitro and given the relic treatment. It’s got the Kurt-specs: three way toggle switch, three knob control plate, tune-o-matic style bridge, Dimarzio humbuckers. All that adds up to a big, hairy tone. There’s heaps of crunchy, warm mids and a big, dirty low end wallop, it’s very convincing indeed. The neck and headstock show off some gorgeous birds-eye grain in the maple too, it’s a lovely piece of wood and feels great in the hand. These come up in this part of the world approximately never, so if you’re a southpaw Nirvana tragic who’s been waiting for the right moment, you’ve probably got one chance. Entertain us.
