SOLD: Fender CS Jaguar

What's Hot

Selling my Fender Custom Shop Jaguar. It's a Journeyman relic from 2019 in a rather lovely surf green which, as everyone knows, is the best colour on a Jag.



Bought new by me from Wallet Wrecker in Chief @DougCoda - plays fabulously and the CS pickups to my ears are the best a Jag can sound.

Specs are set out in the spec sheet - and even the weight.

Great condition and no issues at all.

£2,750. Collection from Harrogate or I may be able to drive a bit to facilitate a drop-off.

Also selling this rather stunning Frank Bros Arcade guitar in a very lovely TV Shell pink - NOW SOLD ELSEWHERE. 





Fairly rare this side of the Atlantic, this is a truly fabulous guitar handbuilt over in Toronto. I bought this in November 2022 - the link to the specific guitar is here:

Using their words:

Featuring a pair of Lollar P90s and MojoAxe Wrap Bridge - don’t let the cheerful TV Shell Pink finish fool you, this beauty rips!

The TV Shell Pink is slightly transparent (like a TV Yellow Finish), which shows off the grain of the mahogany top and makes for an extra dynamic but beautifully subtle look! Finished off with a dark tortoiseshell pickguard, Kluson Deluxe tuners with white buttons, dots inlays, and an immaculately wired 2 x Vol., 2 x Tone, 3-way toggle control configuration.

They don't sell through dealers anymore, only direct. You can see from this page showing sold guitars that these are normally circa £4,400, plus of course VAT and Customs:

Lovely review here in Guitar Magazine:

https://guitar.com/review/frank-brothers-arcade-model-review/#:~:text=It pairs amazingly well with,with a hand-carved heel.

It's pretty much new and is only being ousted as I am buying back (insert clown emoji here) a 345 that I have just sold and it's one in, one out. Comes with the sexiest hard case I have EVER seen. Truly lovely.

These are genuinely wonderful guitars. I know that @Jtaylor has one and will happily sing its praises to you.

This guitar was reduced for Black Friday and I'm looking for £3,500, now £3,250 - as these guitars go, I think it's a bit of a bargain (although I'm conscious when saying this that it's still a huge chunk of change for a guitar).

Collection from Harrogate. Happy to drive a little to meet.

Any questions, let me know. 

And a festive pic from Frank Bros' Instagram page:

    I can certainly attest to Frank Brothers being great guitars. I have one myself and it became my number 1 almost instantly. 

    @Hattigol ;is also a top chap to deal with. If I had the funds, I would be buying this myself!

    I've lusted after a Franks Brothers guitar for a few years now, they look so so good. I'm not in a buying position at the moment (would also prefer a black signature!), GLWTS!

    Imagine a fair few will want this one! That korina one they just made with all the explorer appointments was so good. One of the few new boutique guitars that I can get on board with.

    Was lucky enough to play this today! Wow what a guitar!!!

    I’ve told Stephen to keep it, it’s like a piece of Mid Century art.
    Someone on here should really snap this up before he changes his mind.
