Brooks, only one of which was ever played by Cobain himself.<br /><br /><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; width: 400px; height: 231px;" src="http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/tt178/gfender/Fender-Jag-Stang-G-Fender.jpg" alt="" border="0" />Originally produced in the fall of 1995, after Kurt Cobain's death, Fender Japan reissued the Jag-Stang two years after its 2001 cancellation due to popular demand. Fender once again discontinued importing the Jag-Stang as of 2005.<br /><br /><center><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vGWcandRsjo&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vGWcandRsjo&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Fender Jag-Stang w/ EMG Pickups<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/qURYNTWli7E&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/qURYNTWli7E&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Medley Nirvana / Kurt Cobain (Fender Jag-Stang)by Solino</center>Adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06629793688491281650noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989486202925550051.post-37135594879993169892009-03-11T04:52:00.000-07:002009-03-11T04:52:00.146-07:00Fender Mustang<img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/tt178/gfender/Fender-Mustang-G-Fender.jpg" alt="" border="0" /><br />The <span style="font-weight: bold;">Fender Mustang</span> is an electric guitar introduced in 1964 as the basis of a major redesign of Fender's student models then consisting of the Musicmaster and Duo-Sonic. It was produced until 1982 and reissued in 1990.<br /><br />In the 60's, it was used in Surf music. It attained cult status in the 1990s largely as a result of its use by a number of alternative rock bands. Early examples are generally seen as the most collectible of all the short-scale Fender guitars.<br /><br />The Fender Mustang features two single coil pickups with an unusual switching configuration, and a unique tremolo arm shared with only its derivative the Fender Jag-Stang. It was originally available in two scale lengths.<br /><br /><center><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/oDwpCtLx4QU&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/oDwpCtLx4QU&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Fender Mustang 1965 Reissue<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3xrg4mbZgqA&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3xrg4mbZgqA&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Fender Mustang 1964<br /></center>Adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06629793688491281650noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989486202925550051.post-55380923204922356072009-02-28T04:40:00.000-08:002009-02-28T04:40:00.886-08:00Fender Jaguar<img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; width: 400px; height: 160px;" src="http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/tt178/gfender/Fender-Jaguar-G-Fender.jpg" alt="" border="0" /><br />The <span style="font-weight: bold;">Fender Jaguar</span> is an electric guitar which was introduced in 1962. Whether the designers of the Fender Jaguar had intended the instrument to be used for Surf music or if it was a further attempt to break into the Jazz guitar market (as was the case with its predecessor the Jazzmaster) remains a topic of dispute among Jaguar aficionados.<br /><br />Nevertheless, the Jaguar quickly caught on in the emerging surf music scene, joining the Fender Jazzmaster, Mosrite and Fender Stratocaster as the guitars most associated with the style. They both became popular again in the 1990s when they were used by a number of indie rock bands.<br /><br />Intended as Fender's top of the line guitar upon its release in 1962, the Fender Jaguar never enjoyed the popularity that the Stratocaster and Telecaster did.<br /><br />After several upgrades (custom finishes, a bound neck and pearloid block inlays), the entire Fender Jaguar range was given a maple fingerboard with black binding and block inlays before being discontinued in 1975 after a thirteen year production run.<br /><br /><br /><center><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8w8rqPZAQh0&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8w8rqPZAQh0&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Fender Jaguar HH guitar demo<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/egwqWBOth7o&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/egwqWBOth7o&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Fender Jaguar Test<br /><br /></center>Adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06629793688491281650noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989486202925550051.post-52809000578883535812009-02-20T03:43:00.000-08:002009-02-20T04:36:40.648-08:00Fender Jazzmaster<img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/tt178/gfender/Fender-Jazzmaster-G-Fender.jpg" alt="" border="0" /><br />The <span style="font-weight: bold;">Fender Jazzmaster</span> is an electric guitar that was first introduced at the 1958 NAMM Show and was designed as a more upmarket instrument than the Fender Stratocaster, which was originally to replace the Telecaster model. As its name indicates, it was initially marketed at jazz guitarists but was more commonly played by surf rock guitarists in the early 1960s and, more recently, by indie rock artists.<br /><br />The Fender Jazzmaster was officially discontinued in 1980, although some reports suggest no guitars were actually made after 1977 and guitars sold from 1978–1980 were old stock. The Jazzmaster was re-introduced in 1986 as a 1962 reissue model from Fender's Japanese factory.<br /><br />The American Vintage Series version was introduced in 1999. In 2007 Fender announced plans for a 'thin skin' Fender Jazzmaster reissue with vintage nitrocellulose finish. The finish on the AVRI series is also nitro, but a 'thin skin' has a thinner nitro coat than usual (hence the name).<br /><br /><center><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7ME9HXm58a8&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7ME9HXm58a8&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Fender Jazzmaster Guitar 1963<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/cWcwAltnzyk&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/cWcwAltnzyk&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Fender Jazzmaster AVRI Clean Sound<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7xX-2g1seJQ&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7xX-2g1seJQ&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Vintage Fender Jazzmaster 1964 Demo<br /></center>Adminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06629793688491281650noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989486202925550051.post-58204553233467698792009-02-18T16:21:00.000-08:002009-02-18T17:07:34.221-08:001951 Fender Telecaster<img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; width: 400px; height: 286px;" src="http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/tt178/gfender/1951-Fender-Telecaster-Broadcaster-.jpg" alt="" border="0" />The <span style="font-weight: bold;">Fender Telecaster</span>, colloquially known as the Tele, is typically a dual-pickup, solid-body electric guitar made by Fender. Its simple yet effective design and revolutionary sound broke ground and set trends in electric guitar manufacturing and popular music.<br /><br />Introduced for national distribution as the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Fender Broadcaster</span> in the autumn of 1950, it was the first guitar of its kind to be produced on a substantial scale. Its commercial production can be traced as far back as the spring of 1950, when the single- and dual-pickup Esquire models were first sold.<br /><br />The Fender Telecaster has been in continuous production in one form or another since its first incarnation, making it the world's oldest solid-body electric guitar.<br /><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/YFPZK5g8Svs&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YFPZK5g8Svs&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Larry DiMarzio's original 1951 Fender TelecasterAdminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06629793688491281650noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5989486202925550051.post-78201716956143732442009-02-18T15:23:00.000-08:002009-02-18T16:20:23.540-08:001954 Fender Stratocaster<img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/tt178/gfender/1954-Fender-Stratocaster-Sunburst-G.jpg" alt="" border="0" />The <span style="font-weight: bold;">Fender Stratocaster</span>, often referred to as the Strat, is a model of electric guitar designed by Leo Fender, George Fullerton and Freddie Tavares in 1954, and manufactured continuously to the present.<br /><br />It is a double-cutaway guitar, with an extended top horn for balance while standing. The Stratocaster has been used by many leading guitarists, and thus can be heard on many historic recordings.<br /><br />Along with the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Gibson Les Paul</span>, <span style="font-weight: bold;">Gibson SG</span>, and the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Fender Telecaster</span>, it is one of the most common and enduring models of electric guitar in the world. The design of the Stratocaster has transcended the field of music to rank among the classic industrial designs of all time; examples have been exhibited at major museums around the world.<br /><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/MPu6IvgPwEk&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/MPu6IvgPwEk&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />1954 Fender Stratocaster<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/b0fGnm88nm0&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/b0fGnm88nm0&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />1954 Fender Stratocaster & 1954 50th Anniversary MasterbuiltAdminhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06629793688491281650noreply@blogger.com1
