Open Box Squier Classic Vibe '70s Jaguar Limited Edition Electric Guitar Level 2 Daphne Blue 194744037344

Great quality for a squire. I love the color . High quality for a squier

Feels great, looks great, there are some issues with the hardware feeling a bit cheap. But overall it's a guitar that's hard to put down.

Thanks to Guitar Centers minimum character review I cannot leave a proper review on how horrible this guitar is. They seemed to not post my first review either. This guitar arrived with broken volume and tone pots and terrible grounding. The body is the only thing salvageable!

Tone and Volume pots broken on arrival and just spinning, replaced with full size CTS. Bridge sucks and replaced with a Benzonite. Trem sucks and replaced with Japan fender trem. Tuners suck and replaced with Gotoh locking ovals. Neck playability is a downer. Poor quality guitar!

Great guitar for jamming at home. The short scale & fret board gives it more of a punk sound, but it's so much lighter than my Gibson that I prefer it for long sessions. Plus, I have skinny fingers, which means the short fretboard doesn't bother me, & I can use my ring finger to reach cords I'd usually have to use my pinky finger to reach. The combination makes it's my favorite guitar to play. It's just a fun guitar with great sound for the price.

The quality of this guitar is outstanding, but I have found Squier guitars to be very well made now compared to the inexpensive guitars they made thirty or forty years ago. I've been around guitars for a while... This is now my third Squier guitar and it is excellent. The short scale fretboard is 1/2 inch shorter than my two other offsets - a Squier Paranormal Tele and a Fender American Vintage 60s Jazzmaster. I couldn't check how straight the neck is on the CV 70s Jaguar because the tool I use is for regular scale necks. Everything else was in order including the intonation, which almost never happens without a set up of new guitars, even my expensive ones. The Jaguar's pickups definitely have more punch than the Paranormal Tele's pickups, and are brighter than the pick ups on the Jazzmaster. This Squier Jaguar is more than adequate to get that vintage offset feel. Unless you can and want to spend five times as much on the Fender brand, you are getting a quality guitar that plays just as well for a few hundred dollars. Don't get me wrong about Fender... the American and Japanese Fenders are works of art IMHO that play and sound like masterpieces and are well worth the high sticker price. I really like the large headstocks, and only wish the color of the headstock matched the body. As I mentioned, the intonation was already good and I didn't have to make any adjustments. The fretboard needs oiling, but the tuners are working well at keeping the guitar in tune. With all the added electronic components, this Classic Vibe 70s Jaguar is heavier than each of the other offsets, and like the Jazzmaster, this Jaguar has nice binding around the fretboard. The classic vibe / American vintage guitars are meant to be more old-school. The string action is higher and the sound is very twangy. The more modern sounding guitars have a more refined feel to them, unlike the rawness of these early style guitars of the 60s and 70s. The Jazzmaster and Jaguar controls allow for a variety of sounds but within the range of the soft, darker jazz/rhythm settings to the brighter and crunchier lead settings. This CV 70s Jaguar is brighter overall than my AV 60s Jazzmaster, so I get a good range of sounds to play with. If you like the vintage feel and sound and playability of a more classic feeling rock guitar, you must get this Squier Jaguar before it's gone.
