Fender Kurt Cobain Signature Jaguar model, made in Mexico (2011).
Quite a rarity now, this is the original (first production year) iteration of this model - firstly rare because it's the factory roadworn version and even rarer so for also being a factory lefty. As such, it's near about identical to Kurt's original. weathered 60s Jaguar. Further, being a 2011 model it has a real, dark rosewood fingerboard (Fender went on to use Pau Ferro on later models).
No details were spared in production, with Fender even going to the trouble of drilling holes for Klusons - and then installing Japanese Gotoh tuners, leaving the original holes exposed (as was the case with Kurt's). Fender also opted to recreate the guitar's modified 3-knob control panel and modified pickup switch, paired with factory Dimarzio humbuckers.
Atop of this, these models were factory worn to a pattern identical to Kurt's guitar, resulting in a very sympathetic reproduction of the iconic grunge guitar.
