On paper, yes nothing special.
But this Jaguar is what made me want to play guitar all those years ago. Like many here who have that association with Tom Verlaine and the Jazzmaster, Kurt and this Jaguar set a fire in me as a teenager. The beater strats etc. that got demolished didn't do anything for me, but this Jaguar blew me away. To this day it's the coolest guitar I've set eyes on. I've toyed with the idea of buying one of the Mexican reissues just to look at really as humbuckers are definitely not my thing. I adore the look of this thing and the feelings it inspired in me when I was younger.
