I'm new to the wonderful world of guitars, so please forgive me if this is a silly question. :unsure:

It says the Sherwood green jag is a limted edtion. Does anyone know how many Fender usually make per run of their limted edtions?

Anyone got any info on it? Price and availability in the UK? I want it bad.

Cheers
Rob

Marr's twitter post says "200?"

That seems really low, but maybe Fender is not confident with how the color will sell.

I've just asked Johnny (via Twitter), how many will be made. Lets see if he replies :whistle:

i want a green one too.
Despite what we at OSG say, customs colours won't sell well. Freaking Dave's Guitars or the other one has brand new, custom colour Thin skin offsets from 2008 that STILL haven't sold!
Let Fender sell 200 and maybe they'll make more.

Anyone know how many were made for the KO and Olympic White?

The Ocean Turquoise Metallic, Lake Placid Blue, and Sherwood Green trio have always been my favorite finishes...but KO Orange has really grown on me. I wish Johnny matched the headstocks.

If I've understood this correctly, this is a special run for Chigago Music Exchange with less than 200 units.

chicagomusicexchange
@knabisco there are less than 200 of these available. Total! So call and ask to reserve one now at @chicagomusicexchange if you want one. 1-888-686-7872

I think you're reading this wrong. Fender is making 200 of these guitars to be available worldwide. CME is saying if you want one, don't screw around, order one now before they're all gone. CME is a relatively large dealer, but I don't see them ordering 200 of any one model.

You're probably right.

I was extrapolating from this Marr tweet as well ...

The @Johnny_Marr @Fender Jag in Sherwood Green is coming soon! http://www.chicagomusicexchange.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Ltd edition (200?) - be quick!

I was a tad disappointed by the color too- I like the darker sherwood on more recent Fenders. Though, sherwood seems more variable than some other fender finishes so I'm waiting for some more pictures before I get too disappointed. :)

Thanks for reaching out, we're very excited about the new Sherwood JM. We have 5 coming, 2 have already been spoken for. The price is $1,749 and at this time we do not have an ETA, although I am working on getting more info from Fender. Let me know if its something you're interested in getting on order and we'll go from there. Thanks!


Above is what Chicago music stated regarding price and ETA

Isn't $1750 the MAP? Should it not be less than that?

Thankfully, I prefer the KO to the Sherwood, so no danger here for me.
