I was a Strat guy for decades, picked up a used Jazzmaster and became a Jazzmasters guy. Found a Jaguar I liked and ended up selling all my Fenders and having only the Jaguars. Just love the way they sound and play. Yours is beautiful Chris just beautiful…\m/ \m/
Had a 58 and loved my 63 jag offered a flametop to the guy who had no way had a standel twin and they sounded so cool i couldnt play my l.p. it killed my flame my flame was one of 50 made first first run of reissue l.p.s i think around 80 -82 joey malone from badfinger wanted it really bad i ended up keeping it and the jag i called mine the guy reneged on after a couple weeks it was totally clean no effects standel twin and it wasted my lp.and 100wt. 1-12 combo.marshall.i couldnt believe it ! Never found another ( of course ) that sounded so good it was totally killer thickneck for a jag got progressively thicker going down to the 12th.monster of a guitar amp was a lot to do with it 2 perfect combination guy couldnt let it go in the end cause his deceased father had giged them in a country band for a decade or more .i was hurt to say the least i never hesitated for 1 second to swap and my rig was wirth 2x.that standel was killer 2 i never even heard of one.2 12 twinreverb wow!!!!! Buetiful bending sounding instrunent no amp sounded as good with it .too sweet. Thought i had the ultimate set up ouch he took it back his dad died he had to keep it . It still bites as the guy had it sold it later 1500 for setup standel twin 12 63 fkawless playing sounding jag typical burst .oww !!
I picked up an early 2000s Jagstang about 2 months ago and I adore it. I'm halfway to being a Jaguar guy.
I’m no virtuoso but one thing I love to explore on guitar to add interest are interesting inversions, extended chords, shapes, etc. The short scale on the Jag often makes this stuff way more comfy. Plus I’m usually playing clean arpeggios for that stuff-which sound just great on the Jag due to the unique way the strings are set up with the resonance behind the bridge. And, while it needs a couple of judicious mods, the Jag trem system is perhaps my favourite of any guitar.
What do you all think of the necks. I've gone Wizard in my old age and always thought the Jaz/Jag/Stang necks were chunky and not fun. Are they still like that or what's the story? I live in the rural boonies now so I have no access to toy stores like in my youth so I get my info from you all. Thanks!
@@davidkenneth3983 what the hell are you rambling about?
Another killer CB video with trademark virtuoso playing and articulate commentary. BRAVO Chris and thank you!
As an owner of a Jaguar and a Jazzmaster I must thank you for these wonderful videos. Amazing playing as always but today’s outro was full of energy and good vibes, amazing! Cheers
This guy and Matthew Scott do not have the ability to play anything below the level of unbelievable 😂🙌
One of the very best guitarists and channels on TH-cam....
Thanks Chris wonderful playing as always.
A terrific demo of the rhythm circuit! So many people just ignore it or are bewildered by it, but it produces such a sweet warm but still defined tone. I truly don't know why it's not more popular.
I have a 2021 Jaguar Vintera. I love it. The most versatile guitar I own. To think it was out of style for decades surprises me. But what’s old is new again, etc.
The Jazzmaster and Jaguar both suffered from people not knowing how to set them up right. So they’d be stuck with buzzes, bridge rattle, and slipping strings. But the few that figured out what Leo had in mind found they are magical when set up properly.
A Jaguar has been on my radar for a while. I have neck and shoulder issues and the shorter scale length is appealing to me. Great video!
but beware! They're heavy...
This entire channel is extremely organized, informative and well executed! You’re an inspiring teacher. Keep it up please!
Chris was amazing at essays in school in case anyway can't tell!
Whoa, what a riff!!!!!!! That rocks
Yoooo he did it! I was commenting last episode how much I'd love a Jag episode. One of my fav guitars of all time. Thanks Chris, keep on keepin on dude.
My ‘64 Jaguar has been with me for a little over 20 years. It helped me get into and through music school, and is still my go-to for almost everything I do. Quite a good pal to have.
Man, that outro jam was out of this world !!!
Yay!!! Another great installment of Friday Fretworks! Always great watching and listening to your tremendous playing.
Great playing at the intro as always
That jam at the end... oh my.
Dude I freaking loved that stuff you playing in the first bit. So much feel my dude I loved it
Intro jam! 🤯🤯
That 'outro' was superb...
Welcome back Chris! Back with a bang 💥
Beautiful instrument. I’m always happy to hear what jam you have thought up and I’m never disappointed. Not a beginner guitar.
Another excellent episode, thank you Chris. And just lovely playing, man.
Wow! That outro solo blew me away!
Ooooof. What an intro. Big Jaguar fan so appreciate the video!
Was notttt ready for the There Was A Time solo at the end there! Fantastic as always
Thank you Chris!
Again a beautiful solo at the end. All these solo's could add up to an album?
“Should” ;)
Need to
The last solo is from G‘n‘R „There was a time“
An album of solos? 😷
It’s from THERE WAS A TIME by GNR
Darren Redick ,planet rock says your one of the best guitarists of our generation, I agree 🏴👍
really? have not heard any songs by him played anywhere..
Nice chops Mr Buck …
Fascinating, thanks Chris.
Heh, amazing playing. I was smiling to myself about all the people saying you can’t bend on a 7.25” board citing notes choking out... Chris seems to do just fine ;)
Goes to show ya , don't believe everything you hear. Or see for that matter.
You really have a killer style soloing. Really distinctive.
Damn it, I've been looking for a Jaguar (with the mute) for some time now, and now the prices will skyrocket after Chris' intro.
They have always been expensive but currently there is a Player Jaguar and you can convert it to Johnny Marr style SS very easily. For a true rhythm circuit you’d need to d a bit of routing on the top horn.
That skyrocket launched a long time ago.
First musical piece is simply phenomenal. Brilliant and potent.
It’s interesting how unique your voice sounds on the instrument each time you play, your solos all have unifying skill, but they all have their own character and flair.
In their 60 years on this planet , I bet none of those jaguars have ever been played so well. Not sure how you do it chris ! Awesome as always
⚓️ Thanks Chris 😎
Your guitar playing is amazing. Beautiful sense of harmony and melody. Especially loved the clean tune you played demonstrating the pickups in the middle of the video. Thx so much
You demonstrated the capabilities of this guitar so well.
Holy shit that lick at 9:20!! Beautiful!! Great video as always. 👍
Whoa dude!!!! That last solo tone was Brilliant!!! That was just eye opening! Great job and yeah.bottle that one and make it a whole song. Thanks for the history. Never cared for the necks I encountered on these models but the history lesson was worth the price of admission. Thank You again and Best Regards and Best Wishes!
crazy tasty playing, Chris.
cool info, too
The intro piece would be a hit.
Splendid!
It's so crazy how Fender's aesthetic and production carries over into all of their bigger four or five models, but they're all so very different from each other. You really do get very different sounds out of a Telecaster, Stratocaster, Jazzmaster, and Jaguar - as well as some very similar sounds and playability. Guess that's why I got one of each lol or at least that's what I tell people.
Hi from Reddit (r/offset)
@@chrisgreene7075 🤙 how's it going
@@RobertNolan Good bro hbu
@@chrisgreene7075 no complaints!
Yep me too lol. Need all those very subtle variations, that's what I tell my wife anyway 😂
I've watched this about 50 times so far...for the solo at the end. I can't get enough and I can't stop.
I got a book about guitars for my 16th birthday in 2002. I can remember turning the page to the Jazzmaster and Jaguar and just being stunned at how beautiful they were. I'd genuinely never seen one before. I'd grown up listening to Britpop, which was massively Gibson dominated bar the odd exception. Fast forward to 23 year old me with a job and finally some money in my bank account. I walked into a local music shop to buy myself a MIJ Jaguar in surf green, only to have the complete embarrassment of not knowing how to work the controls. I couldn't even get a sound out of it and handed it back to one of the staff completely red faced. I walked out with a Strat instead. I later picked up a Squier Jagmaster for dirt cheap and love it. It's essentially a simplified Jaguar with humbuckers. It has the same body and scale-length as a Jaguar but with the HH pickups and a strat-style trem, and only seems to share the pickguard with a Jazzmaster, to my eyes (it lacks the chrome). I might give a real one a try one day as I find the offset contoured body and short scale super comfortable to play.
The last clip - of you playing the matching colour headstock Jaguar, will no doubt have guitarists the world over, wondering why they dismissed this Fender model.
I don’t think anyone has ever played like that on a Jag’ - and your incredible style and technique will no doubt do wonders for EBay and Reverb searches for Jaguars!
Great sound !
great video and incredibly tasteful playing.
You're an amazing guitarist, Chris. You deserve all the good coming to you. I hope it translates to stacks of money for you.
Ending with yet another face melter . Amazing!!
That intro tone ❤️
Awesome as always Chris.
I adore how comfortable and versatile these guitars are. They’re just so much FUN to play!
They are cool guitars, good overview.
One thing though, pretty much every other source I have ever seen mentions the Mustang as the last guitar Leo worked on for Fender, coming out not long before the take over, with the Mustang Bass being the last thing he worked on overall.
However the Mustang was not intended as the flagship model.
Yes - you’re right.
Leo was working on other guitar designs AFTER the Jazzmaster and Jaguar.
I’ve filmed with [the late] Don Randall and Fender historian Richard R Smith a few times, and they both say Leo’s research and design was always ongoing.
Soon as one design was sorted - he was onto the next.
The Mustang was Leo’s redesigned DuoSonic - but incorporating the offset style body of the Jazzmaster and Jaguar. It came out in 1964 … just as Leo was selling off Fender for his personal health reasons.
Finally! Thank you!
Kinell, Chris. That sounds sweet as a nut but so does anything in your hands mate.
Very informative. Also very tasteful playing
Intro killer tone and playing pretty much nailed Mark Kendall Great White’s ‘Rock Me’ noodling.
Informative! Nice playing too, especially the fingerstyle stuff. Thanks for playing clean and with fingers for the demo. I really think that's the best way to hear the nuances of different guitars. Definitely impressed with the various sounds you got out of that Jaguar, and I'm now slightly less confused as to what all the switches do. Probably at the top of my wish list.
Killer intro riff and solo!!! Thank you! It was also very "original" without some traits you do every time and are reminiscent of Derek Trucks
I've been playing mine from brand new in 72. As a special order from Fender it was actually a pain when brand new. I got the record company to buy the most expensive guitar they made then but the bridge was nasty so it got ripped out. Lots of other issues too including wiring. I got it fixed, modded and played the hell out of it all over the world and although battered to hell its now rocking into the next generation. At least they're cool nowadays. You can't really compare a Jag to a Strat really...like apples and oranges. Both make you play differently.
Love, Love, Love the all-mighty Jag !!!
Arguably theee most underrated guitar out there today !
You could play arenas…incredible as usual
Nice work. I've loved offsets since the early '60s when i was a little with Surf and garage bands in my neighbor hood.
First electric was a Teisco/Audition jag-alike i bought from a friend for $12.00 in '73 when i was 15. Had gold foil pick ups.
Wife surprised me with a Sq Jagmaster in '08 for Christmas, SB, TS guard, creme DD hb pickups. I loved the look when i first saw it in a shops window about a year before but didn't play it. The shop was about a half hour drive away so i didn't see it for about a year.
When i did, it was in sad shape,, off the main floor, covered in dust, dead strings, neglected. I felt sorry for it.
Told my Wife about it and she bought it for me ! They cleaned it and set it up.
Needless to say I love them both dearly.
ha, this guitar i learned later was 'inspired' by something Bush' Gavin Rosdale used.
My daughter was a fan. Me, not so much ;)
Beautiful opening solo sound Chris 😁👍
You are great guitar player
A great Video Chris. I have an old one I received in the 60's.
Thanks, the conclusive track is really wonderful!
I bought a second hand Squier Tobacco Sunburst Jag off Marketplace for $300 last year. It was a bit of a dog, until I did some research into the correct set-up, especially regarding the bridge break angle which Leo Fender had in mind. I put in the time and effort and sorted it out. Now it is one of the most rewarding axes in my quiver. Plays as well as guitars ten times it's value. And the versatility of voicings from the circuit switching is incredible. Not to mention one of the stabilist tremolo systems around. Thanks CB. And all the best to anyone reading this too! 😊
It's all in the hands.
Your guitars all sound like Chris Buck. Not Bad.
it's true, EVH had a cat and when he tickled it under its chin it purred Eruption.
You blow me away man.
Some real Richie Kotzen vibe going on here. Fantastic.
Watching this while waiting for vintera HH jag to come tomorrow
I think Johnny Marr has a signature one. Though the smiths songs were made with a tele. Easy to get obsessed with Smiths songs. That 2 note chord Riff in girl afraid!!! My heart just falls playing that. Amazing what you can do with 2 note chords!
Johnny heavily modified his with his guitar tech, and Fender actually said, “can we have a look at what you did?” They liked it enough to offer him the signature model! He plays those now on tours (saves his original from getting beaten up), but he sanded off his signature on the headstock because he felt it too weird to be playing something with his name on it.
Cool Brass Headnut on the Jag... My much older Brother made a bunch of those from scratch when he worked with Glenn Quan. I love the way some old Fiesta Red Fenders fade to a bit more Coral or Salmon, sorta Magenta with a tiny bit of Yellow in it.
Can't play them but I'm obsessed with guitars and specifically the fender Jag, I've spent too long watching Johnny Marr play his. Loved this week's video.
It's all great, but let's face it, Mr. Buck, you could make a 2X4, two nails, and a piece of bailing wire sound incredible.
Love those introductory riffs very protopunk sound!
Intro killer tone and playing pretty much nailed Mark Kendall Great White’s ‘Rock Me’ noodling. 👍👍👍
I come back and watch this video every couple of weeks for those tones.
Most soulful guitar playing!
I own a 64 Jag I bought in Tacoma WA that was owned by a previous Grunge Rock performer who is no longer with us. These Jags truly sound amazing. Wonderful sound.
This vid had some of your finest playing! Once again...when are you going to do a solo album?!?
Don't forget John Frusciante :) His green Jaguar can be heard in various places on BSSM. The intro of Under the Bridge sounds indisputably like a Jaguar to me, and after listening closely to the studio stems I actually think the entire song might be his Jaguar rather than a strat. It has the bright snappy twang, punchy transients, and short sustain of a Jaguar throughout.
Dangit Chris. I thought I didn't need any more guitars. Dynamite video as usual, man.
Oh man Chris Buck playing a JAG! In my mind this is the Fender model that really suits your style - you seem to fill that hole with the P90 Revstar and you do that absolutely beautifully - but the bite and snarl that the Jag brings to the table along with your incredibly dynamic and melodic playing seems to me a match made in guitar heaven!
Absolutely love my vintera jag in Ocean turquoise.
W0W!
Jaguars are so damn fun to play and man I love all that chrome. If I wasn't so damn broke I'd have bought one of the 60th anniversary red ones before they sold out. Will just have to make do with my Fender Japan 64 reissue. When I got it I couldn't put it down for days. Just got a Fender Japan Jazzmaster HH with Cunifes too.
I love it when people touch the volume poti while playing without moving it at all :D Haha jokes aside, awesome playing and I'm a Jag lover myself. Good content!!
I have a squire jag classic series with 65 fender pickups in it and I love it. For the feel and sound and tone options built into it.
Fabulous rundown of this fine guitar
After only playing Tele's and Strats for a long time, I decided to try a Haze Jazzmaster and after upgrading nearly everything on it, became my favorite. Then the AMPro ii Jazzmasters came out and I ordered one last December and still have not received it. Last week, I was told it has been delayed until this coming December, so a few days ago, order a used Dark Night on Reverb and it will be here this Tuesday. Can't wait to get my hands on it! Next, I want try to find a Jag. Thanks for the great Demo!
One thing that is hard to argue: They look cool as hell. When I saw Kurt Cobain with his I had no idea what it was, but I liked it! Recently bought a J craft Jaguar bass as my very first bass guitar. Red with the matching headstock. Just looking at it makes me want to play. Inspired playing as usual Chris. Cheers!
The way you attack the guitar reminds me of how MJ used to attack the basketball hoop. Intensity, intimidation and aggression!
That ''There Was A Time'' jam at the end was pretty sweet. That Buckethead solo was a highlight in the album
