Fender introduced the Jaguar® guitar in 1962 as the fourth and last instrument in its original standard guitar lineup. Preceded by the Telecaster® (1951), the Stratocaster® (1954) and the Jazzmaster® (1958), the Jaguar was the only one of Fender’s big-four guitars born in the 1960s, and it was in several ways the most distinctive among them.
