Fender | Kurt Cobain Jag-Stang
The Long-Awaited Hybrid is Here
A tragic figure turned immortal rock icon, Kurt Cobain is remembered for many things, not least for his unique hybrid guitar, the Jag-Stang. Fender’s new Cobain Jag-Stang is faithful to Kurt’s original and built to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Nirvana’s high watermark, Nevermind, a landmark album that changed music forever.

A perfect combination of features from the Fender Jaguar and Fender Mustang, two models to which he is forever linked, the Cobain Jag-Stang mirrors Kurt’s favorite features with an alder Jaguar body, 24” short-scale neck, 7.25”-radius rosewood fingerboard, and a slim “C”-shape maple neck.
The electronics, too, are spot-on. The Mustang slider’s four settings offer the same in- and out-of-phase tones, and the mixed vintage-style single-coil/humbucker pickup set is potent, punchy, and perfect for power chords.
No more Googling around and waiting for the perfect custom to come up. The real Fender Cobain Jag-Stang is finally here, and it can be yours when you preorder today from the Chicago Music Exchange!

Martin built the first ever X-braced Martin models for one of the most renowned soloists of the era, Madame Delores N. de Goñi. And although it’s not as often that we see de Goñi model come through Chicago Music Exchange's doors, we sometimes see a fair number of the earliest artist editions and signature models ever commercially produced—including the Gibson Nick Lucas and Roy Smeck models.
