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!

The CME Collection | Acoustics
It may not be the first thing you see when you walk into Chicago Music Exchange but, tucked in the back corner of our store—past the counter, the wall of Les Pauls, and the Gibson thinlines on the left—you’ll find a pair of French doors that open up to our Acoustic Room. Walk in and you’ll find yourself a humidity-/temperature-controlled room, which is essentially a walk-in humidor full of all the six-string (at times, 12-string) acoustic instruments we have, from the most sought-after brands our customers love and are always looking for—all of which can be perused at a glance with one swivel of the head.
