Could somebody please shed some light on my Jaguar? I don't know if it it's a fake or not. I played it in Spiritualized from '91 to '93. I bought it in Coventry and I remember it came with a weird plastic cover which hugged the contours of the body. That's long since gone. There's no serial number on the neck and the date on the neck says 15 SEP 66B. When I figure out how to upload photos of it I'll post some pics. Thanks

Hi & welcome (or welcome back from floating in space)
The pic posting is a bit kinky...
You need to upload your pics to the web. Then copy the image address (starts with http, ends with .jpg) and use the forum's IMG-command; you paste/write that pic address between the ][ brackets.

The logo doesn't look right
Unless I'm mistaken all Jaguars had a bold font "Fender" and the jaguar looks like it has been done with letraset ....it is too bold and thick and the letter R doesn't have a tail on it like the second image of a real one

...And of course the patent numbers & "Offset Contour Body"are missing...
Plus the sunburst (?) body finish doesn't look right. And the black pickups bother me somehow.

On the other hand, the basics of the guitar seem to fit, and a lot of touring plus a (bad) refin could explain the oddities.

So, on those pics only, and at the moment: undecided.
