NGD: 1966 Jaguar

My first vintage Fender. February 1966. One replacement screw (upper strap button) & it feels like the strings were changed about 20 years ago, but all there otherwise.

It's a nice one.

Nice. I love the garish sunbursts of this era.

Lovely!
Has it been played?
It looks so clean in this picture; I think we need a lot more pics...

Congrats! I've got a '66 myself, and it's my favourite guitar. Just has that magic that some guitars have and some don't. Hope you enjoy the hell out of yours!
