I have this Fender jag pickup, could you please help with identification? Formvar or PE, hand or machine wound, year estimate? It is staggered pole pu. There is a pencil code , is not much visible (5 -19 - 63 or 65 CT or maybe OCT), thanks mates! Works great, all strings well ballanced (no matter that it is staggered), brighter than 62 flat poles....6,2kOHMs

Coincidentally the only Jaguar(s) I have are a 1963 and 1964. The only criterion I am familiar with to distinguish early 60s Jaguar pickups is non-staggered for 62, 63, and staggered thereafter.

This was a useful post - I'm sure there are others as well.

ok, how about the code, have you seen this kind of code and pencil that on 63?

Would be interesting to see some examples of pencil codes of 63, 64 ( aside from standard yellow ink stamps) and 65, some owners of 63 to 65 jags here?

Hi,

I removed the pickups from my Jag yesterday and now I have two questions:
1. Looks like the metal bracket holds the pickup rather strong and the pencil codes would be under it. How one should take it off carefully?
2. When i put everything back the 3rd string started to buzz, but I don't have any idea why... What could be the reason?
