Maybe a KC refinished in red?

One more reason to love her.

My heart skipped a beat when I read the title of the thread, almost thought Fender had announced a Courtney Barnett signature jag... looks like it could end up being a really cool guitar if they did though!

I suspect it's the Kurt Cobain Jaguar refinished. It's got the same knobs, headstock (repainted), lower bout controls and pickups. I'm just assuming tho.

Great to see Courtney getting some love from the overseas OSG’ers. Great Aussie songwriter.

Good shout on the Cobain Jag, she does use one, I think this has been posted here before but here it is again for those that might have missed it.

She's the best, saw her at Glasto in 2015 and have been mildly obsessed since. Used to play a block and bound jag as well which I assume is a MIJ.

Have you listened to Jen Cloher’s album? She’s Courtney’s girlfriend / wife (not sure if they married yet) and Courtney plays on the album.

Wife, yeah. And Courtney is a gem. New album kills.

And just because I have to - Melbourne 2016, I was in the National Gallery with my daughters including my 10yo obsessed with the first CB album, and I looked down at a crew setting up a band for the gallery eating area for one of their concerts, and wow, that's Jen Cloher I think, then oh shit, that's Courtney Barnett. So I dragged my daughter down and told the staff guy that my daughter was a big fan and would like to say hello (she was freaking out and pretty shy) but he said nah, they're setting up, only got a short time to do it, maybe get tickets for the Jen Cloher performance later and you can see them play. Which wasn't an option for us but that's a longer story. So we watched the crew load in for a minute, then someone came out and said hey, I checked with Jen and Courtney, come in, and they met and talked to my daughter for 10-15 minutes, made her feel great, totally natural and lovely. And we thanked them and then Jen stopped us up and said hey, surely you want to take a picture, which like an idiot I hadn't thought of.

And now, eagerly waiting for the new CB album, my daughter says my god, I can't believe I met her, wish I had talked more ...

She seems to be a super smart and funny person. Really like her lyrics and particularly like how relaxed she seems when performing live. Really has a presence about her.

It's a '70s Jaguar from the US. Pretty hard to find a lefty.

Courtney Barnett is a true generational talent and Sometimes I Sit And Think is one of the best albums of the past decade. She'd be great playing a BC Rich 7-string, but that KC Jag is definitely awesome.
