1962 Pink Sparkle Jaguar

Post by eggwheat » Thu Mar 15, 2007 4:50 am

Amazing! anyone know anything else about this guitar? more pics maybe?

Here's a quote from the original site about it "1962 Jaquar Pink Sparkle. With matching pink sparkle peghead, the owner claims this guitar is original. Since the peghead decal did look original, I would have to agree. The sparkles are much larger than the standard Fender metallic finishes. A very rare color (too bad it's not a Strat or Tele). Source: guitar show"

That's a sexzy guitar! When I went to the Fender Museum in Corona, CA, they had quite an awesome Jazzmaster. It was blue sparkle sunburst with matching headstock. I need to get the photo I took scanned, you all would like it.

If its the one I am thinking of it was Built by Dennis Galuszka I beleive. If it is that one I almost bought that one, but I was twenty minutes late. 

Guitar is in Germany and he also had a matching Jazzmaster.  One offs for a NAMM Show


Instead I had to have my own built

Collaborative forums...
You are right & Zhiv' sent in the pics.
All in all (vintage and reissue) these are sexy guitars and that's the main issue...  ;)

1962 was a bloom for Sparkle colors on special orders. I know about a red Esquire that made me mad for years... And I wouldn't say a single word about a Champagne Sparkle (or was it Charteux Sparkle ?) Bass VI from the same era (1962 - 1963)...

Yep! Shakira plays a Mustang. Just not very well. She looks super hot with it though. Snaged these off Fender.com

I liked the guitar better before they sparkled it. Like this:
