Wow, it's amazing that the condition is still so good. The 62~64 Jags with the clay dot inlays rock. There's just something cool about owning a real Jaguar from when Leo Fender was still in charge of things. I'm surprised the CBS era Jaguars (1965 to 1975) weren't that bad, considering they cut costs and had people that knew nothing about guitars involved with parts and manufacturing.
Seems odd that some people here aren't familiar with the dates and countries.
Leo Fender Jaguars
1962 to 1964 (USA)
(All had matching headstocks, except Sunburst/Blonde models. Pre-CBS Jaguars are easily identified by the clay dot inlays on the fretboard)
CBS Jaguars (USA)
1965 - 1975
Fender Japan Jaguars
1986 - current
Fender USA reissue Jaguars
1999 - current
Some USA-made Jaguars were made and sent to the Japanese market, I am not aware if any of these instruments were actually manufactured before the reintroduction for the USA made Jaguar meant for the American market in 1999. So if you have a USA Jaguar manufactured between 1986 and 1998, you've got quite a conversation piece on your hands.
