"" 'I was able to track down what they needed,' says Fender Director of Artist Relations Mark Wittenberg, 'so they could keep his guitars up and running. Then we were contacted and told that Kurt had an idea for a guitar -- something that he had in his mind's eye but wasn't really seeing out there in the real world. His favorite guitar was a Mustang, but there were things about the lines of the Jaguar that he really liked too. Wittenberg and Fender master builder Larry L. Brooks journeyed to Cobain and Love's Hollywood apartment to discuss the guitar. The couple were just in the process of moving out. Like Ferrington, the Fender guys were impressed with Cobain's courteous manner. 'He was very soft-spoken and very gentle.' Brooks recalls. 'As it turned out, we'd gotten him out of bed. He'd been out or played the night before, so he was still a little tired. But as we started talking about the guitar, the adrenaline started flowing. He was very easy to work with. He knew what he wanted, but at the same time he was able to say, "You're the builder, so you know the best way to accomplish what I'm after.He was very open-minded that way. Fender cut a body and sent it to Kurt who sent it back with some slight suggestions. He then sent out one of his favorite necks for them to copy. The resulting instrument has an alder body, plus a 24-inch scale maple neck with a rosewood fretboard and vintage-style fretwire. At Cobain's request, Brooks used stock Mustang hardware from Japan, where the guitars are still produced (according to Nirvana guitar tech Earnie Bailey, the bridge was later changed to a Tune-O-Matic). The neck pickup is a single-coil Texas Special, which was originally designed as a bridge pickup for Fender's Stevie Ray Vaughan model. The bridge pickup is a Dimarzio H-3 Humbucker. 'The Texas Special is a little hotter than most single coils,' Brooks explains. 'With a humbucker at the bridge, the Texas Special in the neck position really helped to balance things out so that there wasn't such a drastic drop in volume and output going from one pickup to the other.' 'Kurt requested two guitars' says Mark Wittenberg, 'one in Solid Blue and one in Fiesta Red.' The blue instrument was delivered to Cobain, who used it on Nirvana's 1993 tour. 'We were just finishing the Fiesta Red one,' Wittenberg continues. 'In fact, we were literally ready to deliver it when we received word of his death.' The red guitar has been earmarked for the Fender museum which is being planned. The "Jag-stang" was seen starting in mid-to-late 1993 although Kurt rarely played it. A reviewer for Guitar Shop saw a "cross between the Jaguar and Mustang, the Jag-stang features a sonic blue Jag body with white pickguard and Mustang bridge". As most of you know, the Jag-stang has hit the stores some time ago. Like Chris points out on his FAQ, the Jag-stang isn't exactly as Kurt intended it to be. Kurt didn't even like the Jagstang that much when he received it. He forgot to have Fender do the contours for the arm and the stomach. It was as thick as a Telecaster and rather misbalanced. He wouldn't even play it for the (first?) month he had it. It was also tough to set up. Earnie immediately changed the pickups, routing it out (wasn't the Dimarzio H-3 a full-sized humbucker?- Brian) and putting a Duncan JB in the bridge. As previously stated, he installed a Tune-O-Matic bridge on it. Earnie had also talked with Kurt about re-shaping the body for a more traditional Fender look. Earnie told Mark Wittenberg about these changes (also, the fitted bridge). Mark was interested in the changes, but he passed away, too. So Fender released that Jag-Stang in the way Kurt had received it. Kurt eventually became comfortable enough to use his Jag-Stang on rare occaions for a whole show"."
