What's the difference beetween Fender Jaguar and Jazzmaster?

What's the difference beetween Fender Jaguar and Jazzmaster? Because the body is same, maybe the pickups?|||Hello there,





They do have similar shaped bodies, but the bodies are not interchangable.


The Jaguar uses a 24 inch scale; the Jazzmaster uses a 25 1/2 inch scale (same as the Strat). So the frets will be closer together on the Jaguar. The bridges will be in different locations on the two bodies to accomodate the scale used. Both necks are a C profile and a 7 .25 inch radius fretboard.





The Jaguar has special single coil pickups designed for the Jaguar (they are different from Strat pickups). The Jazzmaster uses P-90 style single coil pickups.





The electronics are slightly different. The Jazzmaster uses a toggle switch pickup selector. The Jaguar uses off/on slide individual switches for the pickups.





And as I recall, the Jazzmaster is slightly heavier, but I do not have the weights for either of them.





Later,|||there could be lots of things that contribute to the sound of the guitar. go in the shop and play them both you may not know what causes the difference but you will know what sounds better for you
