For Sale: 2012 Fender MIJ Japan FSR Jaguar JG/HO Double Bound Hollow-Body Thinline 3-Tone Sunburst w/ Case

Up for sale is a very rare 2012 Fender Made in Japan FSR Jaguar JG/HO Double Bound Hollow-Body Thinline in 3-Tone Sunburst, complete with a non-original hard-shell case.

Released as part of the Jaguar’s 50th Anniversary celebration, this highly sought-after Factory Special Run model was limited to only 250 pieces in 3-Tone Sunburst. Fender Japan took the traditional Jaguar platform and gave it a unique semi-hollow double-bound body with an F-hole, creating one of the coolest and most distinctive offset variants they ever produced.

With its short 24" scale, vintage-style Jaguar electronics, bound rosewood fingerboard, and semi-hollow construction, this model blends classic Jaguar feel and tone with extra resonance and visual flair.

Electronics & Features

One of the coolest aspects of this model is the semi-hollow double-bound body design. It gives the guitar a noticeably more resonant and lively feel while still preserving the unmistakable Jaguar attack and character.

The traditional Jaguar electronics setup includes both the Lead and Rhythm circuits, giving players access to a wide range of tones from bright, cutting surf-style sounds to warmer, darker rhythm textures.

Being limited to only 250 examples in this finish also makes these especially desirable among Fender Japan collectors and offset enthusiasts.

Tone & Feel

This guitar has the snappy, articulate response Jaguar players love, with the added openness and resonance that comes from the semi-hollow construction.

The short scale and slender C neck make it extremely comfortable and easy to play, while the vintage-style pickups deliver clear highs, punchy mids, and classic Jaguar sparkle.

At 8 lbs even, it feels solid and balanced without becoming heavy.
