Fender’s Kurt Cobain Signature Guitars
Kurt Cobain is best know in the later part of Nirvana for using his 1965 Fender Jaguar, and his many Fender Mustangs. Fender is now releasing both these in a Kurt Cobain Signature Series.
I have to say I have always loved the look of that 65′ Fender Jaguar.
The Mustang is also a nice looking guitar, and currently a much cheaper option that the Jaguar.
