Here it is... The beast, I named him Jackal. Without a doubt this is my favorite fender jaguar I've ever played. It completely nails Nirvana Cobain style tones.
Its super frustrating - I recently had a cover song be flagged as the original so I got a take down notice, and my appeals were rejected. Love your videos Aaron, I'm a huge fan of Nirvana and yourself!
@@AaronRash Thanks man! We love your content your channel is super underrated and your videos are super high quality! Stay awesome man! Can't wait to see more!
I just wish your intros went on forever... some really potent visuals & cinematography... you really capture the essence of playing guitar, (especially sad nirvana tones). Yet you also retain homage to the melancholic, intriguing and, explosive career of Kurt Cobain and, his legacy. Keep it up!!
@@gavinwinram7811 it's a higher pitched rendition of 'heart shaped' box I believe... or at least to my ears. You can hear the classic sound at 0:13 He really needs to make a spotify and publish these different takes on famous songs !
I really love the overdrive sound in the intro, what kind of pedal were you using, or was it just the amp?..great build..now I’m obsessed with recreating your guitar tone using whatever I have on hand
Damn, bro... That's spot-on. Your playing is spot-on too. And don't get me wrong, I'm 45 yo and Nirvana literally changed my life. His songs tug at my heart and my soul like no other. But with your obvious passion, technical knowledge, and playing ability, I really hope you're doing your own thing too. I have a feeling you could bring forth some great art/music into the world.
Awesome history. I had just turned 16 when Kurdt died. I have a cheap Mustang that I installed Seymour Duncans into. I also have a nice American Jaguar. But they don't sound like the HI Flier Phase 3. I finally found a nice used one 2 years ago. Sunburst etc. It is the real sound of Nirvana in my humble opinion.
wow.. the initial part of the video completely detached me from reality.. a beautiful nostalgic sound suspended in time. Beautiful sound and video, congratulations.
I love the comparison for the single coil and the super distortion! I always felt that the stock bridge pickup on jaguars sound unusually great for heavier music. Just something about it, especially with heavy distortion or fuzz. It takes it really well, almost as good as a humbucker would in the same spot.
Sorry to hear about the copyright your my favourite RUclipsr I always am so excited to see new videos I don't know how meny time I have watched your vids love the jag btw I've always wanted one also can't wait to see those interviews!! Keep up the good work!!!
I absolutely dug this video… this is honestly one of my favorites you’ve created yet. I used to work at a music store and we had a Kurt Cobain jaguar. If I’m being completely honest, it really was a total piece of shit. I started attempting to re-create tone around the same time you uploaded your first video, and of course it was necessary that I find myself a jag. I ended up buying a 1996 vista series jagmaster, let’s just say it does Nirvana better than the majority of jags I’ve heard out there. You may want to check it out at some point they’re fairly affordable and I think it could make for a very interesting video. They come with pair of stock jbs which sound similar to the sups but not 100% its oddly closer to kurts Skystangs.
I hear the earlier KC signature ones were better. It's really a shame they discontinued the road worn ones too. That jag master sounds awesome, I'll check that out sometime!
@@AaronRash yes, that is absolutely true. The newer ones just lost something special. Also great hearing back from brother. I think you’ll get a kick out of the jagmaster… keep up these excellent videos you are absolutely my favorite youtuber and I’ve said it before and will continue to stand by that statement!!!!
@@alexkeenan5768 I always thought the Jagmasters were some of the best budget guitars for playing Nirvana, even the chinese ones I've played have all been nice
The road worn version of the Cobain Jag is much better. It was only made for 1 or 2 years before they went full NOS only. No gloss, correct colours and a lot lighter
MJT Bodys are insane. Got one through the german version of craigslist and built a Tele with it. Vintage looking with a modern shaped neck and little higher Output. Puts every Fender Tele i ever played to shame. 😅
That is a beautiful sounding jag, mine does not ring that much on the low E string for some reason, that sound is so crucial to that Nirvana feel. I'll definetly keep an eye on lighter jag bodies, that guitar just sound so spot on, it's unbelivable.
I think it is possible that the position of the pickup so much closer to the bridge may have played a big part in the tone difference. Very interesting video! :)
"this is totally the all apologies guitar" (3 months later when you get the ferrington copy "this is totally the all apolgies guitar" ) they all sound good though
Wow, this was so cool and I'm so impressed at how it sounds compared to the signature model. Did you use the wiring harness from your '71 or make a new one? Makes me excited to move forward with a couple builds I have waiting with MJT bodies. I'll try to do a Jag next....
I have a MJT Jazzmaster, there's something with these ultra light bodies that really resonates. They all just sound amazing. Definitely the better pick when it comes to making your own builds compared to Warmoth for example.
holy shit, such a beautiful guitar 🥺 that’s my dream tone and definitely the most accurate cobain tone i’ve ever heard. Which company made the body for you?
Your video are literally the best you can find on YT. You're able to share your passion and giving us some good advice to develop Nirvana tone. Thank you for what you're doing. My first problem is that i haven't money to buy a simple mustang or jaguar so you can image for a vintage one 🤣 but i'm still trying 🤣
woah cool tones, i was suprised to hear the pickups were the same in the end, thought for sure your kurt jag just had ceramic pickups was the tone differnce but wow, more proof the guitar does matter, how its constructed and of what, not just electronics.
Would you consider making a video about the measurements of the pick-up distance and other measurements on your jag? If it’s to much hassle I understand.
First of all wanted to say that this is one of the most entertaining guitar channels I've found on RUclips. And that's coming from someone who's a huge Nirvana fan but doesn't personally chase Kurt's tone. One question I have on this build! Any tips for aging the tortoise pickguard? I have a Jazzmasater with a tort guard and I'd love to improve the look. Did yours start out a more dull red? Thanks!
Very interesting, I myself have a 2013 kc jag (bought new) and I had to do some changes to it. The neck angle wasn’t right, plus the contact area from the neck with the body wasn’t great, so vibrations dint transfer well between neck and body. The nut had to be replaced by a bone nut, the bridge was replaced for a black abr1 from gotoh with raw brass saddles, plus I replaced the bridge pickup with a dimarzio 59 (I believe that’s the name). After all that it sounds pretty good. Plus mine is the road worn, so the lacquer is thin and nitro, I believe. Your jaguar looks and sounds amazing! :)
i tottally agree with your opinion about the signature " kurt jag ", sounds weird. I finally found a Fender 60's road worn jaguar with the dimarzios, sounds very close to the nirvana tones. Someday i post a video about it! You will like it!
There is a almost infinite amount of variables that could cause that sound but my main theory is the finish or the wood of the neck/body/fretboard causes it
Bro, that's cos, 1-cheaper pickups and 2-long scale neck. Thats the reason your Kurt Cobainsig jag sounds diff. Sound of the guitar is PICK UPS plus Action, long scale v short scale, if you put those PAF pickups on a Kurt jag it'd the real deal. Its al about pickups, basically no matter what wood you've got, or glass or whatever , a Les Paul and an SG would sound identical. Any squier would sound like a vintage fender with Alnico 5 and 2 pickups.
Literally the same pickups and scale length dude, Mustang and Jaguar necks are identical and he used the same Super Distortion he had in the other Jag. Have you actually tested your pickup theory?
Interesting to see Kurts set up. It has the deep twangy heavy sound which is perfect for his style. Cool channel I need to study more vids. Check my patented vertical scallop fretboard. Kurt actually bent the high E or low E off the fretboard on some of his feedback type solos to get different scratchy or buzzy tones. Hendrix carved fret notches on select frets as told by Seymour Duncan to alter pitch. I just evolved it to any string and deeper grooves. The fretcorner can pluck the string for infinite vibrato sustain and extra notes of pulloffs to evolve power chord rhythms. My uncle Gary Lucas composed Jeff Buckley Grace which is iconic. in fact Jeff does FretCorner vibrato on hallelujah Chicago live solo on high e. Another cool fact is my uncle played guitar in Cptn. Beefheart which the Melvins are big fans of and they introduced Kurt to them as well as Zappa That inspired Nirvana and there sound / attitude in subtle ways. There’s a lot of unknown Nirvana history out there to learn and share.
That guitar sounds great. What do you think about an aluminum neck on a guitar like that? Thinking about building something that hopefully has your guitars tone.
Hi Aaron, I would love it if you haven't interviewed Weston yet, if you could ask him about the recording sessions he did with Eric's Trip (three main albums) - ie what instruments/amps etc were utilized, how it went about, etc... Thanks!
Do you play in standard or half step down in this video? Because your heart shaped box and you’re all apologies, sound really good and I can’t figure out whether most of the stuff is played in half step down or standard. Because I just started playing electric guitar again and I am following you because I’m doing almost the same thing but not as intense going for a small clone and DS 1 next.
that riff in the first 40 seconds is ALWAYS stuck in my head, I absolutely love that tone is that just straight up the RG-120 and jag? or are you running pedals at all very cool regardless :)
Very nice video, thank you for taking the long way home , & going the extra mile, to record the clips of the super dostortion & the stock setup. I thought that was really cool . People always throw off on his riffs, or his style an methods of playing guitar .. Which, are actually not complicated riffs, or to simple, rather unique , especially as time has passed.... I at 33, hear less of the "Cobain was not a talented guitar player..." Which , is nice.. all the gear / signature models are always lots of fun.. (Congratulations, you have won! It's a year subscription of bad puns... )
Aaron, could you do a favor to all hardcore Nirvana fans and ask Albini about the Big Muff and the third amp used on IU? If it was an Airline tube amp?
How you doing Aaron? Sweet sweet Jaguar 👌🏼 Man that pickguard tip is killer, why have I never thought of that 🤦🏻♂️ It actually looks awesome 👏🏼 Can I just say aswell Aaron, your playing is bang on now 👌🏼👍🏼
It feels like watching montage of heck or some fucking amazing movie about Kurt, this is my dream lifestyle and vibe, fuck yes keep up the good work man, I love it
its the pots dude, the kurt jag he used had 500k pots i think and the one you have was close to his spec wise, ive owned one too.. the best way to fix the issue is to get the relic version, sell your current one cause you got a shit build... the company did that not you.. the relic ones are different again more exposed wood means more clearer and more of an open tone.. i extra relic my stuff to bring this out
My vintera stang has plastic tuning pegs too. So stylish. Jaguars being so very heavy was a surprise to me when I actually got one. I was able to score a pretty light MIJ one with block inlays but its still heavier than my others.
Hey man, I've got a question. If one speaker blows in a 2x12 combo does the other speaker stop making sound too? So I got my ac30 repaired because it just stopped making sound, there was no pop or anything it just stopped. It still turned on and everything. I had replaced one of the stock greenbacks with an alnico blue btw. After picking the amp up from getting repaired they said I blew the new alnico and they replaced it with another greenback. They didn't give me back the blown speaker I spent over $400 on and didn't help with the questions I had so i'm kind of suspicious. I don't know much about amps and speaker and I wasn't able to find any info online so i thought id try to ask you! Really appreciate any ideas you may have. Thanks anyways & the videos are always great keep it up!
It would have been nice to see if the Fender Signature could have improved something by sanding the finish and painting it with something thinner, doing something about the pickups and swapping the nut. I understand sometimes it isn't even worth it considering the original price that its paid. Still, I am curious. Love the one you modded, pure grunge! I have always wanted to have a nice "Cobained" Jaguar in white or sonic blue. I The player classic HH model is nice, looks and sounds amazing. Some pleople have modded their Jaguar or Mustangs installing some SD P Rails, so you get three pickup sounds (more even if you use out of phase etc sounds), its amazing XD Love your videos man, keep rockin.
The tone is almost similar! It needs a bit more mids! It’s close! I hear it but it sounds like yours needs a bit more mids. The bass feel of it is there. And high ends are spot on.
Well dang… The new jag set off the RUclips copyright algorithm for all apologies and heart shaped box
haha that’s how you know it’s good i guess
Oh man that sucks
Its super frustrating - I recently had a cover song be flagged as the original so I got a take down notice, and my appeals were rejected. Love your videos Aaron, I'm a huge fan of Nirvana and yourself!
Literally playing the individual notes of power chords. This shits busted
Lame :/
The slight growl in the pickups is BLISS
DUDE PLEASE MAKE AN ORIGINAL ALBUM OF JUST YOU PLAYING GUITAR YOUR ORIGINAL SOUNDS ARE AMAZING
Agreed!
wow, thank you! I honestly don't know what to say, you guys absolutely rock

@@dumpythehippo5818 ?
Yeah! That opening riff in the video is addictive!
that intro riff gave me chills that was incredible
i need to learn that
I'm just curious because i would love to learn it too. did you ever find out what song that is in the intro/ got to learning it?
@@msflowerhands1908 it’s an original of his own. I think it’s inspire by heart shaped box
yeah i wanna learn it too its so good
@@xxulta i dont believe so, but perhaps because the open riff is in Montage of Heck as well during one of the animation segnments
I want tab of this riff. Can anyone help me? It's freaking beatiful :)
I just wish your intros went on forever... some really potent visuals & cinematography... you really capture the essence of playing guitar, (especially sad nirvana tones).
Yet you also retain homage to the melancholic, intriguing and, explosive career of Kurt Cobain and, his legacy.
Keep it up!!
I can’t for the life of me find the song he plays in the intro. Is it an original?

you must be balling to be able to get all the gear to make these amazing videos. Your channel is captivating. thank you!

wow.. the initial part of the video completely detached me from reality.. a beautiful nostalgic sound suspended in time.
Beautiful sound and video, congratulations.
the quality of this video feels like a channel thats gonna blow up soon
Man this is just a warm sounding jag you have created.. i wish i could have something like that. Great video btw.. cheers!!

Just something about it, especially with heavy distortion or fuzz. It takes it really well, almost as good as a humbucker would in the same spot.
Definitely! I was super surprised when I compared the two.

I was craving this today. Love the videos!
Thanks!!!
Damn that is stunning. Lovely guitar. Also if that guitar set off the copyright algorithm then it really must sound identical haha.
Haha thanks noel!
i just wanted to say i love how your videos look! the aesthetics and lighting are def a vibe
What is the name of the song you are playing in the begining?

I have watched the intro an unhealthy amount of times... I haven't even finished the video
ME TOO!!!!
This is the best guitar tone I've ever heard. You're right to call it the "Holy Grail". I'll be lucky to build anything close to this grunge machine!
Amazing guitar man! Also I never thought of that lacquered pickguard to give it a vintage look it came out real nice
Thanks man!
I think it is possible that the position of the pickup so much closer to the bridge may have played a big part in the tone difference. Very interesting video! :)
This guitar sounds amazing! I would love to hear more of it in the future!

man, can you do a ¨Recreate that tone: Nirvana - Drain you¨??. i love drain you, its my favourite and i will love you too if you do that video
The single minded pursuit of something is a beautiful thing.
Truth
3:29 Fender Custom Shop: *Write that down!!!*
The guitar riff at the beginning of the video gave me goosebumps It's so beautiful😮
I have a MJT Jazzmaster, there's something with these ultra light bodies that really resonates. They all just sound amazing. Definitely the better pick when it comes to making your own builds compared to Warmoth for example.
I agree man! Light bodies for the win 🥇
holy shit, such a beautiful guitar 🥺 that’s my dream tone and definitely the most accurate cobain tone i’ve ever heard. Which company made the body for you?
I’m currently trying to mod out a Squier classic vibe Jag to Kurt Cobain specs. What was the tune-o-matic bridge that you used on your Jag?
Your video are literally the best you can find on YT. You're able to share your passion and giving us some good advice to develop Nirvana tone.
Thank you for what you're doing.
My first problem is that i haven't money to buy a simple mustang or jaguar so you can image for a vintage one 🤣 but i'm still trying 🤣
woah cool tones, i was suprised to hear the pickups were the same in the end, thought for sure your kurt jag just had ceramic pickups was the tone differnce but wow, more proof the guitar does matter, how its constructed and of what, not just electronics.
crazy right! Yeah it was the same exact pickup
the jagckal
Hey Aaron 👋
What are you playing at the beginning ?
Nice vid by the way, like always !
Thanks! that was just a random riff I came up with
Would you consider making a video about the measurements of the pick-up distance and other measurements on your jag? If it’s to much hassle I understand.
Please, PLEASE give us a full version of Heart Shaped Box from the intro, I would pay for that.
First of all wanted to say that this is one of the most entertaining guitar channels I've found on RUclips. And that's coming from someone who's a huge Nirvana fan but doesn't personally chase Kurt's tone.
One question I have on this build! Any tips for aging the tortoise pickguard? I have a Jazzmasater with a tort guard and I'd love to improve the look. Did yours start out a more dull red? Thanks!
its not everyday i get a notification from you but when i do, i know its a good day
haha wow that means a lot! thanks!!
The bottom end is shocking and at the same time it sounds prickly af. That sounded phenomenal man.
I think there’s a huge difference between the single coil and humbuckers , another great video!
u physically resemble kurt cobain in a way mark david chapman resembled john lennon bro but god damn thats a sexy guitar
Very interesting, I myself have a 2013 kc jag (bought new) and I had to do some changes to it.
The neck angle wasn’t right, plus the contact area from the neck with the body wasn’t great, so vibrations dint transfer well between neck and body. The nut had to be replaced by a bone nut, the bridge was replaced for a black abr1 from gotoh with raw brass saddles, plus I replaced the bridge pickup with a dimarzio 59 (I believe that’s the name). After all that it sounds pretty good.
Plus mine is the road worn, so the lacquer is thin and nitro, I believe.
Your jaguar looks and sounds amazing!
:)
What is the song in the intro it sounds sick!!!
I love that intro i wish it was a whole song
That jag is amazing dude. I need one asap lol
The Kurt Cobain sig sounds more like a gibson in the old video. The new jag nails it
HI guys any tab on the intro , Its amazing
Your original stuff is really amazing, you’ve gotta release your own music

Amazing video as always! I wonder what causes that hollow/whinny sound in guitars🤔
Good question! You and me both... really weird. I've had other guitars sound like this too
There is a almost infinite amount of variables that could cause that sound but my main theory is the finish or the wood of the neck/body/fretboard causes it
@@AaronRashIt’s the poly finish for sure
Bro, that's cos, 1-cheaper pickups and 2-long scale neck. Thats the reason your Kurt Cobainsig jag sounds diff. Sound of the guitar is PICK UPS plus Action, long scale v short scale, if you put those PAF pickups on a Kurt jag it'd the real deal.

Whats the first riff you are playing ? It sounds similar to HSB and I’d like to learn it 😁
Just a random riff I came up with. It does sound super HSB'ish
In that intro, you made that Jaguar tell us a story. Dude love your content, keep going!
Do you play in standard or half step down in this video? Because your heart shaped box and you’re all apologies, sound really good and I can’t figure out whether most of the stuff is played in half step down or standard. Because I just started playing electric guitar again and I am following you because I’m doing almost the same thing but not as intense going for a small clone and DS 1 next.
i’d assume he plays it same as the album, drop c#
that riff in the first 40 seconds is ALWAYS stuck in my head, I absolutely love that tone
is that just straight up the RG-120 and jag? or are you running pedals at all
very cool regardless :)
Very nice video, thank you for taking the long way home , & going the extra mile, to record the clips of the super dostortion & the stock setup.
I thought that was really cool .
People always throw off on his riffs, or his style an methods of playing guitar ..
Which, are actually not complicated riffs, or to simple, rather unique , especially as time has passed....
I at 33, hear less of the
"Cobain was not a talented guitar player..."
Which , is nice.. all the gear / signature models are always lots of fun..
(Congratulations, you have won!
It's a year subscription of bad puns... )
Thought the hi flier was definitely the all apologies guitar???
Aaron, could you do a favor to all hardcore Nirvana fans and ask Albini about the Big Muff and the third amp used on IU? If it was an Airline tube amp?
I will! He's been asked about that third amp a lot and really doesn't remember. I'll ask though and the big muff stuff!
i fell in love with kurt’s jaguar, watching him perform “love buzz” on live tonight sold out.
How you doing Aaron? Sweet sweet Jaguar 👌🏼
Man that pickguard tip is killer, why have I never thought of that 🤦🏻♂️ It actually looks awesome 👏🏼
Can I just say aswell Aaron, your playing is bang on now 👌🏼👍🏼
It feels like watching montage of heck or some fucking amazing movie about Kurt, this is my dream lifestyle and vibe, fuck yes keep up the good work man, I love it
That riff you played in the intro gave me chills…
its the pots dude, the kurt jag he used had 500k pots i think and the one you have was close to his spec wise, ive owned one too..

I know I was shocked too. Crazy!
Awesome video can you do verse chorus verse please?
Can you make a list of everything you put on this custom where are you got it plzzz I want the same one it sounds to amazing
Great job! I bet Kurt would've loved the sound of your Jag. Wouldn't surprise me if he would try to buy this one from you
please tune your guitars
Hell yeah! Very nice man. Well done and the guitar sounds great. Nice playing too 😎✊🎸✨😵💫
anyone know what the intro riff is so cool wanna learn it
i really wish i could build one like this but I don't even know where to start

They didn't give me back the blown speaker I spent over $400 on and didn't help with the questions I had so i'm kind of suspicious. I don't know much about amps and speaker and I wasn't able to find any info online so i thought id try to ask you! Really appreciate any ideas you may have. Thanks anyways & the videos are always great keep it up!
Nice... best guitar
Best one yet Aaron, have watched this several times now, what did you use for the rest of the electronics?
It would have been nice to see if the Fender Signature could have improved something by sanding the finish and painting it with something thinner, doing something about the pickups and swapping the nut. I understand sometimes it isn't even worth it considering the original price that its paid. Still, I am curious. Love the one you modded, pure grunge! I have always wanted to have a nice "Cobained" Jaguar in white or sonic blue. I The player classic HH model is nice, looks and sounds amazing. Some pleople have modded their Jaguar or Mustangs installing some SD P Rails, so you get three pickup sounds (more even if you use out of phase etc sounds), its amazing XD Love your videos man, keep rockin.
Anyway you can release tabs for the riff at the beginning? Sounds amazing!
The tone is almost similar! It needs a bit more mids! It’s close! I hear it but it sounds like yours needs a bit more mids. The bass feel of it is there. And high ends are spot on.
kinda sad bc i was wanting to get a KC jag
guys i think i figured out that little intro bit
What about the squire jag, did you sell it?
Still got it! I'll probably never sell it. It sounds awesome too
