One has the regular black finish with weird pearloid-type pickguard found on the other JG models. Eventually, I stumbled unto this Japanese site that lists two finishes with identical features as the Fernandes JG-85s EV. Something I was unable to find in their regular catalog. This is a mix of all the features found on their various JG models. The two toggle switches below the knobs are to switch between regular and some other harmonic feedback setting or something, the other switch is for the Sustainer pickup. The two knobs are for guitar volume and Sustainer intensity. This also features a Fernandes Sustainer pickup, but not the same one found on their Sustainer Lite-series JGs. It has three single-coil pickups, a two-point tremolo bridge with roller saddles, a three-way toggle switch by the lower horn instead of the blade switch usually found on the Fernandes JGs and no tone knob. This model didn't appear on any of the catalogs Fernandes have on the internet. I'm not too sure about which came first but the Fernandes JG came out around 1996, right when Fender put out the Jagmaster as part of Squier's Vista series. This particular guitar is part of the Fernandes JG series. Fernandes have been known for their takes on the Fender shape and have remained in the business producing non-lawsuit guitars well after the time of those old Fernandes/Burny copies. I was finally able to identify it thanks to a comment by a fellow reader!Īnyway, here's a treat for you since you seem to be interested in Japanese guitars. Thank you for featuring the Grass Roots bass, by the way. I'm glad to see that the Guitarz crew take the time to listen to their readership.
