Fender Mustang vs Fender Jaguar | Why I Have Both

Bros out here on the internet complaining when their Les Paul is over 9.5lbs and you're rocking a 12+lbs jag!?! What a hero!

A few of the cool people who follow my channel sent me this and I'm really happy they did! Thank you for the shout out! When you said you named your Blue Jag Ariel I had a huge smile, that's the middle name we gave to our daughter who was born in... California haha. Great playing and love the positive energy.

I actually got into @AudiomoMusic when first looking into offsets, and the fact that Jim also loves the Tele didn't hurt any! His videos offer so much practical perspective on being a guitar player (or just a functional musician!), and it's great to see him get a shout-out here. I think you nailed it here that these two are "close enough" yet "different enough", which is perhaps ideal in particular contexts like you mention. Loved the mix of the two! I always say that comparing them in the mix with the final effect chain is important, as dirt has a way of either bringing out or subduing initial tonal differences of their individual resonant peaks.

I love how your playing samples morph into pretty cool tunes. Nice performance!

Glad to see I'm not the only one out there that mods the crap out of everything. I have been on the fence about picking up a Mustang for a while now, but you sold me. Fun video, nice playing!

Love the detailed explanations and Nisebelle your playing is so melodic, fun, and inspiring - meaning it makes me want to pick up my own Mustang and Jaguar and play!

Fun video! And a fantastic jam! Your playing is so good. I love the angular lines of your songs. And the melodic textures. Great stuff!

Wonderful review, always wondered the differences and now it makes a lot of sense why you’d want to have both. Beautiful playing!!!

Dang what a demo! And I totally agree on the sound, I don't own either but I knew a bit of what the Jaguar's capable of - it's nice to hear how the Mustang keeps up! It has a nice fullness that just sounds really nice, and definitely complements the kinda scooped jangle of the Jaguar. I know someone who might be big enough for a short scale guitar soon so I'll definitely keep this in mind!

These are not generally my style of guitars, nor was the demo tune my style of music, but the track had me totally invested. Super-fun and kept providing different flavors, I need to learn this! The playing was very consistent, and it's obvious you were having fun. Love that you would change to different pickups/settings frequently, and go right to the other guitar to hear the direct comparison, rather than other videos where it's clear the player mainly wants to wank around. Your thoughts on the guitars' strengths differences were very helpful. Thanks!

I was just wanting to watch a comparison video, but man, I was blown away by your playstyle!

Nisebelle i love the sound of both Cali and Ariel. Never thought i needed another Fender but here we are! Love your very technical style of playing. You are amazing ❤️

That demo segment is the coolest, jammiest bit of music Ive heard in a while! Big fan!

my opinion of the two were pretty much identical to yours. Never thought about owning either of these guitars as i typically play my HSS strat or my more metal oriented guitars but the way they both sounded with that OD pedal just made me fall in love. i may be adding two more guitars to my collection. Also those song you were playing were so lovely!

This is such a good comparison, thank you! Your playing is always such a treat to listen to, and I didn’t even realize how much more I liked the jaguar!

great video, awesome playing. I always find your playing style inspiring.

Hi there! Lurking viewer for your mod/build vids but your playing in this video made me want to reach out to my guitar so much. Thanks for the inspiration. Keep on rocking and have a wonderful holiday!

This is totally awesome. I've gone the more traditional route of Strats (for round sounds) and Teles (for that high clarity bite), but it's so cool to be introduced to the other guitars in Fender's line this way. Thanks!

Absolutely love the main demo track, it just builds and builds, and then just explodes when the fuzz kicks in. Top work, Nisebelle. Don’t have either a Mustang or a Jag (or a strat or that matter), and rely on Teles and LP Juniors ... but the temptation sure has been seeded!

Not for nothing, but I love when people name their stuff (obvi, in this case, your guitars). Great video! Also, +1 for rec'ing the Audiomo's JG vs. Mustang vid... thanks!
