How often do you get the chance to get your hands on an original vintage 1962 Fender Jaguar in the super rare custom colour, Sonic Blue? Well here on V&R we have only had 1-2 for sale over the years, so we were looking very much forward to demo this old & beautiful jewel.
The Fender Jaguar introduced in 1962 as a top-of-the-line model – designed to attract players from Gibson. The production ran over only 13 (1962-1973) years since guitarplayers found more interest in fx. Stratocasters and Telecasters. It achieved it´s popularity on the surf guitar scene. The one we have here is from September 1962. All original with case. Sonic Blue is a very rare custom colour for the early production Pre-CBS Jaguars, so we did not hesitate much when we were given the opportunity to demo this jewel.

Dream Sequence from Hologram Electronics
The Dream Sequence from Hologram Electronics landed on our desk a few months ago and the other day we took it out for proper test drive on our pedal board.
This pattern-based multi-effect pedal certainly is in a league of its own and is an endless source of inspiration for the creation of a wide variety of cool soundscapes. Like the name says, this little powerhouse combines a pattern sequencer with a bunch of effects geared towards spacey, pulsating sonic architectures with a rich, dreamlike quality and a distinctive synth-like feel.
We’ve always deeply appreciated Fender Custom Telecasters, and we’re excited to introduce you to our latest acquisition – an original L-series Pre-CBS 1965 Fender Custom Telecaster.

A Glimpse into Fender Custom Telecaster History:
The Fender Custom Telecaster stands apart from the Telecaster Custom due to its unique set of features, effectively making them two distinct models. In 1959, Fender introduced a groundbreaking addition to their lineup – the Fender Custom Telecaster. This model featured a double-bound body, marking a notable departure from the standard Telecaster design. Additionally, this year saw the introduction of slab-board fingerboards, further enhancing the instrument’s playability and aesthetics.
It’s important to note that, apart from the body binding, there are no significant differences from a standard Telecaster. The Fender Custom Telecaster’s allure lies in its distinctive binding, which adds a touch of elegance to this iconic instrument.
The new Dual Blue Delay from Mad Professor Amplification was recently launched. Last week it landed on our desk.
