Specialist note

In his pursuit to acquire the four key models in the development of the Fender electric guitar for his collection, David Gilmour purchased this Fender Jaguar in March 1978 from Gruhn Guitars, Nashville, Tennessee. The Gruhn inventory number was 100177 at the time of sale. Gilmour told us that the guitar has been used quite a lot in the studio over the years.
