Jaguar Fender guitar (Click on the picture to enlarge)

>> I only know that a Fender guitar for a musician
>> must be something like an E-Type for a driver ...

Absolutely correct ... Older Fender guitars are very much a collectors' item, and like classic cars, who owned/played them in the past can have an important bearing on their value. Just imagine if you owned one of Jimi Hendrix's Fender Stratocasters. You could probably sell it and buy another E Type ;o)
Ditto for the Fender Bandmaster amplifier depicted in the advert.
I understand that the company has re released the Fender Jaguar, but of course, now comes out of a factory in Korea (I think). You can now buy Fender guitars which are made in USA, Japan, Korea, Mexico, and now (wait for it) ... China. The original USA produced are the most valuable, then it goes all downhill. A USA produced Jazz bass is about $1700, the Jap version about $900, the Korean version about $700 and the Chinese Mustang Bass (just released) about $400 out here. If you are interested in finding out more, see the massive Fender site. Have a look under "Guitars" - "Other" - "Collectibles" to see a 1962 Fender Jaguar.
The Fender Jaguar was around when I was playing in bands in Melbourne in the 1960s, the lead guitarist in one of my bands had one. My old Fender Precision bass guitar which I had from 1966 to 1972 (and sold for about AUD 100) would now be worth $6-7,000 now ... groan ... :o(
I currently have "feelers" out for a 1960s or 70s Fender Jazz Bass at the right price. This is to go with my "collector" 1974 Gibson "Ripper" Bass and 1964 Baldwin Burns Jazz Bass, both of which I use at gigs (fitted in between bouts of restoration on various Jags and Daimlers).
