Marr, most famously known as the guitarist with the Smiths but someone who has performed on albums by everyone from Beck and Pearl Jam to the Cribs and Modest Mouse, created a sound that shimmered and undulated. It was simultaneously transparent but filled with echo and delay and sonic trail vapors that all but defined the sound of Britpop in the 1980s. So many guitar players have emulated his sound — everyone from former Red Hot Chili Peppers member John Frusciante to Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood — that Fender finally saw fit to give him his own Signature guitar. After years of development, the Johnny Marr Jaguar has finally come out.
