Tidswell is playing the older version of the Kurt Cobain Jaguar in Violent Soho's 'No Shade' video. This guitar is not the newer 2011-2015, highly modified Jaguar. This model being played was released in the late 90's from Fender Japan. It has a larger more typical Jaguar headstock where as the newer one has a smaller strat style headstock. This Jaguar also uses a much more vibrant red colour pickguard, where the new one uses a much darker almost brown pickguard.
