Southern California-based, premium lifestyle brand, Brixton, has launched a new collection in collaboration with Fender Musical Instruments Corporation (FMIC), The Brixton & Fender 60th Anniversary Jaguar Guitar Collection to celebrate this milestone of the Jaguar—an iconic guitar that defies convention, design and sound.

“We’re excited to be partnering with Fender for the third time. There is so much synergy between our two teams and our companies’ approaches to product,” says Davide Mattucci, VP of Brand Marketing at Brixton. “For us, this collaboration was a no-brainer and we can’t wait to onceagain help champion the spirit of rock-n-roll alongside the legends at Fender.”

“The synergy between Brixton and Fender only gets stronger as we hope to inspire musicians and creatives alike through our continued collaborations,” said Richard Bussey, Vice President, Accessories, Lifestyle & Licensing “Our shared ethos of bringing music, creativity and innovation to the forefront of design – along with a storied history of welcoming together diverse cultures and creators – is a special moment for us especially as we celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the Jaguar guitar.”

The Fender Jaguar guitar was designed in 1962 and has been a fixture of the guitar playing community ever since. As universally beloved as this instrument is, it made a particularly potent impact on musical enclaves that existed on the fringes of popular culture. Some of the most prominent players in 60’s Surf rock, 70’s punk, 90’s grunge, and early 2000’s indie are among the Jaguar guitars most avid enthusiasts—and it’s no surprise why. From its offset design, to its unorthodox wiring and pickup switching capabilities, to its singular sneering tone, the Fender Jaguar guitar is optimized for the bold.

Who better to celebrate this anniversary with than Brixton, a brand that has similarly blended undeniable craftsmanship with unique style to create a product that unites people from a variety of lifestyles. Fender and Brixton’s commitment to quality and thought provoking design has made them both stand out in their respective fields for years, and now the only thing left to do is join forces.

The Brixton & Fender 60th Anniversary Jaguar Guitar Collection features Brixton’s famed flannels, graphic tees, headwear, and more. A radical departure when originally launched by Fender in the 1960s, the Jaguar’s unique shape and high-visibility chrome details served as inspiration for Brixton’s design team. With all of the collection’s product names derived from elements of the guitar’s features, items including the Jaguar logo tee and corduroy hat mirror the guitar’s angular look, while the pop-color pick pockets featured inside the hats are meant to mimic its bold chrome accents.

The Brixton & Fender: The 60th Anniversary Jaguar Guitar Collection features 12 unisex pieces that are available in multiple colorways to appeal to a diverse range of styles including:

• Fender Jaguar Heavy Weight Flannel Jacket, $149.00
• Fender Jaguar Claws Hoodie, $79.00

To support the campaign and help bring the collection to life, Brixton and Fender tapped Southern California native and lifelong guitar player Josh Landau, guitarist for Stolen Nova and The Shrine. Josh grew up by the beach – surfing the Venice waves and skating empty pools – and has always emulated his creative disposition around art and style. Josh makes for the perfect face of this limited release collection, uniting Brixton’s vintage-inspired fashion with Fender’s rich history and impact on music culture.

The full collection is now available for purchase at www.Brixton.com and www.Fender.com, along with select wholesale partners, priced from $30.00-$149.00.

The brand’s approach centers around classic silhouettes reinterpreted to meet the needs of modern living. Their products derive inspiration from workwear through several generations – from mariners and aviators, to cowboys and laborers, and beyond.
