These are discontinued and there was a sudden significant price drop, so I felt this would be a sleeper. (It was a sudden and brief burst of GAS, with a suitable remedy.) I've wanted a Jag in the arsenal for a while. This is my first Jag. I am well pleased so far. It's an excellent rhythm box with all kinds of tone options. So far out of it I've gotten Tele bridge tones, Strat rhythm pickup tones (yes, Hendrix), Gretsch-like bridge/neck tones, out of phase in between Strat tones, Rickenbacker chimy tones, chicken-pickin country tones, AC/DC-ish rock tones, punk/underground tones. It's not a lead player, but it handles everything else. And that's what I needed right now. (Hope I'm not violating anything by putting in this many pictures. I'm just pointing to photos on my own server somewhere else. Sorry if this is too long a post.)
Pretty good grain. I've seen 'em with 3 mis-matched pieces back there before.
This shows the actual color better. Probably the worst part is the lack of truss access.
Players view. Dot markers are in the wood rather than the binding. Don't know if you can tell, but the neck binding is white while the body binding is a kind of cream/parchment. A little odd, but not bad. Hopefully they will age closer together.
The headstock is almost identical to my 1966 Stratocaster.
It's bigger than a Strat box. I heard these are short scale, but the neck doesn't feel short scale to me. And the overall guitar is definitely wider and longer than a Strat.
Now I'm good. Thanks for viewing.
