Re: Show me some Jaguars, Jazzmasters, Mustangs

Re: Show me some Jaguars, Jazzmasters, Mustangs

Sure is. The J Mascis signature. Very cool guitar.
 
Re: Show me some Jaguars, Jazzmasters, Mustangs

I looked at this thread, almost posted, but decided it wouldn't be right if anybody but the banger posted first.

now that he's posted:

Re: Show me some Jaguars, Jazzmasters, Mustangs

oww with the block inlays. **** dude that's awesome.

we have such sweet guitars around here.
 
Re: Show me some Jaguars, Jazzmasters, Mustangs

God I cannot Stand Jags or Mustangs! I know this will endear me to many of you!
(edit-I got to wondering how i woud feel if I really liked something and someone came on and said , not that they sucked, but that they "couldnt stand them"?) I dont know , I guess it isn't the best move , duh!
Jag and Stang away, dont mind me! They are interesting to say the least. Actually I wouldnt turn down that burst posted.

why would you even go to a thread that's obviously about something you don't like, just to say you don't like it? i'd rather read a thread about something i do like and talk about how cool it is, personally.

uhh. As you can tell, the obsession is a bit stronger with Jags... (with looks and sound)

Final shot of my sweetheart ;)

Love the blocks and binding on liono :D Empty's orange cyclone is only a bit less cool than LSP's, lol. And the Mascis is just amazing...

I have a sunburst 'stang. It is my least favorite guitar though. The thing plays and sounds like crap in my opinion. I am pretty sure it is a 78. Thinking about getting some other pickups. Is there something other than stock that would sound better? I'll put some pics up tomorrow.
 
Re: Show me some Jaguars, Jazzmasters, Mustangs

yes, pics plz :D

If you like super hot output pickups, you probably won't like any stock Mustang pickups... While they're the same a strat pickups, Fender seems to have historically put very low output pickups in the Mustang. For people who prefer to have a nice clean tone and then crank the gain for heavy, this is nice :smokin:

They're tricky to set up and it's easy to get the bridge or tailpiece at a ****y angle where it won't work properly if you don't know how to adjust them properly (many people don't even reallize how/that they are adjustable).

IMO Mustang's aren't for everyone, but anyone who wants a strat with a heavier tone and more Gibson-like scale (not to mention improved fret access) would benefit from one. I think that most Gibson players would be more comfortable with a Mustang for those reasons... People complain about strat bridge pickups/trems etc., a Mustang gives that basic tone with a bit more percussive character and with the bugs worked out imo ;)

Rewards can be reaped by learning how to set up the Mustang. ;) If you still think not I'll buy it from you :laugh2: Then again late 70s Fenders can be odd in terms of quality (as just about everyone knows), I've seen Broncos (like Mustangs) with neck pocket gaps you could fit a dime in, lol. All the 60s ones I've played have been excellent, and MIJ/CIJs nail the tone IMO...

Ok, so it's a Music Master, but it's almost the same thing :D
 
Re: Show me some Jaguars, Jazzmasters, Mustangs

Dangly, that sparkly green one next to the sparkly pink one would've been the guitar of my dreams before i got gibson voodoo curses in my blood.

So say somebody wanted a Jaguar of their own -- probably in sunburst -- since you're the resident expert i figure i'll ask you the best way to go about doing it.

It's against the rules for me to buy anything new and i'd rather put it together from parts if that's cheaper...my Warmoth strat will be done soon and i'm gonna need a twang specialist now that my Fender sounds so bluesy.
