Members Doctor Morbius Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 For the lazy folks, such as myself. I dig everything about it but the relicing and the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Special J Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 Really not much Jag about it except for the shape. It does look pretty cool though. I really do dislike relic'ing jobs that go that far though. Who neglects their instrument that badly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members greatmutah Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 That guitar would be way more awesome if it didn't have a relic job done to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members csm Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 Funnily enough, what the text DOESN'T tell you is the scale length. Jag-style 24" or standard Fender 25.5"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lonnie99 Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 Love everything except the Bigsby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members billythegoat Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 Cool beans! I would like to see a non-relic'd Squier CV model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vintage clubber Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 I'd take one of these and mod it: http://www.guitarfetish.com/XV-JT90-Offset-Hybrid-Guitar-GFS-Pickups-Black-Solid-Alder-Body_p_1114.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angry Tele Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 Funnily enough, what the text DOESN'T tell you is the scale length. Jag-style 24" or standard Fender 25.5"? its a tele neck so 25.5" if it were a jag neck it would be rosewood and have 22 frets. I like everything but the relic, the bigsby, the top hot switch, and the body shape. The best thing about jags and jazzmasters is the bridge and trem system. how is this not more a jazzamaster? Key features distinguising jazz and jag are 22 frets, the pickups, and the switching sytem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members csm Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 ^^^ ... and Jazzmasters have the full 25.5" Fender scale length. Which would indeed make it a Telemaster/Jazzcaster ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angry Tele Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 ^^^... and Jazzmasters have the full 25.5" Fender scale length. Which would indeed make it a Telemaster/Jazzcaster ... exactly. makes no sense to call this a Jaguar. There's not even one piece of superfluous chrome on it.

Key features distinguising jazz and jag are 22 frets, the pickups, and the switching sytem.AVRI '62 Jazzmaster and Jaguars have only 21 frets. Tone is in the superfluous chrome.

Members Angry Tele Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 jags always had 22 frets: thats part of the problem, shorter scale with even more frets yay! uh, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Doctor Morbius Posted March 25, 2012 Members Share Posted March 25, 2012 jags always had 22 frets: thats part of the problem, shorter scale with even more frets yay! uh, no.Just counted them. You're right, Jags have 22 frets. Oh, and how's a person supposed to play Penetration without 22 frets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and how's a person supposed to play Penetration without 22 frets? a lot of people either forget or dont know Uncle Leo made a 22 fret guitar as far back as 61. They think only 21 is vintage accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a Jaguar over a Jazz for that one fret to play this [video=youtube;D8oBFIwB5rA] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
