I've been in love with that jag for a while now. Have not had a chance to play one yet, though. Probably will buy, eventually.

Pricey. The last one up there has TV Jones classics, not sure about the black and white ones. They're priced just a bit cheaper than a Gretsch. 190,000 yen or so.

hard to explain in this economy but I don`t see them moving many domestically, bad timing and in this city anyways, Fender Japan just does not garner nearly as much respect as they do overseas. Hopefully if they don`t sell we`ll be seeing them at 50% off sometime in the future but till then I`ll just be looking.

Why are they so {censored}ing expensive?

 

 

Keep in mind, those prices are list, not street. Probably be able to knock 3-4man off at least in the stores, and a further 2 man if you know your dealer.

 

Aside from that, from what I understand, they're all limited runs - and I think these are the first hollow offsets FJ has done- that adds a bit to the price. The teles all have TV jones pickups (and if you're in Tokyo, you should know the going price for those over here).
