Title: Jaguar/Jazzmaster/Mustang/Jagstang/offset waist guitar thread!
Post by: paengkee on November 08, 2007, 10:49:09 PM
so ive searched the forum but still no one has yet to post pics of these beauties. i recently bought an MIJ Mustang in blue and im pretty happy with it. the trem needs a little getting used to and the tuners bother me (might change em later) but all in all its a pretty and "non-mainstream" guitar.
ill post pics this week. for everyone else, show your "offset waist guitar" porn!

i'm assembling one out of Warmoth parts, pero the only connection to the offset waist guitars is the Jazzmaster body shape, the rest were "mongrelized" from other axes. Does that count?

building one this summer with jazzmaster 60's era specs plus some mods that I am doing. i am using an ebony fretboard instead of rosewood and I am using mahogany instead of alder with a maple neck. i am also replacing the jazzmaster bridge with a tone pros stoptail because those jazzmaster bridges tick me off with their intonation problems and i'd rather not have to deal with my intonation going to sh#t during a gig. pups are custom wound lollar p-90s in a jazzmaster casing. paint job will be similar to Gibby 50's spec gold tops with the greenish hue when tilted sideways and will be on the body and face of the headstock. neck finish will be an amber tint with a satin finish.
i bought the body and neck blanks from a stewart mac sale. since the cutting process of the body is nothing special (you can do it with a template and router), I will most likely just post pictures of the finishing process since the paint application is a bit tricky from what i've seen in local luthiery shops because it is very similar to applying sparkle paint. hopefully, this will help the local guys in tackling their next guitar project. i've never applied goldtop type paint so it'll be an interesting process.

fresher mercury (MIJ mustang copy) na nakuha ko kay IncX recently:
When i was on a hunt for "The Big Cat" i wanted a Lake Placid Blue sana, but this came and i got it nonetheless, from a non forumite. I love the general feel it brings when i play her :-D
The only thing i didn't like much about the Jag is the saddles :-( where the strings are arrayed on a screw like saddle and it's too shallow that the strings jump off of position when strummed aggressively. Tried and still trying to look for Mustang saddles to fix the problem.
@ Nickson:
Sir, what TuneOmatic bridge type did you install? Does it have the same radius as the stock ones? And lastly, are you selling the stock saddles you replaced? PM me if you are sir :-D I'm leaning towards this idea that's why (TOM replacement), mustang saddles are hard to find that's why :-( I'm checking the TOM bridges from Allparts and various ones now. Richard (Bossingboss) tried to order for me once but no success.

I got the TOM bridge for a VERY EXPENSIVE price of P350 in sta. mesa.

What pisses me is the fact that my 64 pre-Cbs JM was a custom color from Fender, in SHERWOOD GREEN METALLIC. It's similar to the acrylic used in Chevy's at the time. Pickups and most controls were original. The pickguard was replaced due to shrinkage.

CIJ fender jag :-) PUPs upgraded to Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounders :-) Bridge saddles replaced with mustang saddles :-) .12 string gauge Juicyyy! :lol:

Nice axe sir dodjie! Pucha, when was this? this looks like 20 lbs ago. :D
Che! :lol:
Narerecognize mo ba yung background? Sa 2nd floor ng Faculty Center sa Peyups yan. Diyan kami nag-iingay. Nagbayad pa kami sa office ng kuryente para ma-test yung Jazzmaster. Hwehehehe.
Metabolism really slows down when you grow older. Punyemes, nakaka 4 rounds ako ng kanin kay Mang Jimmy ng mga panahon na ito pero di ako kasing lapad ng sarili ko sa kasalukuyan. :cry:

pinalitan mo yung bridge? mukang mustang saddles yan a. and whats that u shaped thing sa baba?
yeh pinalitan ko ng mustang saddles. to minimize some of the buzz, and also, with the original ones, strings tend to jump out of their saddles. the U shaped thing is a buzz-stop. It increases the string tension across the bridge, and again, minimize the buzz and prevents the string (if you have the original saddles) from jumping from notch to notch. i highly recommend the two modifications... :-D

yes it is, im loving the shortscale neck. the pickups have an entirely different sound of its own and i fell in love with it the moment i plugged it in, dunno how much of the sound is affected by the funky vibrato system though.

Post by: uragi222 on January 19, 2009, 11:23:08 PM
Mustang - Totally different body(has 2 horns) compared to the jazz and jag, has 2 single coil pups.
Jazzmaster - Has unique jazzmaster pickups(dunno what it's called)
Jaguar - Has singlecoil pups(the usual jag cause ive seen some with humbuckers now)
One thing i see in common between the three are the switch type controls
Hello mga sir!
pig.fly newbie here. pa join ako dito sa forum hehe.
Sir diba yung sa jazzmaster, p90 na pickups yun?
I have a Squire Jagmaster and Im thinking of replacing the stock pickups. Medyo iba kasi talaga tunog kasi naka humbuckers compared sa Jazzmaster and jaguar .
I have a question. Ano masasabi ninyo sa pagpapa coil tap ? Anong sound ang lalabas sa humbuckers pag pina coil tap?
Thanks!

Haha salamat r_chino :-) actually dati nung naka humbuckers pa siya bihira ko lang talaga magamit ito, pero nung nakabitan ng mini-humbuckers tuwing na hawakan ko ito biglang ang hirap na ibaba kasi para sa tenga ko sarap na sarap ako sa "sweet" tone ng mini's.

Thanks Rj :-) Yup, it's just a Squire Jagmaster which came with the stock Duncan Designed humbuckers. Had an itch for a Jaguar/Jazzmaster so I modded and upgraded some parts which turned it into something far from how it originally looked/sounded.

Same here I really wanted P90's since I was really aspiring for a Jazzmaster. But at the same time I decided to experiment with mini-humbuckers coz I was intrigued with them since they have that "sweet" tone which is something in between single-coils and humbucker pickups.
I still dream for a real Jazzmaster, just like the pic above which los has.. But with this Jagmaster I really loved the outcome of the mods and pickup change :-)

I've also been long itching for that black n' chrome Jaguar HH which was actually one of my inspiration for my Jagmaster. And you're right, there was someone previously selling one in the classifieds.. I missed that too, lucky whoever got it.

i dont have pics but i have some clips with wanky,lousy licks.. :lol:
specs: *the stock PU just too weak and squeel alot with fuzz and high gain Od/dist so i've changed it to SD antiquity II. i modified it to enhance and maintain the tone(that's the reason for buying an offset,it has a very distinct tone) i dont see a reason buying an offset then putting a humbuckers on it(it's like taking away the essence of the guitar.,atleast for me :-)) *mustang bridge but still looking for that elusive MAstery bridge :cry: *it's MIJ, but i changed the electronics into american parts except for the switch, MIJ has a better switch than the AVRI. *changed the Pot to 500k
and visit this OffsetGuitars.com you will meet some good fellas out there :lol:.. thanks.. :-D

Purple Sparkle J Mascis Jazzmaster and Lake Placid Blue Jaguar. Time to learn surf guitar.
Yung Jazzmaster at Jaguar ang may sablay na bridge, and what others do is to replace the stock bridge with a Mustang bridge.
Actually, mas tumatalon yung sa bridge ng Mustang kahit pa naka 11 yung strings. Ang nawala lang eh yung problema sa tuning. Kung gusto talagang mawala yung problema sa bridge eh palitan ng Mastery bridge.

Baka makatulong to chong...a buzzstop... I had this installed on my jaguar... i think it added a bit more string tension between the tremolo plate and the bridge.. hindi na tumalon yung mga strings... or maybe i just didn't play it hard enough for the strings to jump! :-D
hmmm may nabasa ako tungkol sa mga jaguar... sabi tumatalon daw yung string sa saddle??? totoo ba yun?? parang nadicourage na tuloy ako bumili...
question ulit.. anong klaseng pups ba yung ginagamit sa Jaguar? single coils ba yun?? di kaya maingay kung ganun? sensya noob eh.
single coil for both jaguar and jazzmaster. mukha lang humbucker ang sa jazzmaster peru single yun. yup merun hum pag naka set ka ng isang pickup. peru pag nag sabay, cancel ang hum. yup, medyo tumatalon ang string sa saddle. peru masasanay ka din. its part of the vintage style...actually baka sa presyo ka pa ma discourage kung bibili ka... =)

All my offsets died in a blaze of amp GAS glory. :lol: That Telemaster looks so good. So you're OuttaspaceMan.
Thanks Bart :-) Yup, my old account here was OuttaspaceMan too. Unfortunately it got messed up so here I am with Satrun/Return.
Same here, but because of downsizing - the Jag-Stang is already gone and the Jaguar and the Jagmaster are in the classifieds now. But I'm not sure if I'm doing the right thing though.. If offsets just weren't sexy guitars.

hey Rob! GANda ng telemaster mo! :-) gaano katagal mo pinagawa kay mang MAx yung guitar mo?
Uy salamat Dex! It took me a month to plan and order the parts and then another month for Mang Max to build the body with sanding sealer. I brought it back na lang for refinishing after the rainy season back then. :-)
Hey btw.. How did the pickups go on your Jaguar?

Thanks Sam :-) I also saw Joseph's Telemaster kena Mang Max and after that I new this was the perfect opportunity for me to have a custom esquire since I've always wanted to have one.
Btw I put a Fender 5-way superswitch for this wiring:
1st position (bridge+tone) 2nd position (neck+bridge parallel) 3rd position (neck+bridge series out-of-phase) 4th position (cocked wah with .001uf cap) 5th position (cocked wah with .002uf cap)

been too busy with other international forums about offset guitars that I forgot to share my collection here :mrgreen: 1.) mid 90's Fender Jaguar (CIJ) - restored by Sir Arie 2.) discontinued Fender Toronado GT HH (MIK) 3.) discontinued Squier Super-Sonic Vista Series (CIJ)
yeah...no strings. pics were made on a cleaning day
I initially wanted a Super-Sonic too when I 1st got into offsets :-)
I meant to say "I was dying to have one" :lol: I no longer have any offset. Now, I only have 2 guitars, one amp, and a pedalboard that has been unchanged since early 2010. :-D

mabilis maubos kasi pre. sa ebay nga isang store pa lang nagbebenta. sa chinese e-shopping sites ka? hirap maghanap ng maayos na fender pag sa chinese. mga gibson at epiphone usually meron sa mga ganyang sites. sa dave's guitar site meron pa nitong Squier J Mascis jazzy...Johnny Air na lang or Manilforwarder solve na
dito sa Pinas pwedeng magkaron sa Perfect Pitch pero sobrang mahal na naman at taas ng patong panigurado (kasi nasa Mall at inclusive na ng tax) Rare din ang mga offset guitars at usually mga paisa-isa lang ang makikita dito. May nakita ako sa Megamall dati na Squier Duo-Sonic(Made in China) at yung all-black Fender Jaguar HH (Made in Japan ata) pero usual na mkikita dito mga Squier Jagmaster (Made in China)

Guys, Nat..I suggest we change the "PINOY" word to Fil or Filipino or Pilipinas...I read somewhere that PINOY is a derogatory word na eh..its associated with the hardheaded filipinos who dont contribute well to society...actually according to Carmen Pederosa..the new plotically correct term is "New Filipino" filipinos who are serious about change and are constantly improving their selves..and trying to break the old bad habits..hehehehe anyway..heres a few stuff to study and critique...for your review guys...I think Paltics Logo is awesome! the concept is SPOT ON, the racing stripe is funky! and the stars as tone and volume knobs is ingenious! ...anyway..if you guys have any suggestions or ideas..its great to share our ideas and skills..as our first team builidng project..hehehehe...

sarap i-mod to..isa pang neck PUP siguro (P-90s? na cream white)...switches.and tone knobs..kaya bang magroute ng pick upholes na hindi masisira yung buong finish? may ganito na ba sa audiophile?

Pasali na rin! Narinig ni Santa Claus ang aking pamaskong hiling. Actually, I had to scour through a couple of Guitar Center outlets in Las Vegas to finally pick up a red Fender Pawnshop Mustang. Before that, I had to find out if the Guitar Center in downtown Seattle had it, but they didn't either. Plus factor talaga na MIJ ang mga likhaing yan. Had to take it back with me to Seattle via hand-carry on the flight home.
It's now finally hanging with my other guitars along the apartment hallway. (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/kontra-bida/IMG_1774.jpg)
It's also great that the model is a string-thru. Ever since picking up my G&L Telecaster a couple of years ago, I've gotten into this configuration big time. (http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g145/kontra-bida/IMG_1790.jpg)

Interestingly enough, Johnny Marr has only picked up Fender offsets when he joined Modest Mouse. I read somewhere that he regretted not making that change earlier in his music career since the tone that those offsets create matches the one he imagines in his head.

The closest thing to an on-spec offset that Squier has produced still has to be that J Mascis model. Ala pa rin akong nakita sa Guitar Center. Of course, the last time I visited any of their stores was last month. Malamang meron na rin 'to sa showroom floor nila.

^all true. I never felt Johnny's distinct tone on Modest Mouse due to the guitar layering of the album. Modest Mouse is already okay with or without Johnny Marr IMHO. Although I really felt his vibe on The Cribs' Ignore the Ignorant. The Smiths music is still his "best sound" IMHO. I separately love Johnny Marr and the Fender Jaguar so the merging of the two is really awesome for me. I love his "contribution" on the Fender Jaguar by altering by having something like a Wronki's tele plate on a jag.
^Squier guitars are usually budget guitars and everyone knows how many added control plates, switches, etc.(added parts, wiring would also entail addt'l cost) on the standard Jag or JM so I feel that it's still really wishful thinking to have a cheaper version for these models in their classic forms. Anyway anything possible as seen on the J Mascis signature Squier Jazzmaster. This is still the best deal for a Squier offset guitar :)
I just don't understand the price tag of the fender swinger :-(
well the Fender swinger's price tag comes more from it's rarity and since it's a relic - an obsolete design from the 60s. I also see your point when you say that since the design was born out of the need to save costs and recycle unwanted parts from the old Fender factory. It also does not offer any special feature or functionality guitar-wise. It just looks different yet Fender-ish

In all fairness to MM and Marr, I think his relationship with the band isn't in the level of contributing to a composition. Looks like he was only hired to simply play guitar without much musical input from him (besides the fact that I heard that Isaac Brock can be a pain in the bee-hind to work with). I think his role in The Cribs was more prominent in the sense that they may have allowed him creative latitude over his guitar parts.

I have indeed, although I have no experience with the traditional JM/Jag/stang bridge so can't compare. I got my BT JM with a mastery so I'm spoiled like that. It's a great piece of hardware though, and is extremely solid. I haven't experienced any of the string jumping/saddle rattle/loosening saddle screws that people talk about with traditional bridges. I was also able to intonate with no problems with wound G string.

@gandydancer123: Monochrome are good live and have huge ass pedalboards. All of them. As for the future Fender, I'm looking to get a Japanese one actually. Truth is I'd want to get a CP, either a Jaguar HH in olympic white or a black JM. For the sake of availability, the MIJ ones aren't bad either. The purple sparkle Mascis is nice but I'll take whatever JM is tossed my way when I have the money. If I get a good deal, I'll spend the rest of my Fender budget on a Mastery bridge.

Apologies to current Japanese-made J Mascis Jazzmaster users. I've had this guitar before and I think that it has a design that has not been thoroughly thought of. It has a very thick, 7.25 radius neck coupled with a 9.5 radius tune-o-matic bridge. I couldn't properly setup the action across the fret board. The high and low E strings are higher than the rest because of the neck's convex curvature and the bridge's flatter radius. Although the jumbo frets compensated for that, it was, speaking for myself, awkward to play. I think the new Squier J. Mascis JM is a much better bet. It's cheaper, well crafted, and has a 9.5 T-O-M on a 9.5 neck. There's some news going around that Squier will also release the sparkle edition. Now that would be cool.

How's the feel on the Squier JMJM? I heavily considered it at one point but considering the amount of upgrades I'd have to spend for, I might as well get a Fender. If I spent extra money on a refin or a pickguard change, I could probably just wait it out until someone starts selling a good CP or MIJ here. I didn't know that about the purple sparkle. Apparently, I'm sideways disappointed. :( I guess I'm looking for a vintage Jap or a CP then. Either way, I'ma have to look for a good deal and then spending the rest on a Mastery.
Treblinka is an acoustic thing. I do a synthpop thing called Love in Athens (my PGT username) and my main band's an indie rock band called Mount Analogue. We love offsets there too.

Climbing Mount Analogue By Gary Lachman
Sometime in the year 1924 a precocious French poet named René Daumal had a mystical experience that became the determining event of his life.
Soaking a handkerchief in carbon tetrachloride— a powerful anesthetic he used for his beetle collection— the sixteen-year-old Daumal held it to his nostrils and inhaled. Instantly he felt himself “thrown brutally into another world,” a strange other dimension of geometric forms and incomprehensible sounds, in which his mind “traveled too fast to drag words along with it” (Daumal, Powers of the Word 164).
It was his first encounter with what he would later call “absurd evidence”— “proof” that another existence lies beyond the conscious mind. Obsessed with the mystery of death, René was determined to peek at “the great beyond.” When the anesthetizing effects of the fumes proved too great, René’s hand would drop from his face. He would then regain consciousness, his mind reeling— and his head aching— from its recent plunge into somewhere else.
René repeated his experiment many times, sometimes alone, sometimes with friends, always with the same result: the conviction that he had briefly entered“another world,” one infinitely more real than our everyday reality. He may have taken his trip hundreds of times, and it is almost certain that his repeated use of carbon tetrachloride started the weakening of his lungs that led to his deathf rom tuberculosis in 1944 at the age of 36.
If all René Daumal did in his short life was to experiment with drugs and write poetry, he probably would not be remembered today, except by students of obscure French literature. But unlike so many other youthful travelers into “the beyond,” before his death Daumal managed to capture some of the insights gleamed from his dangerous interior journeys. Nowhere did Daumal come closer to communicating most clearly something of the strange “other” reality that he observed in his harmful adolescent experiments and dedicated his life to penetrating than in his last, unfinished novel, Mount Analogue (1952).
Symbolizing a “way to truth” that “cannot not exist,” Mount Analogue towers above the everyday world like a spiritual Everest. An ardent climber, by the time he tried to make this metaphysical ascent, Daumal had added a few items to his alpinist’s gear. Jettisoning the uncertain “heights” of drugs by 1939, when he first contemplated the novel, Daumal had been for many years a student of the teachings of the enigmatic Armenian G. I. Gurdjieff, communicated through Gurdjieff’s long time disciples Alexandre and Jeanne de Salzmann.
Mount Analogue
Subtitled A Novel of Symbolically Authentic Non-Euclidean Adventures in Mountain Climbing, like all good parables, Mount Analogue resists final interpretation. A riveting adventure story, it is also a modern day Pilgrim’s Progress. The plot is simple. Led by the Professor of Mountaineering, Pierre Sogol (de Salzmann), eight adventurers board the yacht Impossible to discover the invisible but “absolutely real” Mount Analogue. Though it is hidden from ordinary eyes, Sogol pinpoints its location through a series of supra-logical deductions involving the curvature of space.
Convinced of the necessity of Mount Analogue’s existence, the crew eventually arrive, set up camp, and begin the ascent, along the way discovering the strange, nearly invisible crystals called “peradams.” These symbolize the rare and difficult truths discovered on the spiritual path, and reflect Daumal’s own lucid, limpid prose. There are insightful studies of the different voyagers— embodying Gurdjieff’s classification of types— a fascinating portrait of de Salzmann, and penetrating analyses of Western civilization.
Although the book’s fragmentary character is in keeping with Gurdjieff’s “work”— Ouspenksy’s own masterpiece In Search of the Miraculous was originally titled Fragments of an Unknown Teaching— the fact that Daumal did not live to complete it is a tragedy. And yet, when we look at Daumal’s brief but eventful life, it somehow seems fitting that this spiritual voyage of discovery would be cut short. There is no question of Daumal’s dedication to his goals or the integrity of his pursuit. But his approach to the higher regions took more perilous routes than were necessary.
Of his youthful drug experiences, Daumal (Powers of the Word 169) wrote that, if “in return for the acceptance of serious illness or disabilities, or of a very perceptible abbreviation of the physical life-span, we could acquire one certainty, it would not be too high a price to pay.” In scaling Mount Analogue, Daumal was as courageous as any terrestrial climber, yet there is a strain of spiritual and physical masochism in his credo. Others who followed Gurdjieff’s Spartan path were similarly neglectful of the flesh.
For Daumal, the idea that the absolute was some inaccessible region started early. That a teenage Daumal would make “crazy” attempts to reach “the beyond”is understandable, but that he should persist in later years suggests immaturity and an irresponsible attitude to his health. The fact that the heights of Mount Analogue are invisible, and the yacht his adventurers board is named Impossible, argues that even after Daumal had moved beyond his dubious experiments with drugs, he continued in the same mind. In choosing a mountain as the locale of his last, great effort, Daumal certainly had the rigors of Gurdjieff’s “work” in view. Sadly, it may have been precisely this punishing attitude to attaining the spiritual heights that helped bring about his tragic,untimely death.
Yet such considerations should not prevent us from appreciating his work.Since its rediscovery in the 1960s, Mount Analogue has remained one of the classics of “metaphysical adventure,” a spur to thousands of spiritual travelers, prodded out of their armchairs by its surprisingly restrained account of Daumal’s last conscious excursion into the unknown. Perhaps aware that he would soon be taking an even more mysterious voyage, Daumal made sure that he left as clear a trail as possible for those who followed.
Before his death, he left an outline of the novel’s remaining chapters. “At the end,” he said, “ I want to speak at length of one of the basic laws of Mount Analogue. To reach the summit, one must proceed from encampment to encampment. But before setting out for the next refuge, one must prepare those coming after to occupy the place one is leaving. Only after having prepared them, can one goon up” (Mount Analogue 104). The title of this last chapter was to be “And You,What Do You Seek?” For all his detours and wrong turnings, with Mount Analogue Daumal undoubtedly left a valuable way station for all who would comeafter him.

Hey, I strongly suggest you guys visit the classifieds. Teenage_Bandits is letting go of his AVRI Jaguar. If I had that money at the moment, I'd take it myself. :( If you're looking to trade, there's someone in the classifieds looking for an MIJ Strat or Tele in exchange for his Fernandes JG-65 Sustainer Lite (the one with humbuckers)

American Reissue
Fender only started reissuing an American made Jaguar in 1999, as part of their "American Vintage Series". The colours that were offered on the Jaguar in the 60's are not really faithfully replicated in the current offerings that we see today. Colour options have come and gone over the last several years (though all come without matching headstock).
Sunburst fiesta red (discontinued 2002) candy apple red (discontinued early on) olympic white black sherwood green (discontinued) inca silver (discontinued) ice blue metallic ocean turquoise surf green Fender actually sent a batch of matching headstock US reissue Jaguars to Japan at one stage. Colours seen include shell pink, burgundy mist and ice blue. There is currently a batch of special order thin skin matching headstock American Jaguars by dealers such as Wildwood Guitars and Dave's Guitars and made in small numbers as exclusives. The colours are Fiesta Red, Seafoam Green, Sonic Blue, and Shoreline Gold. Custom shop Jaguars can also be ordered specially, usually with great expense. Though, strictly speaking, these are not classed as "American Vintage Series".
Fender markets the American Vintage Jaguar as being manufactured through,
"careful selection of materials and strict adherence to the original methods of fabrication".
However, these differences have been identified:
Body base coat. Frank Gambino has written in to tell us: "the USA Fender reissues have a urethane base coat. However, the color coat is nitro. I am certain because I have stripped one of these guitars(2003) with acetone, and tested two others(2004-2005) in small areas under the pick guard. The top coat and color coat remove very easily, as you would expect with nitro. The base coat, however, must be sanded off (i.e. acetone does not affect the base coat). I know this is true for ice blue metallic and ocean turquoise anyway"
The neck is nitro though.
Decal. The reissue decal is also gold. But the vintage '62 gold part of the decal had a speckled, raised, glitter-like appearance. The US reissue has the uniform non-raised gold logo. The lettering for the des. and pat. numbers is also smaller on the reissue. Machine heads. Official Kluson machine heads are different in appearance now to what they were in the 60's. Fender use the most faithful replicas of the old style tuners, which happen to be the Gotoh ones. Consequently, they do not bear the brand name "Kluson Deluxe" on the back of the gear housing. Neck plate/other plates. The neck plate is too thin. The vintage 60's metal plates have a rough appearance round the edge, as if they have been cut without the edge actually being polished as the US reissue plates have been. Switches. The main switch on the upper horn control plate on vintage Jaguars was different to the switches on the diamond shaped control plate. This is not the case on the reissue, on which all the switches are the same. Pickups. The reissue pickup pole pieces are beveled. Vintage pole pieces were completely flat. The reissue bridge pickup also has raised pole pieces. The shielding claws seem to have the short fingers at the treble side on every AV jaguar that I've seen. Pots. Reissue has CTS pots (which are fairish replicas of the ones on '64 or '65 Jaguars and onwards). 1962 Jaguar had Stackpole pots, which are different in appearance. Knobs. The set screw which holds the knob in place has a flathead fitting on the Vintage Jaguars. But it is an allen key fitting on the Reissue. Mute. As with the other plates, the metal has a rough edge on the vintage mute. It also looks less well shaped than the reissue. Bridge/saddles. Vintage bridge has longer posts, which means the height adjustment screws do not need to be extended out of the bottom of the posts very far. The bridge height adjustment screws are either nickel plated or stainless steel. On the the reissue those same screws are just plain steel painted black. On all the US reissue bridges, the saddles are nearly the same size thread (only a slight difference between the 11 thread treble saddles and 9 thread bass saddles). On the '62 Jaguars the barrel threads often varied in 3 sizes sometimes. The posts of the vintage bridge have welds over the rivets where they are affixed to the rest of the assey, the Reissue doesn't. Tremolo arm. The reissue tremolo arm is a slightly different shape/length. Also, The way the reissue trem arm goes in the collet is a bit of a redesign from the vintage trem arms, which were wedged into the collet and stayed in the same place. The reissue arm has a small lip round the bottom with which it suddenly clips in and doesn't come out, unless some force is used. Secondly, when clipped in it swings freely, effectively like a stratocaster trem arm. This is probably what it is supposed to do. But if you wanted to make the reissue more like the vintage trem arm setup, you could visit: http://home.comcast.net/~rmessick2/Home.htm
12th fret dot position. Dots on the Reissue are closer together than the '62 Jaguar.
Above, a picture taken from the internet guitar store "Musician's Friend", depicting the colour options available today on US reissue Jaguars. Notice tortoiseshell pickguard on the ocean turquoise and surf green ones. Only ice blue metallic comes with aged white/mint pickguard nowadays.
Japanese Reissue
Fender of Japan have been producing Jaguar reissues since the mid 80's, and are still making them to this day. Currently, the only Japanese Jaguar that is officially available for sale in North America is the Jaguar Special (JGS-75) and Jaguar Baritone Special (both available in black only). Likewise, these models are also available in Europe. Though one can also find the '62 Japanese reissue in sunburst, candy apple red and vintage white also. Many other colours were also available up until recently. Possibly due to the activities of the company called "Fendershop". But the options are now limited to those already mentioned.
In actual fact, Japanese Jaguars (and Japanese Fenders in general) are manufactured in many other colours and hardware configurations. See them for yourselves over at Japanese guitar sites such as Ikebe-Gakki, Ishibashi or Rockinn. Ishibashi have recently made their website viewable in English. And it is now fairly straight forward to buy from them. Though buying from Ikeba or Rockinn still seems to remain impossible unless you speak Japanese. The sites are practically impossible to navigate, and I'm not even sure if they ship outside of Japan.
In the U.S.A, various runs of more affordable Japanese Jaguars are made available, from time to time. And the recent officially imported Japanese Jaguar (which was available in only 2 colours, candy apple red and lake placid blue without matching headstock) is no longer available, discontinued some time in 2003. In the UK and Europe, Japanese Jaguars have seemingly been more common over the years.
Claims like this have been going around, mainly on eBay:
"Japanese Jaguars manufactured for the Japanese domestic market are made to far better standards than those made for export to the United States/elsewhere "
This is almost certainly untrue, as is the claim that CIJ models are superior to MIJ. In the mid 90's, Fender of Japan changed the decal next to the serial number to read "Crafted In Japan" , where the decal had previously read "Made In Japan". This change is simply cosmetic. No other changes took place at this point. Changes have occurred on the Japanese Jaguars in the past though. I know that the earlier ones had basswood bodies and shielding plates in the routes. Nowadays, body seems to be alder and there are no shielding plates. Construction/materials quality may have varied over the years. Fretboard is veneer on all that I've seen. Japanese body and neck are finished in polyurethane gloss, have pearl dots, black Fender logo surrounded by gold, similar to the ones from the late '60's and onwards. In fact, I think it would even be more accurate to claim the MIJ/CIJ decals are '68 reissues. Also note how it says "with synchronized floating tremolo" instead of having Des. and Pat. numbers. It has no serial number stamped into the neck plate, just a blank chrome plate. And instead, the decal on the back of the neck has the serial number on it. Pots are of a much lower quality, as is the wiring. Only the older reissues seem to have shielding plates in the routes. There is no mute or bridge cover. Basically everything about the guitar is distinguishable from the old or new American version.
Japanese coding system explained:
The first 2 letters (JG) mean Jaguar. The 2 numbers that follow are supposed be the reissue year. But they all say '66. Then there is a dash, followed by some numbers (ie, 85). Which is the suggested retail price in Japanese Yen (ie, 85,000 Yen).. Followed by the colour in brackets.
A "JG66B" code followed by a "110" suggested retail price means the guitar is a genuine '66 reissue with block inlays, binding and Schaller F keys.
Jaguar special (or "Jaguar HH" as it is generally now referred to in the west) was a "75" for retail price. This may have been changed to "83", and for some colours be "86". Meaning it is 83,000-86,000 Yen for a Jaguar special. Although there has been some sort of announcement by Fender Japan on their website recently about a general increase in their prices. So this list may need updating somewhat...

unless you're getting the blacktop JM for a very good deal, I'd say with the amount of upgrades you're planning to put in, you're probably better off getting a classic player or cij and then upgrading that later.
a squier mascis JM with a refin and new guard is a better deal imho, plus with the TOM bridge, I don't think you really need a mastery.

Just re-did my budget plan. I just got a bit crazy since the Mascis goes out of stock a lot from what I've heard. I'm not going for a refin at all but I'm getting a white guard and some black amp knobs. I like how the JM Jaguar looks and I might use that as a peg for the Mascis. Did some reading and it's really not worth the trouble of going to a luthier to have the routes re-done. Maybe I should just invest in a better jack and have someone do the wiring better so it's up to CP spec? I dunno. It's made with cheaper components but if it's okay under the hood I should be fine.
GIVE ME A COUPLE OF MONTHS. PASOK SA BUDGET.

Medyo may issue lang ako dito, talaga bang masmakipot yung pagitan ng holes sa stoptail niya kesa sa dun sa gitna mismo ng saddles? para kasing di sila parallel tulad ng sa LP bridge assembly. sa mga Fender Jags/JMs users paverify naman po...
It's the same shape but the route used in "real" Jazzmasters/Jaguars has accomodations for a the trem-loc button para mafix ang bridge. I don't have a Jazzmaster on me but I will get back to you on the string spacing.
i really appreciate customized offset guitars....wala yan sa kung Fender, Squier or RJ pa man yan (iba lang ang d.i.y. attitude and aesthetics ng offset guitars imho) May parts na nga ako for a jaguar project kaso walang budget pambuo...masyado kasing umiikot mundo ko sa OSG at impluwensya ng pagbuo ng sariling gitara...yang si Francis true-offset indie rocker talaga (wala sa pana yan, nasa pumapana...pamatay nga mga demos at albums niya) fan ako niya at pls. suportahan natin banda nya. Mga myembro ng Monochrome at Mt. Analogue certified P.O.G.I. mga yan!
Gandy, tutal may dent na yang bagong strat mo..tapyasin na natin at i-relic para mging offset....tama na yang pagka-OC at maalaga, hahahahaha!!! :-D balitaan mo ako kelan yang plano mong icheck yung jag AVRI from PGT :-D

yung sa trem plate ba? I think I read somewhere na mas makipot yung mga butas sa import/mij version kesa sa american version. I don't think they're 100% parallel even on the AVRI. ok lang yan, wala naman atang diperensya :)
Just re-did my budget plan. I just got a bit crazy since the Mascis goes out of stock a lot from what I've heard. I'm not going for a refin at all but I'm getting a white guard and some black amp knobs. I like how the JM Jaguar looks and I might use that as a peg for the Mascis. Did some reading and it's really not worth the trouble of going to a luthier to have the routes re-done. Maybe I should just invest in a better jack and have someone do the wiring better so it's up to CP spec? I dunno. It's made with cheaper components but if it's okay under the hood I should be fine.
GIVE ME A COUPLE OF MONTHS. PASOK SA BUDGET.
Yeah, I'm guessing stocks of the Mascis will stabilize by March/April after all the initial excitement sort of dies down. Looking at some teardown pics of the squier mascis online, it looks like they used decent electronic components (open switch and alpha pots), so unless anything breaks down, I don't think you'd need to change anything out, unless you want to change pot values.

Yeah, I figured. If I was going to tear everything up under the hood, I should've just gotten a CP. I don't have the money for that so I'll expect to get what I pay for. Btw, links nga para sa teardown plz. :3

Hello guys! Any reviews or insights regarding the Squier Jagmaster? I'm leaning on getting one since I've been a lifelong Fender Strat and Tele user and I think an offset beater guitar would be nice. I plan on changing the pickups to Seymour Duncan Phat Cats if I ever do get one.
Thanks! Any comments will be pretty much appreciated. :-D

It's definitely a beater! Playable and really great if you have plans of modding. Sick_angel14 is selling a modded Squier Jagmaster. I'd get it myself if I didn't already set a Jazzmaster budget. He added Jaguar plates and the Jaguar switching system! Worth it, IMO. If you find a Vista series (says Vista on the headstock where you'd normally find the offset body mark), that's really good too. Manufactured for Squier by Fender Japan before moving operations to China.

Ace Hardware has rolls of adhesive aluminum tape. The adhesive side is not conductive tho, just make sure you fold the ends so the tops of each piece make contact
been a while, but my BT JM got a new guard makeover recently, still black but no longer warped and looks spankin' new :) :

Post by: rjthemute on February 10, 2012, 02:07:30 AM
Thanks. Not a lot of mods actually, the biggest thing is the additional routing needed to fit a jazzmaster pickup in the bridge position and a switch in the rhythm section area. I initially intended to keep the neck pickup stock but I broke it trying to change the cover :). So both pickups are GFS JM90s; switch is a phase switch; used 500k pots instead of the 1Meg usually used by JMs; changed tuners to vintage style split posts; and a new guard. The mastery came pre-installed :)

How do you find the GFS JM90's? :)
Swerte mo kasama na pala yung mastery!
Trip ko mods ng sayo, if I had a blacktop JM I would do exactly what you did. :)
Sakin the only mods I did with my JM was to replace the 1 meg pot to a 250K pot, soldered in a PIO cap and dabbed some clear nail polish on the adjuster screws for the saddles and bridge post to keep them idle instead of moving around. Then I set it up with a high action on the strings to help prevent string jumping. But would love to have a mastery bridge one day..

Yep, swerte talaga, natuwa nga ko na sinama na niya e, haha
The pickups sound pretty good. I'm no tone connoisseur and don't have experience with higher end pickups, but they sound good to me, very fender-y, a little surf-y maybe, just bright and twangy enough for my tastes and having been a 'bucker guy, I didn't find them thin sounding at all (maybe bec of the 500k pots, idk). They handle gain pretty well too. The few demoes on youtube are pretty accurate. I do wish I hadn't broken the stock neck pickup tho, I really like how that one sounded.

Ay, oo nga naman. So the only routing done was for the bridge bucker. Looks like the pickguard has been changed as well (upper horn switch and knobs). What about the mastery bridge? Is it a perfect fit? Can you just drop it in without any mod?

Because we are fortunate enough to be in the US. We have to keep in mind that a lot of things are not readily available in the Philippines, and that they're sold at MSRP. So PHP 110K is pretty much right at the ball park.

actually you can get it on a cheaper price depending on your connections in the US...sa shipping cost lang nagkakatalo. im not in the US but most of the stuff I buy there is coursed through manilaforwarders in LA. kelangan mo nga ng account at correspondent na maayos...wag mo lang ipapadaan sa customs or sa post office - pag dun dali na talaga :-D

dadaan for sure sa customs pag direct sa Pilipinas ang mga ganyan. Order ka sa guitar center pero ipa-ship mo na sa Manilaforwarders. Trusted ko na to dati pa. Umoorder ako ng mga cds, shoes, etc. in a balikbayan box at from sa kung saan-saan sa US pero always ko pinapa-ship sa Manilaforwarders.

Having it as your second Jaguar, did you notice any difference with the sound and neck shape compared to your first Jaguar?
My third, actually. The first was the lake placid blue CIJ.
This one seem to have a slimmer neck profile. I'm quite positive that the first one had a beefier neck, close to the AVRI. The CIJs were pretty similar in tone.
The second one was the AVRI. Compared to the CIJs, the tone was thicker even with stock pickups. The neck was the chunkiest among the three, but it was the most comfortable to play. It was strung with .012 flatwounds but it played like having had .010s. I don't know, probably because it was professionally setup.

Non-Fender offset time! Posted this on the Pinoy Offset Guitars FB group. Inggit ako sa mga new additions ninyo. :3 I really think this is a Fernandes JG-85s EV because of the pickguard but this may also be a Fernandes Decade J1s. Either way, it's MIJ and a higher end model compared to most of the JG series. Currently my main gigging guitar.

They have Allparts pickguards and white witch hat knobs (Although not historically correct as they have a beginning zero.) Although they only have it for split shafts.
Thanks Bart, and yeah, I will definitely check that website . Baka sakali meron din sila nung Allparts Jazzmaster Electronics kit para kumpleto na including the brackets. :)
Body and neck including the pickguard was made by Mike Sison and crew. He might make me one again with the holes for the rhythm circuit although his colors are only white and black. Gusto ko sana ito: http://www.wdmusic.com/fender_jazzmaster_pickguard_jz-1408.html
Then lalagyan ko ng white knobs and switches. But when I saw the shipping price(cheapest is as much as the pickguard itself), baka hindi muna, pag nagka-extra cash ulit. Tinignan ko rin sa warmoth, meron sila nung blue pearl that looks like water kaso nung ready to order nako nakita ko na may disclaimer sa baba saying kasya lang daw yung sa mga Warmoth bodies. My guitar's screw holes are patterned after an American AVRI.
Pots are Bourns which I believe are 250k. I couldn't find a 1 meg pot back then and we ran out of 500k(For those who don't know yet, I'm Mike's partner in the effects and guitar parts business). The 250k pots turned out to be just fine maybe because I like warm sounding guitars and I think it's still chime-y. I'm sorry I don't know what caps did Mike use, I'll have to ask him.
I have a friend here who has an Angry Angus Jazzmaster with a Mastery bridge. I'll ask him one of these days for a meet to compare. The guy strums hard, real hard, so I want to see how my traditional-style bridge with the .012 string set will fare versus the Mastery. I read that JM's should have heavy gauge strings if you don't want to change to TOM or Mastery.

Thank you for the reply, bro. Yeah, Warmoth parts are mostly compatible with their necks and bodes. Check ebay, too. Every now and then, there are Chinese vendors who sell p/guards in non-standard colors. I assume that they ship to the Philippines since you guys are in the same region.

Di ko nagustuhan. I tried those, the Mosrite copy and the Jagmaster (both the p90 and the humbucker versions) and I could say that the Jagmaster is easily the best in terms of sound and feel. The Mosrite copy second. The Mustang and the Jet King copies are the worst tone/feel-wise.

yung manilaforwarder at johnny air door to door talaga yun. ang technique lang para makatipid is ipunin for a balikbayan box lahat ng small items na bibilhin mo. yung re: sa neck, pwede naman yun depende sa arrangement niyo ng seller (for ex. sa ebay)...but sa mga nabili ko na before, buo na shiniship yung mga gitara. nasa loob naman siya ng box, properly protected may bubble wrap or styro sa loob. may insurance din yan

Thanks. :-D Gusto ko sana ng Oly White, kaso good deal ko nakuha kaya ok na rin. Refin job na lang later. Balak kong palitan ng 4-way Tele switch later ala Johnny Marr.
ayus to pre! eto iniisip ko since last year pa... naka-score na nga rin ako ng ganitong switch at matching customized chrome plate(courtesy of stereodinary ng OSG)
Specs: Pine Body Stewmac Bound Rosewood board Lollar Jazzmaster Pickups Japanese-made bridge and trem system Medium frets Gotoh tuners Strings: D'Addario .012 Jazz-Blues.
The pickguard and knobs are just temporary. There is a provision for the rhythm circuit which I'll be putting in once I find an online store that sells it.
ganda nito bro...sobrang pogi! post mo sa pinoy offset page :)

My POGI project
This is my custom partscaster jaguar...still unfinished(due to budget constraints) and been building this for 2 years already. I have completely gathered all the parts for this project so I'll just have to take these to a local luthier for assembling and finishing. I got most of these from ebay so I had to painstakingly bid on each item and grabbed on the cheapest deals. I also have it shipped in a single package via Manilaforwarders.
1.) this is the design i have in mind (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/design1.jpg)
2.) the parts:
a.) the body - Japanese (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0214.jpg)
b.) the neck - Mexican (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0220.jpg) (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0221.jpg) (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0223.jpg)
c.) the pickups - Semour Duncan quarter pounds (sjag-3 A & B) - for higher output. i have also have the pickup covers for the these(although not recommended by SD)...i have two options: chrome-y or hole-less (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0205.jpg)
d.) set of brass shielding to minimize feedback (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0206.jpg)
e.) pickguard - cyan brushed aluminum (from Hong Kong) (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0207.jpg)
f.) capacitors, wiring, etc. control assmbly from Acme (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0208.jpg) (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0209.jpg)
g.) chrome plates (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0212.jpg)
h.) telecaster switch and mustang bridge(common mod for jag, can't afford the mastery lol!) (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0218.jpg)
j.) the wronski plate(for the tele switch) - same idea as the johnny marr telecaster switch but with less modification on the body. the problem is solved due to the inclined switch hole and the good side of this is you can still restore it to the conventional lower control switch configuration. i was able to score this item from Stereordinary of OSG. he sent me a surplus of aluminum plates for free. got two(2) of these till the more durable chrome plate was ready and available
...and some blacktop witch hat knobs (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0216.jpg)
k.) paint - sherwood green nitro (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/POGI/DSCN0204.jpg)
l.) money for assembling.... Now that's a different story. lol! So this project's still on hold. Hopefully i can finish this project within this year and show you guys the finished product.

@ paltic: Very niiiiice, bro. Hindi ako umabot sa latest na batch order ni stereordinary kaya ako na lang gumawa. Parang yung aluminum plate mo dahil wala akong makitang polished chrome plate. Pero may nakita akong blank na chrome wall switch sa amazon.com, yung pantakip ng switch ng ilaw (haha!). Yun ang gagamitin ko sa pag fabricate ng switch plate. Wronski kesa Marr na rin siguro gagawin ko para hindi na ako magbawas ng kahoy sa cavity.

hey bart, oo better pag ganun para in the future(just in case na gusto mo ibenta) pwede pang i-restore to a conventional jaguar at di mo na kelangang magbawas sa cavity :)
btw sa wronski plate: yung sa taas ng pic yun yung chrome, sa baba yun yung temporary aluminum...binigyan ako ng 2 ni Paul e so may dalawa akong aluminum plates for future projects (parang kaya pa no?:wave:)

Mas nagagwapuhan lang kasi ako dun sa config ng plate ni Marr, parang sa Tele. Anywho, heto yung plate na ginawa ko. Pero gagawa pa uli ako ng polished chrome, hindi ako patatahimikin ng OCD ko pag hindi mirror-shine, wahaha!

Anyway, by the end of this week, nabenta ko na lahat ng gitara ko except the Strat and the Fernandes JG. Once I sell the strat, it's hunting time for a JM!

Hey, if anyone's interested in those Tokai offsets, I'd hate to say this but I don't think the prices are buyer-friendly. Ebay prices are around 37k in our currency and if you're familiar with the local store's prices for the other Tokais, they're well within that range. Sad. :(
Anyway, does anyone want an awesome Strat? Comes with straplocks. *hint hint*

sweet project...balak ko rin tong gawin dati at dahil sa post mo, na-iinspire akong gawin in the future...I like the 'ongoing project' idea and just waiting for cheap stuff to be available, no rush ba.
Since you have everything on hand, and if you aren't going for a 'showroom piece', DIY na yan :), madali na lang i-assemble yan, marami ka din matututunan. except for finishing, I'd probably source that.
alam ko na, yan ang gawin natin sa P.O.G.I. meetup, haha, assemble Paltic's jag...meron akong konting experience sa pag-assemble ng gitara at electronics :)

Ayos na 4-way switch mod ko. I cut and filed some metal from the switch's flange instead so it fits without removing any wood from the body. :)
Nice..angbilis!:) can you tell us about it., parang kay johnny marr ba yung switching?
Salamat. Hindi ko alam kung paano switching ni J.Marr eh. Tsaka yung rhythm circuit n'ya iba, di ba? Bale from left to right (left being closest to the neck):
Heto yung loob. Ayokong mag-alis ng kahoy, pero hindi ko rin gaanong gusto yung naka angle yung switch para huwag magalaw yung kahoy. Kaya yung switch ang tinanggalan ko ng bakal. :-D

b.) the neck - Mexican h.) telecaster switch and mustang bridge(common mod for jag, can't afford the mastery lol!)
Hindi ka kaya magkaproblema dito, p're? 9.5 radius ng Mexican neck, 7.25 naman ang sa Mustang bridge. So, mas mataas ang action ng mga gitnang strings ( D & G strings). Hindi pa naman adjustable ang saddle height ng Mustang bridge kaya hindi mo maisusunod sa flatter radius ng neck, not unless maglagay ka ng shims sa ilalim ng saddles.

If I may butt in, kahit magkaiba yung radius ng neck at nung bridge sir, pwede niyo habulin yung radius ng bridge pagdating sa frets. Kumbaga, kung 9.5 ang radius ng mexican neck, pwede niyo ipatira sa luthier yung radius ng frets mismo para yung frets niya ang 7.25. Kahit papano magmamatch yun sa bridge at magiging even yung action niya mula low E hangang high e. Kailangan nga lang ng medyo tall na frets para hindi masyadong mababa sa gilid.

Or, buy a Jaguar bridge or a modified Mustang bridge so that the saddles are adjustable.

Again, just so everyone knows, AVRI parts fit in perfectly. The screw holes might be off a bit but more or less, you'll get a good fit and hindi noticeable yung tilt ng screw from the front. It's really subtle too.

This is the first time Fender has issued a “Jazzmaster” that actually pretty much looks, plays and sounds “LIKE” a Jazzmaster for anywhere near this price. This guitar has things I love and things I like, but pretty much nothing that I don’t like, which is pretty cool.

@indieclock I own a vintage 1963 Jazzy, a CIJ and a Lee Ranaldo Signature, and this Squier is by no means subpar compared to any of them (the lack of features, like the missing trem-lock, is perhaps a given at this price point). It has its own vibe of course, but overall I am amazed by the quality of this instrument!

Ayaw mo mag MIJ? I think it'd be easier given na you only have to swap out the pickups. Or maybe the bridge if yr picky. Malamang yun gagawin ko. :3
I saw that on OSG! I'd actually want one but the reverse headstock throws me off. Mas maganda siguro if 3x3 nilagay nila but that's their spin on it.
OH OH OH, I REALLY REALLY WANT THAT NOKO JAGMASTER FROM JAPAN!

Let's just say malaki ang patong. Anyway, the hardware looks nice but the knobs look mismatched. The neck feels really good but it didn't feel like the usual Jaguar necks I'm used to. Pickups were humbuckers, obv but they were pretty bright sounding. Neck pickup was round and chunky and the bridge pickup sounded great with distortion. Not what I'm used to since it had a different voice compared to other Jaguars. It was alright but I couldn't justify the price tag.

Either the owner doesn't know better or the person really just paid a lot to have it brought in. Either way, it's not worth that much money. At all. Mas mura pa nga if you order from abroad e.
The Purple Sparkle Mascis is weird. It has a TOM pero the neck is 7.25".

By order of purchase: #1 Fender Jaguar ('99) - Crafted in Japan (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/BTTWWYBGkKGrHgoH-CUEjlLlvzuyBKHtZrZ_3.jpg)
#2 Squier Super Sonic - Vista Series('97) - Crafted in Japan (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/BwhKWRw2kKGrHqQOKkEwSdJlOBMJTc5MZO_12.jpg)
#3 Fender Toronado GT HH ('05) - Made in Korea (http://i687.photobucket.com/albums/vv233/paltic/geetarz/IMG00173-20100814-1228.jpg)
I really love the finish on the Japanese necks. The Jaguar was restored with the classic upper control assembly because I bought it with a modified toggle switch(hence bought it cheaper) on the upper horn area. I had it restored through Guitar Hospital(Sir Arie). It has that more feminine tone and produces some weird noises and feedback probably due to these single coils on it. I love using this on the cleaner and softer sounds and is aesthetically the prettiest among the 3 guitars. It's good for the delay/reverb-y sounds(shugeeezzzzing). The Super Sonic has that unique & attractive blue sparkle finish and it looks very Japanese with this finish(the finish is somewhat similar to Flea's Modulus Bass IMHO). The body also feels and looks smaller. Many believed that it is just a reverse version of a jag/jazzy body but it's not. It has that natural heavy tone having these stock humbuckers(SD Designed - I think it's made in South Korea). It's also thick and blends well with distortion. I love using this for garage/post-hardcore stuff. The Toronado(d' metulz guitar) has surprisingly the best tone for me because of the stock Seymour Duncan pickups('59 in the neck and Pearly Gates at the bridge). This guitar is closest to the Gibson tone. Its sound is ideal for heavier power chord riffing and shredding stuff. It is also literally the heaviest among the three in terms of weight due to the mahogany body(that's in my opinion). I'm so tempted to modify the guitar because I'm not that contented with the neck's finish and the abalone inlays suck(looks a cheapskate with this) The Korean construction is also okay but the materials and components used look really cheap. The Super Sonic and the Toronado's discontinued.
Now the tricky part: How I got these? No I didn't get these for free :-D....keywords: credit card, ebay, paypal, manilaforwarders, stack of cold cash with blood, timing & patience

Rumor has it that the Super-Sonic was inspired by that photo of Jimi Hendrix playing an upside down Jazzmaster.

sir, why was the E string (and by the looks of it, some of the strings too) on this pic of your jm isn't seated on their saddles? or is it only the angle of the photo, strings are slacked? just curious. :)

I really, really want to try those Bacchus Jazzmasters. Swap out the neck and have the electronics upgraded and I'll be fine! Kevin Shields' first offset was an Ibanez Jazzmaster copy, this should work for me. Lol.

Do you realize they're cheaper than MIJ Jazzies, you can get them brand new, they seem to pass Japan's QC, they're locally made AND they have a full rhythm circuit? I sure hope they have allparts or WD drop-ins. I'm willing to pay the cost of shipping. I just want one. Badly. Dati I wanted a crap guitar I could customize to be mine. Now I want a good guitar I can make even better and be mine.

Ishibashi anyone? review and recommendations?

I've never tried doing any transaction directly from Japan but I learned about a year ago that there's a Manila Forwarders office in there. Anyone tried this?

Pag sweldo ko, ubusan ng lahi! Also, I got pictures of the Bacchus and the Classic Player JM (which is closest to the Mascis in terms of specs) and I lined them up at the pickups. The CP is slightly longer at the butt end of the guitar BUT tremolo arm placement is vintage-spec. I'm checking the pictures to see if AVRI/CP parts are a drop-in replacement.

There seems to be two versions of Bacchus JMs, the BJM/680G/R that Francis linked to, which is the cheaper of the two; and the BJM 68-E (the black one a page back) which is closer to the price of a new mij/cij

Hey thanks RJ....aesthetically, I really like the black one. But if the price is closer to a Fender than why not go for the real Mascis

Guys, where did you see na gawa sa Pinas yung Bacchus? any links? I have a feeling baka nagkatypo or baka yung wood lang ang ineexport natin..kasi kung may planta diyan ng mga for export japan..dapat may BUZZ yan...or nafefeature sa mga tv shows "finoy Prayd" shows...I tried googling Bacchus made in the Philippines..parang wala naman nilalabas..
I think Philippine Mahogany is Tanguile yata..pero not the same as US species
Philippine Mahogany is a term that refers to seven different species of wood from the Philippines. Tanguile, as well as luan (red or white) and Almon, et al, are all referred to as Philippine Mahogany. However, Philippine Mahogany isn't really a mahogany like the American or African species. So yes, tanguile is the same as Philippine Mahogany. Which doesn't have the same working properties as true mahogany. It is more stringy and frays or splinters when crosscut. It's difficult to finish without filling and it's figure is somewhat bland when compared to real mahogany. Also, the "seven" woods of the philippine family are not particularly stable when exposed to changes in humidity.

Frank Deimel has built custom guitars for Lee Ranaldo, among others, and his new Firestar model features an American red alder body, Curtis Novak and Deimel pickups, a Duesenberg tremolo, and a Mastery M1 bridge.

I just remembered that my best friend is Japanese and lives up in Japan. Since the other thread is making us look like a bunch of assholes, we might as well make legit (bulk) orders. Instead of getting a Squier Mascis, think we should get these instead? Real talk. I'd rather get a Bacchus than a Squier Mascis.

It could've been good to make a hardtail Squier JM. Hell, I wouldn't mind a Jaguar version too even if I think it would be redundant considering the Jagmaster is there. All I'm saying is that Strat jack is ugly as butt.

How do you guys honestly feel about buzzstops? I like how they look cosmetically but does it keep the strings from jumping out of their saddles? Will I have to file the slots deeper or change saddles altogether?

it's a good upgrade, you don't need to file your saddles for them strings not to jump, the break angle is enough to keep them in place..though the trem feels a bit stiff but i don't use it that much.
even without the buzzstop, a good set-up within a good guitar will keep the strings in place.

Think My Bloody Valentine or Sonic Youth-type tremolo abuse. What do I have to do that doesn't involve a tuneomatic (radius issue) or a Mastery?

Post by: gandydancer123 on March 31, 2012, 02:23:41 PM
heavy gauge strings and a good set-up or a mustang bridge, otherwise get a mastery
the buzzstop is more cheaper and i think you'll get the hang of the feel with it installed.
i still wish my JM was white, haha..can't have 'em all anyway.
abang ka sa ishibashi, minsan may sumusulpot na mura talaga..add shipping and custom duties, sulit na rin yung buy mo

just scout the site, yung used nila eh papasa pa na brand new dito satin..i got mine still shiny and hairline scratches lang visible.

you made it bart!.....can we see the guitar (the whole of it) with this upgrade? how did you do it? is this permanent? :-D niiiiice!
Sanded the anodized black rollers with 1200 grit wet paper. Used a fine steel brush (the one used for cleaning guns) to get in between the grooves. 2 coats of primer, 3 thin coats of white, 2 coats of clear poly. Baked in an oven-toaster at 300 degrees for 15 min. It looked OK but didn't quite like it. So I wet-sanded it until it was down to the brass. I intentionally left the white paint between the grooves.
Not looking good on our end. OSG is calling it out na. :))

Gotta get in on this thread! :)
Here's my MIJ Lyle 1802T, it's an Epiphone ET-270 copy. One of the Japanese lawsuit guitars circa 1970-1980 under the Matsuoko companies (i.e. Aria, Univox). It was rescued from a pawnshop. Haha!

Wasn't Lyle also affiliated with Greco by way of the Matsumoku plant?
Hey Sir Francis! I'm not really sure about much of Lyle guitars' history, but that's new info. I read that this guitar was supposedly a diversion made by the company during the lawsuit era by using Epiphone's body format, but Fender's headstock. It "worked" for such a minimal amount of time, but became a double whammy for them. I'm currently searching for another 1802T with the black outline of the Lyle brand. And a Tele. Haha!

It still looks like a Teisco overrun. I like the ORM-1 tho but nakukulangan ako sa features. It looks cool in black tho.
Also, anyone tried writing/recording hardcore/punk with offsets on this forum apart from Paengkee? We just started new material. I'm doing my parts with the Fernandes offset!

Give me a month or so (or buy my Strat) so THIS could happen:
I've owned a Mosrite and let it go for another guitar that I fell in love with but I think I'm ready to part with one guitar and bass that I don't use just so I could get another one. Guys, behold my next project. Just a simple mod for the Mosrite I hope to get.
Perfect guitar, IMO. Lagyan ko lang yung Mosrite ng AVRI Jazzmaster trem and maybe install 1meg pots.
Also, the guitar in the picture isn't a full Mosrite. I think it's a Univox with a Mosrite neck.

That's the plan! Refinish the Mosrite to olympic white but keep the headstock black then have someone re-do the neck with blocks and binding. I already love the vintage Mosrite frets so all the changes I want are cosmetic apart from getting 1meg pots for extra sparkle and the JM trem for the shoegazing. My last Mosrite tended to sound a bit warm to my ears out of my usually trebly amp.

Greco's a good brand imho. what's cool about that guitar is that it has earned its own reputation (seen on vids and magazines)...cool
That guitar has been through hell and back and I hope to restore it to its former glory. It survived a car accident where my best friend was walking down the street with it and he got hit head-on by a multicab. Another time, he guitar-spinned it and the weight broke the strap and it flew into another friend's face. Good times.

Reposted from OSG:
This guitar has quite a history with me and my old band. I'd lend it to my old band's guitar player and all sorts of horrible stuff would happen. Dude got hit head-on by a jeep (those [gooey brown stuff] public transport vehicles in the Philippines). One time he used it to fend off attackers, the damn thing is heavy. Another time, he guitar spun the thing and the strap broke (the fabric by the strap peg), launching the thing into an unlucky audience member's face. Eventually, I gave up on guitar since I started doing electronic music at the time. I ended up selling it to a friend. Years later, I started a band with the guy I sold it to and he accidentally broke it after going Thurston during his other band's set. He sent it to a repair shop and it ended up sitting there for months. Eventually, I had enough and offered to buy it back from him.
(http://i41.tinypic.com/28akodz.jpg)
Tl;dr Sold it to friend. Bought it back. Guitar hurts people a lot.
I'm a happy camper. Will mod the [gooey brown stuff] out of this. How tho? I was something something like an ADH Jazz-stang or Bilinda Butcher's Mustang. What do I need tho? I want to have this refinished in midnight wine (sparkle if possible) and put a JM trem on it + 1 meg pots. How did you guys do the mods on yours?
The ADH Jazz-stang seems to be a really cool idea but what if I ended up keeping the short-scale neck? Would it look too cramped even if I have the bridge pickup moved a bit further?

Alkaline Trio uses a Fender Custom Shop Jaguar with very similar specs and it's also in seafoam green. Personally, I'd prefer to use the Blacktop Jaguar 90 if it had to be something hardtail and without the rhythm circuit.

Siguro light relicing na lang. It's already relic-ed as/is. Maybe something a bit more crackwhore-ey. I'ma ask my friends to help me with pictures pag tapos na ang project! Selling one of my basses tomorrow to fund this! I can't wait!

Here's the Premier Guitar review on the Fender Johnny Marr Jaguar. Short scaled with Bare Knuckle pickups.

The Marr sig is really pretty 'no? If I had to pick two of Fender's newer guitars, it would be two Jaguars. The Marr signature in white and a black thinline Jaguar. That thing is sex with the body binding.

Yeah I like the design on the Johnny Marr model. Shortscaled and easy to do those broken chords specially if you have short fingers. I could imagine playing those complicated Smith chords on this.

Best marketing move? When Marr used the guitar to play This Charming Man. Brbdying.

The short scare really makes sense for Johnny Marr since he's a short person with small fingers. Playing the Jaguar is like playing on a small Jazz Bass he he he....

Wag yun. Try ordering bodies na lang from abroad. May umaalok sakin ng Jazzblaster for real cheap. Kung may pera lang ako for shipping, matagal na akong kumagat. Maganda pa yung proportions. Most are pretty accurate. They don't have to be but those kits posted on Facebook just look atrocious. :|
Sali ka ng Offsetguitars.com! Maraming magandang deals dun. Nice community pa.

sa ishibashi iemail mo sila (parang sa Guitar Center) tas issend nila mga mas complete set of pictures for your inspection(depends sa mga requests mo pa re: specs and condition), dapat nakikipagcommunicate ka din sa handler ng account mo sa shipping service para yung office nila magiging temporary address mo. dapat may paypal account ka at credit card para dun ka na nkakapagbayad sa mga online orders mo

Awesome, bro. REPRESENT! I take that this is a local or regional Seattle reality TV, or is it a YouTube exclusive? So what amp did you plug it into?
It's something that the guitar store puts up on their youtube channel to attract business. They're great folks too. They've got vintage Gibby Les Pauls that sell for $25,000 and are kept in a glass display. One of their guitars that I've been lusting over is a baby blue Jazzmaster with the paint all chipped off selling for $7,500. I wouldn't even want to think of touching it just in case I break it. If you check the photos in the emeraldcityguitars.com website, the people that drop by would include folks like Lemmy, John Mayer, etc are documented with the photos they take with the staff.
It's nice to know that I can trust in the work of their tech, Eric. He's got great skill and knowledge with history on these pieces of hardware.
Look at his thoughts on those handsome Jaguars at the :50 mark in the video below.

Still waiting for an email notice from Sweetwater Music for when their Mascis model comes back in stock. May have to pull the trigger as soon as I receive it.
I've gotten tired of going back to Guitar Center to see if they've got it on display. GAS struck again after seeing youtube clips from folks who've already got theirs and are having a blast playing them.
It didn't help either that I got to see Radiohead a couple of weeks ago and caught a glimpse of Thom Yorke's oly white jazzmaster.

I actually think flamed tops are ugly on offsets. I dunno, this guitar's supposed to be ugly. I mean look at that thing. :| Body shape is offset but feels a bit more "off" than offset. It's got humbuckers and a stoptail but... I want to play thrashcore on that thing. I like it in a Scott Ian sort of way. If I didn't already want that LTD South of Heaven guitar, I'd like this for metal.

Post by: boybangs on April 27, 2012, 11:23:34 AM
Yep. Maybe the basis of the build. Does it count as an offset?
If you think about it, it DOES kind of have that non-reverse Firebird vibe. Just... metally. When it comes to offsets for metal bands, I'm still partial to ESP/LTD for the Viper.

teh kurtz mustang....bro ininquire ko na kay freedomtom ito dati(mga 2009-2010 pa) kaso nabenta na daw. most of the time hindi updated yang mga pics at posts niya. may fb page siya. kahit yung Fresher Mercury(Japanese Mustang copy @ 18k) niya ininqire ko kaso nabenta na rin daw...so pm mo lang siya or contact sa numbers. So far sa mga nakita ko sa pics mukhang legit naman mga benta niya although karamihan ng feedback sa kaniya dito e negative. wala namang Mustang na bababa sa $700 sa ebay ngayon so sa tingin ko reasonble yung price lalo't nandito na sa Pinas e kaya wala ng shipping charges etc. Pero pag napkiusapan mo ng mas mababa e di okay di ba?

All true. I've tried some Teiscos and Guyatones from around that time and they're rock solid, even without truss rods.

One person I've also seen recently with a nice Jazzmaster would be Mary Timony (you'd remember her if you knew the band Helium in the 90s). Her vocals and guitarwork really complement Carrie Brownstein's parts in Wild Flag.
While going through some photos, I found one of Anthony Gonzalez of M83 from the Saturdays=Youth tour about 3 years ago. I'm not sure if he uses a different set of offsets for the Hurry Up, We're Dreaming tour. During the show that I saw them for the recent one, I was on Morgan Kibby's side of the stage, so I wasn't able to get a good look.

I'm not sure if this was posted before -- Fender Japan Limited Spiderman Mustang (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v118/turquoisemoleeater/guitars/FenderMustangMGSpiderMan.jpg)
When I saw it at Ishibashi late last year, I thought it was a joke. Turns out it was launched just the week before I arrived in town. Talk about alternative punk... this is the perfect guitar to play a Ramones Spiderman cover :)

To also add to that line, there will be more variations for the Fender Pawn Shop Mustang when it comes to finishes apparently. I remember going through the Japanese Fender site and seeing a white paint finish (they don't even have that paint color below for the US market AFAIK), but the sunburst that they'll be offering looks badass too.

My Pawn Shop Mustang ran around $800 at Guitar Center at the end of 2011. They nowadays fetch at $900 based on research online and in catalogs. These new ones in the lineup may have prices along the $800-$900 range as well.
To add: I'm glad the newer sunburst Mustang from this line has a truss rod access hole at the headstock. The red and blue paint models don't have that built in.

hahaha..yun talaga focus ko no. wala na akong pera or budget for a new guitar hanggang appreciation muna ako dito sa mga bagong models!
I have plans. Sana he can wait two months. Hell, SANA WALANG MAUNA. I messaged him about it na, talking about shipping and how to pay. Dammit, bakit kung kelan in between jobs dumating.

Are there any St Vincent fans in the thread? Annie Clark has a nice little Harmony HV15 Bobkat that sure fits her unorthodox shredding and riffing style. Also to note, her uncle is the equally amazing Tuck Andress. She's also a Berklee dropout...so she knows a thing or two around the fretboard (amongst many other musical instruments). I'd recommend her album Strange Mercy for a sample of what she could do on guitar. Extra indie rock pogi points that the record was released under the 4AD label.

More St Vincent pimping. Check out what that badass guitar tone is like as well as that skronk reminiscent of what Adrian Belew or Robert Fripp would do with their guitars.

Annie Clark(St. Vincent) is a favorite and has been featured in the POGI fb page for a couple of times(pics and vids-4AD session din). I'm also a big fan of her..that tone in her vid is like Jack White's playing with the Digitech Whammy pedal

Tried all of their offsets. My favorite was the Jagmaster with p90s. It was my main guitar since I picked the instrument up again. Sold it recently to make room for more offsets. I liked the Mustang neck the most but the pickups sounded bad and nabwiset ako sa switching. On-off lang. The Jet King was alright but I'd rather get a real Jet King. The Jazzmaster trem on it felt awkward. The RJ offset with the switches felt dead in my hands.

Interestingly enough, my Mustang was originally sold with a gig bag, but my dad and I managed to talk the Guitar Center attendant to trade it up to a slightly used Fender hard case (since I had to fly it out of town). It was a standard and that managed to fit the guitar. Not sure if the same is true for your Jazzmasters or your Jaguars though.

I have a gig bag made by bumbum and one by Butch Dormitorio. They're almost the similar in design but there's something more special about the one made by Butch Dormitorio, craftmaship and material wise. Both work well for my Jazzmaster but I would recommend go for Mang Butch. :)

That's what I thought. It's the protruding horn and the deep heel that would be the major issue for those cases, yeah? You think the issue is more pronounced for something like a Jaguarita?

If you think about it, it DOES kind of have that non-reverse Firebird vibe. Just... metally. When it comes to offsets for metal bands, I'm still partial to ESP/LTD for the Viper.
Yung venue will depend na lang on the confirmed attendees. :)

Indy Custom Guitar's selling Telemasters on the cheaps!
This is most likely the route that I'll take. I actually called an online store here today that supposedly has them for sale. They said the blonde one won't be re-stocked 'til a month or two. I'm not holding my breath. There's a black/tort on ebay. But I never quite liked black guitars. I'll be patient and wait for the blonde to pop up on either craigslist, ebay or in one of the forums. May store kang alam na in stock ang blonde?

Dude, these are the 2012 VMs. Confirmed na daw by Fender representatives pero hindi pa full-on ang marketing kasi pinapadaan sa word-of-mouth like they did with the Squier Mascis. I'm inclined to think these are legit.
I'm going to make a parts Jag with a Japanese neck, some Lollars and TORT!
It won't hurt Fender sales because it's in an uncharted price point that only the Mascis seems to be in for offsets.

Very bright and trebly, with very short sustain. There are so many tone combinations with the Jaguar switching system but generally, it's a very bright sounding guitar. I can say it's growly in an upper mid, single coil kind of way.
I think these should be in the ballpark of $350 street price if the pricing on the Squier Mascis is any clue.

The Squier Mascis is $399 street ($599 MSRP) so I don't really understand why these will be priced any lower, they're basically the same guitar. But if these do go lower than $399 street, I'm not complaining...I'm tempted to get JM/Jag siblings when these come out :)

Ah talaga...never saw it lower than $399 (sort of remember one site selling it for $379)...guess they raised prices fast, probably bec of the initial demand. They did the same with the Blacktop line, which was initially offered at $450.

Fender raised prices twice for all of their products, sadly.

NGD!!!...well not exactly new
I got this battered & bruised(repainted black) Tomson Mustang from a trade with my long overdue Ipod Video.
Now why a Tomson Mustang?...bands like Juan Pablo Dream, Identikit and even Diego Mapa used to play one. I even still have a pending project guitar at hand - but I also have this fickle obsession with the Mustang form. I've never had one before. Well at least I didn't have to pay expensively for this and got it from a trade. (justifying now)
I got this from Ryan Villena who happens to be the former drummer/founding member of Tungaw and Narda(indie bands that I've adored in the late 90's and early 2000. Tungaw's a great band...Narda's Formika & Discotillion were awesome Pinoy indie albums). He also used to play keyboards for Brownman Revival and now is a guitarist for Techy Romantics. According to him, this guitar used to be his backup guitar in gigs. Now that's the story from the previous owner. I also traced another story that there was this certain Tomson Mustang from Jugs Jugueta (Itchyworms) that was sold to a fellow forumite then repainted the guitar "black". He later sold this guitar in Sulit.com. Well I feel that this is the same guitar. So there you go...the guitar has at least has a certain rockstar history and value.
The guitar's neck feels great and I even prefer this over my Toronado. The bridge looks very alien to me and the neck pickup needs to be rewired. I'm also thinking of the best possible mod I can do to this guitar (thinking of repainting this in seafoam green or shell pink)

sure as soon as I do the internal operation on this thing. mejo busy pa sa work at wala pang budget pampaayos. ok pa kasi, bago at kumpleto mga strings niya e kaya di ko pa ineexplore. sabi ko nga "alien" pa rin sa kin yung bridge nito. kahit nga pagpalit ng strings iniisip ko kung pano tatanggalin yung cover. quite unique for a Mustang copy.
go get one if you can find something this cheap. pwedeng panangga sa rambol at sa kuyog (di ka manghihinayang) :-D

DAMMIT. I DIDNT KNOW THEY LOOKED THAT NICE. How's the feel?
It's a nice little banger, haha! OK, here's my .02 cents ; for $189, I wasn't really expecting much. Being the tinkerer that I am, I went straight under the hood. Pots are small, as per the usual for SE Asian-made guitars. Easily replaceable. Except the routing of the control cavity is small, large enough only for the pots that it came with. The lipstick neck pickup is interesting. Very warm tone. The bridge pickup is hotter that any of my tele bridge. Pretty interesting middle position. Neck isn't bad. After filing the fret ends, setting to a comfortable action, and applying some moisturizing lemon oil on the fretboard, it actually played and felt nice. The neck pocket routing is something to be desired for, though. Looks like mine was made by a monkey with a chisel, haha! Thank goodness for the 22nd fret overhang and the pickguard for hiding that abomination. Haha! I hope that it really is solid basswood, as they claimed, underneath that thick poly finish and not MDF. But I'm pretty happy with it. It'll be a nice slide guitar. Just don't expect too much from a cheap guitar.

So parang pagbebenta ng lupa sa mga kamag-anak, I would like to break the news first to my P.O.G.I. brothers. PM me if you're interested in any of my guitars. I already have a price in mind. No lowballers, no trades please :-D I need cash...

Nice offset family Nat! I'm sure di ka mahihirapan mag hanap ng new home for them. =)
I'm not rushing on selling them Rob. I just want to get some interesting offers from fans of these guitars. I've been seeing a lot of overpriced Jaguars in the Classifieds. E mas common pa nga ang Jaguars sa Toronado or Super-Sonic sa forums natin. So dapat ma-convince ako sa offers. Kung wala, okay lang din naman :-D

May mga nagiinquire sa kin last year kaso tinurn down ko. This week open akong ibenta wag lang akong babaratin kasi alam ko value ng mga to ngayon.

Hey GASmasters,
FINALLY sold the Tomson Mustang for Rockstars! :) and so the colorful journey and history of this guitar continues...
Last night I was playing the Mustang and I got some bright sounding Johnny Marr tones straight from my VOX. I almost held back on selling this. Anyway...
(http://farm5.staticflickr.com/4029/4665359638_fcfb8a1bd6_z.jpg) I sold the guitar to Mr. Iman "Prank Sinatra" Leonardo - an indie rocker(with cred), a vintage guitar collector and a very sensible/nice fellow. Like on the movie High Fidelity, the elitists usually sell their records to the same genuinely cool guys. I'm very happy to sell this guitar to him. Anyway in Iman's case, with 250+ guitars on his sleeves, he's just buying this for a friend in Cebu. Hey Francis, I believe you know Iman?
Check out this cool video showcasing some pieces from his rare collection:
On other news: I've RETRACED the selling of my Super-Sonic and Toronado!!! yessss! I was a bit inspired on keeping these rare babies through my little talk with Iman. Moving forward, I'll now be focusing on my custom Jaguar project in the next couple of days.
Support Prank Sinatra guys :) OLRYT!

I have three guitars from Iman. All of them are amazing. Looks like I'll never be able to resell any of them because they're really suited to specific tastes but yeah. I love them. Really cool guy. Sa kanya napunta ang Mosrite ko.

Susunod, I'm buying plates from Paul. I want to convert the Jazzblaster to a full-scale Jagblaster. I saw how HNB did the Cobain Jazzy, I think I might want to do that too. HNB is really really really nice to talk to. Very kind/accommodating guy.

Yep. JAC. I'm going to use a Matsumoku Strat neck from '71. Next year, baka papagawa ako ng all-aluminum EGC neck for it if plans work out.
what's the scale for the body? i mean if you're going short scale..i think the intonation will be off if you're gonna slap a neck from a 25.5" guitar to a 24" right?

Oh no, this is a full scale body. It's a heavily modded MIM Jazzmaster so it's 25.5". Besides, if I wanted to go shortscale, I could always have a conversion neck made so I don't have to have the bridge repositioned. Took that into account. I have a Mustang for my shortscale needs.

TOMs are fairly common to Jags and JMs. The Classic Player line, Toronado, Squier JM JM, etc all sport Adjusto-matic bridges stock, which is Fender's version of the Tune-o-matic (and according to the internet, are exactly the same). A lot of JM and Jag users also use TOMs. I think I read somewhere that Sonic Youth used TOMs before switching to Mastery Bridges.

Im really a lazy guy when it comes to necks. I prefer to buy something that's already finished with tuners, etc. Before, the best way to get cheap necks for a custom guitar is by buying these cheap Fender Aerodyne Strat necks...but sellers in Ebay have realized this trend

If you have money to burn, there's always Warmoth. Or there are good deals for used Warmoth necks.

^ F*ck hassle pag yung 'regular' - taga ka sa tax/customs niyan!!! I've learned that the hard way.. way way before from ordering indie CDs, Nike SBs to a guitar. Buti kong CDs sa QC Post Office lang usually. Sa Pasay dati, kinailangan kong bayaran yung nagrerelease ng something like 1.5k(lowest na to) kesa magbayad ng something higher based on their so-called "computation". Malas talaga pag sa Bureau of Customs-Pasay napunta. Dito pinapadala pag mahal yung items. Mas maraming buwaya dun. Kaya from there I learned my lesson na magpa-door to door delivery na lang(Manilaforwarders). Iwas hassle sa "hidden fees", secured at delivered conveniently to your home. I've never tried Johnny Air pa pero kaya yan ng 2 weeks depende kung by plane or ship. Siyempre mas matagal pag ship

All I said was I won it from a contest, and yung invoice niya rin ay 10$ lang for both the items. yung 40 pesos fee lang nabayaran ko.

^Standard naman yang 3 weeks na yan parang nagorder ka lang ng CD sa amazon or ebay tas diretso sa address sa Pilipinas. Standard din na pinapadala talaga directly sa post office. Walang singil naman pag small items. At nachcheck nila kaagad yun
As for sa RJ guitar, parang embossed ata siya on top of the clear coat. Isama na yan pag-scrape pag magpapa-repaint
