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!

My friend just bought Chi's modded Jagmaster. She's really really happy with it lol. First offset niya. She's on here too pero new member, si Gravearchitecture. 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.

@everyone: salamat sa suporta..hahaha...mukhang gagawin niyong guinea pig/science project tong project ko. sige yung mga dalubhasa at may experince pwedeng tumulong at magadvice.. hahaha
