Love it.
How often do you play it? I think I would find it pretty hard to buy a vintage guitar and not play it all the time.

I used to play it constantly when I was younger but since the value has picked up on them it spends more time in its case. Maybe sees the light of day once a month or so.

I got to the point where I was enjoying my CIJ Jag more and being able experiment with different parts and pickups was fun for me, and suited the music I was playing. But I think I'll definitely come back round to this again and play it more often. It's awesome !!! I'm in a Nels Cline phase so .... it'd be rude not to.

In some ways, I kinda feel guilty that I don't play out anymore, and I'm not worthy of such an instrument.

Irony is, even if I did I probably still wouldn't take this. Double lol.

Some of my shit

I think if I really put my mind to it, I could take a blurrier picture.

Better.

Is that a gold anod guard with the black Jazzy pups? Looks good.

What's with the sig too? Some select characters there....

Yeah that's an old '59 body I picked up. I am LDC from back in the day. I thought about registering the name in my sig, but figured it would never get approved.

I remember you !!

Nice guitars, especially like that Jazzmaster, it's really lovely and different too.

Thanks. Your guitar is pretty much the gold standard for Jazzmasters on the board though.

Mine came with the '59 body and anodized guard that I bought on eBay. The covers aren't vintage. I've seen similar ones all over eBay.

Here is a picture of my Larrivee L-03R after I fitted a Fishman Rare Earth Humbucker. The pickup sounds great and hasn't affected the natural sound of the guitar, I'm really chuffed with this little piece of kit.

Yeah. That's me.

It's cool your posting again.

My tastes are all over the place, but I seem to lean more toward Rickenbackers and other semi-hollowbodies. I do have a '69 Competition Orange Mustang, but here are my other non-Fender guitars:













And the 12-strings:

Those guitars above are:

• 2007 Gibson Custom Shop Non-Reverse Firebird
  1954 Harmony Stratotone
  2002 Rickenbacker 360
  1968 Standel 420C
  2011 Fano SP6
  A trio of Ricks: the 360, a 4001c64 bass, and a 1959 450 that has been through all sorts of mods
  1991 Rick 381v69/12
  1966 Guild Starfire XII

wow. those are awesome. any demos of them in action?
