Had to have it!

New Guitar Day? Obsessed with tone? 10 on the volume dial not enough? Celestion vs. Electrovoice? Cum in, feel the noize.

Had to have it!

Post by Lt. Bob »

On Reverb a company named Tone Bakery was selling blem bodies for their Jazzbird line loaded with p'ups for 250.
I offered 198 and they took it ...... lovely body actually and I see no blem at all!

And I have 5 or 6 necks sitting around so all I gotta do is bolt on an neck and BOOM! ... A GUITAR!

Good score. I am getting more and more into offsets like that as I get older.

What is the scale length on that puppy?

Mine too, well I build for me at 25" or above but anything shorter and in the words of the immortal Frank Zappa.... my fingers got stuck.

I've recently been curious about Jags and that 24" scale but I actually don't like a 24.75" scale because of the shortness so I think I'd either hate a Jag or find it an inbteresting change ...... lol, prolly hate

My little hands like a short scale but my fat finger pads are not keen on a narrow neck.

I loved the feel of my Mustang with the 24" scale length... and I have really long fingers. It was just an interesting change.
