Topic: Which string gauge do you prefer on your Jaguars???

I have D'Addario .10's on both my Fender CIJ Jag and my Squier VM Jag. To be honest, I prefer the feel of .10's over .11's on these guitars and I have no issues at all with the lighter gauge strings on the shortscales.

Topic: Fret Buzz on Squier VM Jaguar
Replies: 9
Views: 9511

Giving the neck more relief by adjusting the truss rod may fix the fret buzz, or it may not. There are other factors to consider first before you go messing with the truss rod. It could be a case of a couple of high frets, or perhaps the nut was cut too deeply, or it could be something as simple as ...

Congrats on getting the lefty G-400. I have a 2005 Korean-made Epi G-400 Deluxe that's one of my absolute favorite guitars to play. http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p202/Apollo3000/DSCN4678.jpg I've thought of buying another and I've looked at some of the current MIC G-400's (unfortunately Guitar ...

I've got a slighty modded Reverend Club King RT with a Bigsby. Hands down one of the best mid-priced guitars I've ever come across. Korean made, but you wouldn't know it. Flawless fit/finish and plays like a dream. I challenge you to find a better guitar for the price of one of these Reverends. http...

I have the same exact Stagg BM350 bass. They're inexpensive, but once you give them a proper setup they're actually quite good.

hmm. pat's baritone jag has sparked an interest in me for such things. sondz kool. I love the Hellcat VI. It has enough low end to function as a bass, yet can be played much like a guitar. Sounds quite lovely playing arpeggios through chorus and delay effects. I like to think of it as the perfect b...

Passive twin humbuckers on the Stagg bass. Not the best quality, but not bad. I think I paid $200 US for the bass. I must admit I don't play it as often as a I should. The Hellcat VI and the Epi Thunderbird get most of the attention.

what's the hellcat like, out of interest? The Schecter Hellcat VI is much like the Fender Bass VI, except more affordable. Korean made like most Schecters and it plays really really well. It's tuned just like a guitar 'EADGBE', but an octave lower. It's a fascinating instrument to play. 30" sc...

Don't knock 'em until you try 'em. It never ceases to amaze me how people are quick to judge an instrument based on it's looks rather than how it plays and how it sounds. I personally like Danelectros.
