I seem to have forgotten to post here since my coral Super-Sonic was done.
That's five Super-Sonics, a 1971 Comp Mustang Bass, and a 1970 Comp Mustang (the shortscales).
A Whole Bunch of Guitars. Some with sparkles. Some with Pearl. Some with racing stripes.

Back Strat Jack!
I'm loving this. I wish that all my Super-Sonics had back jacks.

Fender Japan Thinline 50th yr sp Ed 3ts
I recently purchased this from Sweetwater.com. It came in a couple days and it's the most amazing newer fender model I have ever played and owned, I know it's not the traditional Fender Jaguar but for something new, especially compared to some of the guitars I see in guitar stores like the jaguar marauder or something. This is something truly unique , binding on both top and bottom of the ash body and on the fretboard, although the binding on the neck is a little shorter and I like taller neck binding, but this will do. Polyestor finish on this , never seen that on a jag i dont think, I also love the semi hollow idea, I have always loved the less Paul guitars that have bound top and back bodies and wanted a Jaguar, so this is like a combo of both ideas, and I always loved the F note cut always in guitars and now I have it all combined ,

Yes, also changed to 500k cts pots and a .033uf PIO cap. Stays in tune pretty well with the roller bridge.

I wound up using some 8mm aluminum rod to make a bushing for the roller bridge posts. Came out nicely. The Mustang bridge always seemed to move on me, especially when palm muting. It never wanted to stay in one consistent place.

I like the pearl guard, but did you use a Mustang pickguard instead of a Jag-stang pickguard? The bottom horn of the guard should be down more.

Warmoth describes that as a Jagstang guard. All the screw holes lined up 100% so I didn't think much of it. It was weeks between when I took off the old one and put that one on.....

It may be right, it just seemed off from the picture.
Is it an original Jag-stang body?

Yep, it's a '96 Jagstang.
