NGD: Teh Kurtz in Candy Apple Green

taylornutt · Post by **taylornutt** » Mon Oct 07, 2013 3:28 am

I traded HNB for his awesomely refinished Jag-stang. I have only gotten to play it a little so far but I like the Super Distortion in the Bridge. I am still getting used to the switching on this one. The neck is lightly sanded and plays really nice.

Here are some pics:

I have had the poster for a long time. I didn't buy it just for the Jag-stang. But I have a wall hanger next to it so I thought it would be the perfect place.

I like the word "KURT", as if somebody buying that poster wouldn't know.

It's like having the word JESUS under a picture of Jesus. Almost literally for teenage Nirvana fans, I guess.

I helped another shorscaler a while back buy a lefty Fiesta Red Jag-stang off my local CL. Unfortunately with it being a lefty, I really couldn't play it.

This Jag-stang was originally Fiesta Red but HNB refin it in this awesome green. He also told me the body is made of alder, so it must be one of the reissue Jag-stangs. I think he told me the neck is off another Jag-stang.

I fell in love with the slab body on my Bronco, so this guitar has a similar feel to it.

I love that. Fender needs to start making some guitars in these colors. You rarely see them as a standard color option.

Is your Jaguar a refin?

Nah it's original, but it's not mine.

It was a customers of mine, I did offer to buy it off him though... but he hand selected it in Japan. No Chance !!!

Awesome colour. I've never played a jag stang, but hear others rave about the neck, what's so good about it?

It's just a terrific neck profile.

Super skinny!

The 7.5" radius and real glossy finish help too, personal preference though.

I think its 7.25

I had the shirt and poster when I was 17

Amazing finish

That's my old Jag-Stang body. It was Fiesta Red.

Cool. I saw the pictures of the body before HNB stripped it.

I love to know the background of my guitars.
