LIght years better. If I could buy the CP jazzmaster near me, it owuld be my number one forever adn ever. it is bar none, the best guitar i have ever played. It would make my telecater so jealous.

So the next question, is why don't they make the Classic Players with matching headstocks

I agree here. The new jags/jazzys have really boring colors and stuff. I want a MIM jazzy or jag with matching and bound/block for 1K damnit...

i think its because they just started the line and they havent had enough time to really run with it...

in a way i think that this year was a concept year to see how well the idea would take off

maybe next year theryll be more colors and options.

Could be -- I hope so. I have played Classic Players both Jaguar and Jazzmaster and enjoyed both of them. I also think Fender probably wants to keep the matching headstock rare/desirable so they don't want to just slap it on every guitar they make.

i know...the LPB blue with matching headstock was what was cool about that jag earlier today

I know to round out my dream guitar collection I want a Jag with single coils (my Jag has humbuckers) and a Jazzmaster, in Candy Apple Red and Lake Placid Blue, with matching headstocks. That would be so ridiculously awesome.

Because matching headstocks are stupid?

it got here on Christmas eve but there haven't been much clear/non raining days so i got what i could.

I may retake them if a sunny day makes a difference. Also no video demo yet unless you all want to hear it through a Marshall MG amp. I'd prefer to put it through the valvestate which is at brambleperro's house.

Overall I'm very happy with it, the sound is amazing and I don't think I've played a more comfortable guitar.
