The "Pearl" and regular Jazzmaster models from them lack the cheesy, forced visual appeal of that one, which is nice.

Image

...Sorta pointless to me with the P90s and lack of trem anyway... But I think of all of them, this guitar carries that look best...

Image

But THIS is really cool in every way...

I want those chrome soapbar P-90s, but otherwise that thing suffers from the usual clear guitar wankiness.

lol @ the stratgina on guitar 2 in Jager's post

I like the little bits of pickguard to prevent that '80s Tronism that most lucite guitars suffer from.

So much mojo talk.

Expensive guitars nonetheless.

Mojo talk is only as good as the shit mic they held up to a little amp in a noisy room to show the difference.

I would definitely want to hear it with my own ears though.

I gotta say I think the lights are pretty cool. That's not the guitarist in me talking, it's the little kid in me who would point at the stage and go "whoa" if I saw someone using it.

I played on a Perspex Jaguar copy yonks ago, I believe made by Aria Pro or something. Like Fran says it was spine-bendingly heavy.

Well it had humbuckers in it and they sounded pretty wooly, but what do you expect?

It was translucent blue with no pickguard. Fran would have loved it.

If I still cared about the bass, a striped thing with an EB0 pickup without having to buy an EB0, and a Jazz pickup for when I got tired of it would still be like, the best thing that could happen.

Lol. They had a perspex BC Rich thing in our local shop, it weighed more than a cast iron bath. What with the shape it was a serious lethal weapon.
