Jaguar jazz

Post by Ankhanu »

Jazz isn't a genre that the Jaguar tends to be associated with... but, as always, there's more to how you play than what you play.

Pretty atypical Jaguar toenz.

Theres something so wrong with that.

I love Joe Pass and I love Jaguars, but together :shock:

edit: In all fairness I do respect the sound the guitar produced there.

That does not compare to this.

"I've always stuck with the same basic kind of Gibson, like the model I
play now (1976), an ES175. It's the only kind of electric I've ever
played when I had a choice. I've had this one since 1963.Back in my
Synanon days, I didn't have a guitar of my own; all I had was a
solidbody rock and roll guitar that belonged to Synanon. I was playing
a gig at a local club with it when this guy named Mike Peak came in and
saw me playing jazz with a rock guitar. A few months later, on my
birthday, I came home and there was this brand new ES 175 that he had
bought for me. He was in the construction business and played a little
guitar himself and just felt that I should have the proper kind of
instrument. It's the only electric I've used since then." (Guitar
Player, April '76)

Later on Joe would have custom Epiphone and Ibanez models and also played some custom handmade arch-tops. He was very much about the sound of guitar though and not the construction. He often made the case for a laminate top guitar because he liked the way it projected.

Looks like the rhythm circuit is on... but he's also fiddling with the lead circuit volume control early on. Could just be that he doesn't know the guitar's controls :P
