Considering Vista Jagmasters get listed at $500+ on eBay...
I so wish I would have grabbed one when they were being blown out at $299 on Fender friday years ago.

I still have to properly go through the Reissues and find what's what, so they're not really included yet, but, this is the spreadsheet I've pulled together so far for specs... I recognize that I have the ABC widths mixed with C "shape" for necks... and I'll be probably adding info on tuners, neck cuts, slab vs. vaneer fretboards, and the small detail changes in the 60s with pickups, decals and the like. (also have to translate the Johnny Marr features into the spreadsheet notes)

Great work so far!

Just so you know, the Modern Player specs sheet is wrong. It clearly has 22 frets.

Second, I think you should change the headstock column to matching, black, or natural to differentiate between those with matching headstocks and those with mismatched headstocks.

Good eye.
Yeah, I was thinking about the headstock color thing while setting up the sheet... but wasn't sure whether to add in that data as a separate column, or change the column to say something like Painted Headstock and have No, Matching, Black or the like... with the caveat that (AFAIK) no 3TS finishes have painted heads.

I demand proof, or all this is just internet jibber-jabber. Because I think you're wrong, see.

ITT: overstatement. The trem units weren't quite so beefy, is all.

Thomas wrote:All of the Jaguars I've bought secondhand played like crap cos at the time the guitars weren't as popular and most folk that had them couldn't set them up properly (esp the trem). I reckon that's a reason a lot of people used to think they weren't great guitars. That meant they were cheap and could be brought up to speed in about half an hour.

The japanese offsets from the 90s were great.
Ah, the good old days, when you could score one on ebay for £280. :cry:
