Hi to everyone!

I will order today my 1st Jaguar.As far as i'm very satisfied with my Classic Player Jazzmaster, i'll get a CP Jaguar in 3TS...

Will have it tomorrow...

Can't wait to get it and of course, learn a lot of you guys!

I was always fascinated by offset guitars and especially with Jags and Jazzmaster...

After i wasn't sure if i like the short scale of the Jaguar i tried the CP Jaguar Special HH of a friend of mine yesterday...

And i have to say i really really liked it!

Anyway, i'll post some pics as soon as i'll get my Jaguar!

Welcome!
To be honest I don't think the 24" scale is such a big difference to new short scale owners. I find fret gauge and radius more noticeable than scale length.
Hope you like it anyway.

Welcome aboard gypsyseven - I'm a lumbering genetic throwback with hands like dinnerplates, and I had no problems with the Jag's neck.

hi and welcome, I find width of neck at the nut etc more of a hinderence than the 24in scale and I'm a large lad also.

crap. now i have to explain. its a sit-com, set in a hotel, in devon, and its ran by an idiot called Basil Fawlty (rhymes with 'faulty') and his family, hence Fawlty Towers. anyways, theres an episode called The Germans, in which a group of germans come to stay. basil orders all the staff to not mention the war, and then he spends the rest of the episode (semi-accidentaly) making thinly veiled referances to WW2, and making a total arse of himself. the whole show is based around the premise of simple misunderstandings (most jokes involve the spanish waiter), and basil's idiocy.
damn, now ive just made myself sound all racist. i aint tho, i dont care where youre from. im sure its on youtube, but ill let you have the pleasure! peace baby
