I had one and spent years trying to like it, and fixing up all teh design errors in it.

I really really hate that model. In my opinion I'm right - I also think most JS users are dissatisfied. Stock that thing is awful.

+1

It plays pretty nice, but sounds like ass plugged in.

It's so woolly and there's not a sheep in sight.

I thought everyone had come to the conclusion that the Jag-Stang is like the Marmite of guitars. All I know is with my setup (if I dare call it that) and with the pickups and wiring scheme I have (which is actually wired wrong, I somehow bypassed the tone and volume knobs and are yet to fix it) I can get a sound I really like out of it. If the sound sucked I'd have sold it. Simple as.

One day all us Jag-Stang owners should all meet up with our Jag-Stangs to see how similar/different they actually sound. I guess the love/hate thing with it is really personal taste.

But if you want to judge me on the fact that I like the sound I have, go for it.

Jesus, since when did this become about you?

We're talking about the Jag-Stang now and me and Andy disliked ours enough that after tinkering for years we gave up and sold them on. One of the switching options I had on mine was to bypass all controls to attempt to get the cleanest brightest sound out of it (I did it correctly, I didn't screw up the wiring to achieve it) and it was still no good. This is after installing a JB Trembucker with the body routed and a new pickguard made so that the humbucker was straight and the polepieces perfectly lined up with the strings.

Turns out none of these things make that much difference - that slab of basswood is muffled as hell sounding.

Wait until you play something nice and then see how you feel about it.

my biggest complaint is lack of contours. . . maybe lack of shielding, but other than it, it plays like a rocked out mustang, imo. meh.

Icey has his shit built for him for cost reasons- it's cheaper to buy a repro than buy the real thing.

I know I'd be doing the same thing if I was in the same situation.

I'd be all about the Soldano 3 channel heads too.

Or more likely two JCM800s one for clean and one for crunch.

*spurt*

agreed. And as for the "Icey shouldn't buy more guitars until he gets better" arguement... how many of us here wouldn't have done the same thing if we had the money to do so when we were starting out? I know that if I had more money when I was starting out that I would have bought tons of guitars!

I am glad that I didn't have enough money to do that now though, because I learned what kind of things I like in guitars better that way. The guitars that I dreamed about when I was starting out are drastically different than the ones I dream about now.

I'm just glad there was no internet when I started playing. Too much information can be a bad thing.

I'd have been all like "Whut's the bypass like on a Zoom1010?" instead of goig OMFG it's GOT LIGHTS AND WORDS ON IT AND MY GUITAR IS A SPACESHIP NOW

Absolutely nothing beats those first forays into effects.

Icey records them so we can revel in his delight.

I agree partially. I taught myself to play off of tabs from the internet so I don't completely wish that the internet wasn't around... but at the time that I started playing, I used to post on the messageboard at tabcrawler.com, and those dumbass metalheads had me convinced that my MIM strat sucked because it didn't have humbuckers and a floyd rose. Luckily I never went out and bought a fucking metalhead ibanez or anything, but those dumb assholes at that board were always trying to convince me that the guitars I liked were shitty... I was an outcast at that board for liking the cyclone and toronado! Then I found JS.com... and thank god I found that site!

Post by **Mike** » Sat Jan 13, 2007 6:54 pm

That is true and while tab is useful not having it was good for me as it meant I developed an ear for working out stuff unaided, which is also useful for writing your own music.
