Probably an extra $100. But I believe that Musician's Friend ships internationally.

That's a great price.

The Fender Blacktop Jaguar B90 Electric Guitar Candy Apple Red Rosewood Fingerboard is also on closeout for $242.87

There's no sign of these being reduced to clear over here as yet. They're still showing at £638 everywhere I've looked. <£200 is an absolute steal.

Unfortunately I don't think they'll ship Fender guitars to the UK. If you set your location as UK nothing comes up in a search :(

I tried to change shipping country to UK but "This item doesn't ship to the selected country, Please remove it from your cart before proceeding or change the Ship-To country."

Oh well. If I had a little more cash flow right now, I'd totally offer to ship some to the UK.

Sweet. I'd be all over that except the Jaguarillo has my heart.

couldnt you set up one of those export addresses so that you can use paypal to ship to a USA address and then they ship to UK after?

I'm thinking AVRI Jag pickups in the neck/middle, and splitting the bridge pickup.

will jaguar size pickups fit properly in a strat size pickup hole? i'm new to the whole single coil thing, and it seems like they all have particular mounts/sizes. i'd love to explore that option if they would fit without a crazy amount of modification. I'm sort of looking into Motor City Pickups and Lace HSS options right now.
