The Golds are great too, but the Blue is hard to beat in the neck position.

I agree, I have a blue lace in the neck of my mustang. A gorgeous sounding pickup. I've got a red in the bridge, which is good distorted but nothing too exciting when clean. Right now it has 1 meg pots, and when the guitar had the stock 250k pots, the red was utter shit when clean. I'm thinking of switching the bridge to a blue, also.

Oh, yeah, hey I got this here Jag Stang now, too.



When Robert OG gets up here I'm going to make him help me trick that shit out.

LRCs old FrankenSonic. Not too sure on all the parts but i know the neck is a 65 Mustang neck, it has been refinished in 'Turbo Orange' like its Mustang sister model that i also own.
Plays great and sounds good too.

Sooo sekshi!

Here is my jag, with a pickup swap I did about 2.5 years ago.

"original"


apart


together again, with cyclone pickups


For High Res, start here.

Is that a mint guard? One of the things I love about mint is that it never looks like itself.

No, it's just the original white that came with the guitar.

The new pickups are cream or aged white. Definitely an off white.

Haha, I was talking about Fran's guitar, just above yours.

I ended up using yours as reference so that my eye could see the mint in Fran's. Before that, I thought his had an off white guard.

That's a lovely Jag. What year?

Whoops!

I think it's about 1993. I got it in 1995, and the previous owner had it a couple years, I think.

It looks like it has brass sheilding so you're prob spot on.

Exact guitar I've got. I think mine 1 year later, though.

Aye, <3 Mint guardz. I did'nt even remember/know the guard was mint, so when i opened the box i was like whooooah.

Fran, that duo is HAWT.

I hate them. Worst looking guitar ever.

Yep.

What a piece of junk.

Definitely don't want one so bad that I lie awake crying some nights.

Definitely not.

i think they're nicer with a white guard, a bit less like prince's stage outfit.
