That's the way Jag-Stangs are. Look at any of them. They all have strange line. If I was to re-do anything on that guitar, it would be around the bridge. I would've made it go straight down rather then be cut around for a mustang bridge and trem.
I know jagstangs look liek that but icey always talked about doing the horn shape of the pg better, also the gap is exactly what i was referring too. That empty area above the slanted bridge looks sloppy. The color tort is also ugly.

I like the Blue color, I think it'd look better with white, mint, or black. People need to get away from tort, it's ugly and the new stuff is even uglier, IMO.

I like the brown tort. Its different. Ultimately, it's up to Icey. If he's happy, that's all that matters. He dreamed this thing up and it's made to exactly what he wanted.

Overall it's still very snazzy looking. A PG isn't a big deal, it's such an easily changeable part.

+1 on the Pickguard nastiness around the bridge and on the top horn - Icey clearly stated he wanted that fixed.

Overall, the guitar looks amazing! I love that blue with the brown tort! Real tasteful. Looks like a really well made guitar all the way around. How does it sound?

sounds angry at bridge , angry j.b :lol:

it´s amazing how string thuru are flexible to do bend´s , it´s like play on soap amazing


About pickguard the "gap" at horn have on original too , maybe revision fixing the gap the bridge rodrigo found problemn in adapt bridge high radius on vintage radius neck :lol: found way and got purfect at end , i loved the brown turtle and thats i will not change :D , anyway the pickguard cut is perfect and it´s kickass quality if i do again i will ask dave to do again .... real good finish ...

I only just saw this because I want on JS.com. Wow, beautiful. Shame about the tortoise shell, I understand you like it Icey, but that thing would look real hot with a white pickguard, but that's just me. :)

Looks very well made. Shame about the pickguard shape as well, I think that could've been better, but hey, you like it so what else is there to add? The colour is very nice and shiny too. :)

That's a really nice guitar, but the pickguard is fucking awful.

Awesome!

Although I usually only like tort on sunbursts, I think it goes well with the blue paint job on this one. Nice!

Are the switches wired with the standard Mustang on/off/phase setup?
