This is just one reason why i love my job, We are ordering a CUSTOM SHOP JAZZMASTER IN OLYMPIC WHITE w/ TORT GUARD, HEAVY RELIC 9.5IN RADIUS, BIG FRETS MATCHING HEADSTOCK
sorry i'm just excited because you don't often find places that will order a custom shop jazzmaster and put it on the wall for sale. it's just awesome that it's at my job. it's going to be so cool, but eh 6-12 months is a long wait, but it will be worth it. we were talking about getting a B&B neck for it but i would have been too much money and would have made it a masterbuilt rather than team built

you could probably buy a vintage jazzmaster for that.
the custom shop is really only worth it for one-offs and strats/teles. cool that your shop is ordering one, though.
i've spent most of my day drooling over this thin skin:

yeah that would have been awesome, but we had to order something that we thought can sell and the jazzmaster just fit the bill. i may order a bass IV for myself one day.
It's going to be awesome, none the less.
bubbles, i love that jazzmaster it's fantastic.
who said they were coming out with 58's with gold guards? custom shop or avri?

Gonna be hot!
Not many CS Fenners round these parts, surely will at least be a great player.

Take extensive pics & notes so you can create the ULTIMATE FENDER CUSTOM VS REGULAR GUIDE (exclusively on shortscale!).

Dude, you gotta just touch your dong on it when nobody is looking. I know I fucking would. So when some asshat comes in to buy it and treats everyone like shit, you've still got the upperhand no matter what he does. It's kinda like asspennies.

BAHAHA that really made me laught it's so groos tho. there is one guy who is just such an ass...... i'll stop. he doesn't like fender anyway lol
the rich guy that will probably buy it is really nice he has alot of guitar, he's a doctor. and he's got a J. Mascis and a few vintage jazzmasters and a vintage sonic blue duo sonic. and he's like wilco

Gee, I wish I had a job like that. All I get to see is grocery and old people.
