Well as decent as someone like me (who sucks at photography) with just a Camera Phone can take (it does have a spiffy Carl Zeiss lens though). I was disappointed the face on one came out so washed out. Maybe someone can fix in photoshop, I'm awful. I'm taking a leaf out of James' book and spoiling them for your pleasure. Yes the people who owned our house before us painted the fences like that. It is hilarious.
Anyway, can you tell I love it?

get that grass cut!

what are the neck profiles like on those? C shape or quite thin?

haha I knew someone would comment on the grass. It's pretty thin profile, reminds me of my Jag-Stang's neck. I like it, it's completely different to the clubby neck on my Telecaster though. It's a C according to fender.com

Really great quality compared to how much you down played it, haha
I wonder if we have that phone stateside...

Anyways, really beautiful guitar, man.

If you're interested it's a Nokia N73. The nipple lets it down but it's a good phone.


I would be lost without it, it's what I use to photograph all the pedals I built for people and stuff.

my girlfriend had one of those, i always thought the operating system was utterly infuriating. the camera is good though.

i take it you're gelling with the 'stang then?

Indeed. I can't fricking wait to play it with the band. Hopefully my drummer will be able to practise soon (he just had a kid).

'Tis lovely but I wonder if you're not getting a tad obsessed

as long as he's not tucking it into bed at night and singing to it...

You really don't know me. This is what I do with my life.

I just deleted about a gig of old guitar pictures that I would take to get just the right angle, when I realized that I could just look at my guitars whenever I wanted to anyway. But at heart I'm a documentarian, that Mustang reminds me of mine... I REALLY like the tint of the neck.

Indeed. The tint is lovely. It makes my Telecaster's neck look a little anemic in comparison.

I wish my CIJ Mustang and Telecaster had their respective models on headstocks

Poor lefty :/

You broke your rule about replying to my threads.

what rule? ive only got the video rule

I thought it was all visual media, even if you're explictly mention in Media.

I, too, love the headstock grain. I don't really like to see much wood grain but when it hits that balance between striking and subtle it's brilliant.

The pickguard gaps near the bridge and control plate seem fairly accurate to how the guard on mine has shrunk. I'm also jelaous of the white tuners, I need to get me some of those when I have the money.

The neck is super glossy looking, is it any glossier than your baja?

is that sticker smudge on the neckplate period correct?

They're both glossy as fuck but a comparison just now yields that the Mustang is more glossy-er.

lol @ bubbles

Obvious only the pre 69 modals have pickguard shrinkage.
