I've official joined the JAGUAR club now! I wasn't really after a jaguar, I've always wanted one, but the right one never came my way or things never worked out when I've had oppurtunities in the past...anyway, I've been lurking on ebay the past few weeks and saw this one pop up with a starting bid of only $800, A American 62 RI jaguar with case and its signed by Joan Jett with certificate of authenticity and all the case candy that comes with it new...so I decided I'd watch it and see what it goes for, well after a week on ebay it had no bids so on the last MINUTE, seriously, I bid on it and won it for $800. Did I get a deal? This thing is mint as shit like it was never played just hung on a wall. I love the way it sounds, I don't think I've ever owned a guitar that sounds this good. I'm not use to it, as I'm used to playing the coronado, but I maded a quick video of it running through my Ampeg vt-22 and a MYSTERY pedal. What pedal does it sound like to you? ITs for an upcoming demo.

Yeah, its faded bad...I assume it was done when the guitar was new. So like 2001, then probably hung on a wall as a display and the sunlight faded it.
Its cool that its signed, but I'm not worried about it if it gets rubbed off, The guitar is worth every penny w/o a sig.

Total score Cowbell! The JJ sig would be a selling point for me even on a squire bullet.
