1. $600 is not cheap for a CIJ Jaguar, $400 is.
2. God DAMN that Flamed Sunburst and RED TORT pickguard is honking ugly

I've seen the 62' reissues selling new for $799 in Toronto, so $600 isn't bad in comparison.
And yes, red tort is horrible.

I'm pretty sure that's in canadian dollars, which would mean it would be in the 500's in US funds.

If equivalent to 500 US I think the price with the case is good - but that guitar is UGLEE.

Ugh. I saw that. I considered writing mean shit to the seller but that would have been too high school, even for CL.

The Canadian dollar is close to par to the American dollar these days, so it's maybe $580 US dollars.

I think that this is one of those tacky "foto-flame" models that came out in the early 90's.

It's red tort for sure... someone else on the board has a jag with a similar AWFUL red guard.

Hotrod maybe?

nah that guard isn't as offensive as that first one.

i don't think overly red tort looks too horrible on white, it's when you get it near sunburst that bad things happen.

I think red tort looks better on light colours, like above, brown tort looks better on 'burst. I think a brown tort on a white Jag would look gross.

Doesn't look gross on my Jag. Would prefer a white PG though.
