Fender Jaguar Body Heavy Relic No Neck All Electronics!

$800? auction.
There is also a picture of a dog/bear thing on the lower part of the body behind the bridge and "Jacuzzi Meatball" is
written in Sharpie across the pickguard. I have no idea what it means.
I think it adds character.

In fact, the whole body kind of exudes a Sonic Youth vibe.
what a haggard piece of shit (seller & guitar)

Wow -- absolutely hammered dogshit. That's either a well-though-out bit of parody or an extremely and genuinely clueless seller.

I look at that and think "I'd like to do something with that". I just itch to scrape some of that crap off, but I don't think the "or best offer" is going to go for the $100 I'd be prepared to offer.

When I saw the price I thought ok a pre CBS or something like that, but as it is a 90s MIJ, this is ridiculous ... unless he's a known artist where he lives. But then it wouldn't be on ebay I guess.

It is O.B.O

Maybe he thinks that if he puts a REALLY high buy it now price then he will get better offers?

It was re-listed, and is currently at $200. I want it just for the challenge of restoring it.

I bought this thing for 350$.. I already have a neck for it so i'd say it's a pretty sweet deal. Im going to paint it white with matching headstock. If anyone wants to see pics let me know
if it feels good do it.

I'd say $350 was pretty good for it. there should be no need to paint it really. just clean all the crap off.

I really don't think it needs to be refinished. it just has what looks like some tempura paint and other scum and dirt on it. you just need to scrape or sand it off, clean it up a bit and then polish it.
