1999 AVRI Jaguar

Traded a few trinkets for this Jag. The original owner did a few [questionable] mods, but the ASAT pickups in it aren't too bad. You can see how much the clear coat has yellowed over the years in comparison to the 2007 AVRI Jazzmaster. Personally I like a starker white, but the cream has some charm.

At some point I may modify it towards a more stockish configuration, but for now it's been pretty good.

Man, it looks great, especially next to the Jazzmaster. White/Tort Jazzies look awesome so the big pickups lend some smart looks to the white Jag methinks. Beautiful pair of guitars anyway.

It was for sale here, too - different scratchplate or different guitar?

Same guitar, he just added the diamond plate to the switch later. Personally I liked it better before without it.

The ASATs sound a bit too midrangey and hot for my liking, but I can probably wait awhile before dropping money on a pickguard and pickups.
