Rare Lefty Jag-stang on CL

Post by taylornutt »

I inquired about it and the guy won't take trades. Jag-stangs are more rare on CL, but I have never seen a Lefty jag-stang ever.

That's cheap as chips! The last couple on eBay have gone for $1200 - $1500...crazy.

I am trying to work a deal for this guitar for Sven. Hopefully it will be part of the Shortscale family soon.

Are you actually from Winnipeg by any chance? Mr. Craigslist says he has a high offer from Winnipeg.
A Whole Bunch of Guitars. Some with sparkles. Some with Pearl. Some with racing stripes.

No, I am down here smoldering in the Texas sun as we speak.

Hmmmm. Craig (we'll call him) emailed me and said a guy from Winnipeg offered him 50% more than the asking price. I just find it weird that Craig and I were working on a deal when another person form my little Canadian town also wanted the same guitar.
Craig does seem very nice. I congratulated him on getting a better price.

Good eye!
I didn't see that. I was ready to buy it, too. Not that that would be bad. Hmmm. I actually do like the trem on my Mustang, so I could have gone either way.
I was going to flip it to play right handed.

The seller was a little concerned because 3 people from Winnipeg were making offers and he was worried that it might be a scam.

He just contacted me to say he sold it to one of the others. Three from Winnipeg is weird, though. A little too weird. Spooky, in fact.

I was able to score the Jag-stang for Sven. I am glad I could help out a fellow SSer.

PICS OF THIS PLEASE.

If you ever decide to sell it, please PM me directly. I've never gotten to even play a JS due to being lefty, I didn't think they even made these lefty in the US, ever.
