fake relic'd copy of that guitar of that guy

Post by kim »

wether the clientelle for this one are snobs just wanting it to have it, or desperate lefties having the luck to have some spare money and be jumping out the sofa shouting 'lefty ?? shortscale?? offset ?? humbuckk?? BOUND NECKZ??? next it will start raining hamburgers and beer ???


anyway (blurry) picturebomb. will see if i can get some stuff recorded tonight otherwise it'll be thursday.

lots to say, maybe i'm lazy, maybe i feel like it's all just babble ..prolly both.
i'm just enjoying this guitar. admitted i jumped on it as soon as i had a quick look at gear thinking 'okay haven't checked updates in like...over a year??..alright, let's see what's happening'..then i saw it..and laughed..then frowned, then someone said 'you know you'd love to have it, just do it'..and then i heard the same thing from youz, so i just did.
-can't imagine something like this popping up again soon..a good thing for haters, i kind of secretly hate it, when i go through the book i think 'ughh what the fuck have i/they (fender) done...but then i plug it in..and i forget all that nonsense..i like the feel and sound of this guitar, and something like this won't be affordable/available in 'my future' haha.

anyway blurry picturebomb. promise this thread needs audio so i will deliver AUDIO. asap. wish i had more free time. :(

the mustangs coming out was a nice surprise too..even for non fans i can see many lefties being very interested in those features and let's not dick around about it...they could've sold them for more. because there just aren't that many alternatives if you always drool over anything that isn't a tele or strat or les paul or sg..*yawn*
i paid the same for my lefty american p bass, and seeing the detail this guitar has...but forgetting the looks...the sound is there too. perhaps not for everyone..but for the hours i've been playing it i'm finding it very versatile in sound. maybe not the most simple with all the controls and it can be in small things like getting a surf twang with the bridge pu open and the neck pu tone not closed but just a little bit open, then the toggle switch down and voila..nasal ..open the neck pu's tone and toggle the switch up...bassy.

Looks sweet Kim. It is one thing and one thing only a rocking rock guitar. It was modded like that way before Kurt. It's just a cool as fuck guitar.

That interview looks interesting could you scan it?

yeah and i can see why he bought it when he saw it. only he paid like 300 dollars back then. that is both funny and nauseating.

i'll try and scan the interview yes, not sure of our printer does actually lol i hope so.
tbh..i read it before i went to sleep last night...and i found it a bit like reading something i'd read before..all such obvious answers and a bit meek..and all praising that jag..not much about other guitars..which makes sense for fender marketing this.. but i've read better articles about bands and in depth looks at their gear, kinda seems too many secret agendas from fender. i'll scan it tho ! or bring it to bognor ! hahaha.

HOORAYYYYY!!!!

So excited for you! I dont give no fuck about it being a signature or fake aged. That guitar is a monster.

Did it come with a record? The Cobain mustang is supposed to come with a 10"

I think if you go on the Fender site and input the serial code the first "however" many get a free Nirvana vinyl that's only available through this promo. Not sure if it is a promo for the Jaguar or mustang tho...

Great snag Kim :D
