Yeah totally hate the trem there. I'd rather use a buzz stop
Seriously tho, you've got a really beautiful guitar there. Mabes shim the neck, raise the bridge, put on some heavier strings and adjust your pickups to get it juuuuust right.
Do they have vintage radius necks?

i played one of these and loved it, the only thing that really put me off about it was how blazing white the binding was, it's like PORCELAIN.

I love the look of these. Something about the finish makes them look a cut above the rest of the Jaguar range Fender offers at the moment. Almost as though a little extra care has been taken to make sure it looks classy.

Ooh! That is one tasty looking Jag!
I see from you photo, and from info I gathered off of Fender's website, that they incorporated some ideas from the CP, into the 50th (vibrato plate closer to the bridge, and hotter pickups, but thankfully, no tune-o-matic bridge). Is yours a CIJ, like the Thinline Jag I have on layaway? BTW, IMO, it's not necessary to go to a buzzstop, a Mustang bridge, or a Mastery bridge on a Jag. Ditch the wimpy strings Fender puts on them, and put a set of 11s on (or better yet 12s - that's what I use on Jags). The extra string tension (although, not excessive IMO) will pretty much get rid of strings jumping off of saddles, and from my experience, make it sound a little punchier.
