Sort of belated NGD: Fender CIJ HH Jag
Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2014 4:02 pm
Hi everyone, I'm brand spankin' new to this forum after being a long-time lurker and I'm happy to report that after years of Jag envy and a short time of owning the MIM Classic Player HH Jag without totally bonding with it, I'm once again in the short-scale club! I found a well-loved CIJ HH Jag on Boston's Craigslist for $300 and bit the bullet. Enough of my blathering though, onto the pics!
As you can see, this guy's been modified a tiny bit. I initially wasn't a fan of the white pickguard and wanted to take it back to the stock black, but it's growing on me so I think it'll stay for a while. When I looked under the hood while cleaning it up, changing strings, and intonating it I saw that the replacement P-90's are GFS, though I didn't see if they were Dream or Mean 90's. After putting a fresh set of 10s on this thing sounds baller, clear but thick clean and very well defined with dirt. This one's a total keeper and will probably leap-frog my Tele for the #1 spot in my arsenal.
