I know I'm super late to the party... but this is awesome.

I've been wanting to do a JagStang or Cyclone bass build for a while now, and this is really good inspiration.

I sold off all my Fender/Squire short scale basses... but a project bass would be awesome... I think it'd be rad to try to replicate the single coil/humbucker style...

Anyways... looks amazing!

I'm late too although I did see it originally. This is next to your starcaster in terms of success. Great job !!

i'ma take the day off of doing nothing and wait anxiously to hear it.
7 months later, I'm still waiting to hear it.
oddly, i haven't been into work in all that time either..
so i'll just blame that last bit on you (and not say my fibromyalgia...)

Just realized I never did a demo for this. So here's some live video of my band this past weekend. My bass player is playing it. I'm that dude drumming by the way.

I was gonna say the same thing! That's a sick bass! Your band sounds good, definitely can't imagine drumming and singing at the same time...

That looks awesome. I have never been a fan of the jagstang, but it looks great as a bass. Now I want one.

For anyone wanting to hear some more of the Jag-Stang bass, we just recorded some new songs and I played it on two of them. Here's the title track from our new album/demo.

http://splintermite.bandcamp.com/

or here

http://soundcloud.com/tucker-chesko/new-disease

The verses were recorded with the Jag-Stang, mustang neck pickup solo'd and the chorus' are my P-Bass

Both recorded direct and reamped with amplitube's SVT4-Pro model
