Seriously, the value of that guitar is way above what the dollars would dictate. Vista are way tremendous.

^ This guitar actually came from Sam Ash on Sunset Blvd. It was my Epi LP that came from GC Pasadena. Either way, I still lucked out with both guitars.

That's what I'm discovering.

This guitar is super high quality and (surprisingly) perfect for teh shoegaze. It's one of my all-time favorites after 4 days.

Dare I swap the neck for the Jag-Stang neck?

the last one I put together for Rhys took about a year. It took a visit from Al to make me go buy a drill press and get it done properly.

im not sure how long mine is going on.


in contrast i think the first one I did for doog 10 years ago took me about 2 days.

Doesn't Jagmaster have conversion neck? If so, then the neck pocket might not work well with Jagstang neck

P.S. Replying the name of the thread - you are bastard. Great score.

Rhys's mannequin village loves his too, they're just not the most emotive bunch facial expression-wise.

Only the newer Jagmasters (made in China) have conversion necks.

The Vista series is a true 24" CIJ neck. Just like my Jag-Stang.

For now I'm going to leave them alone...
