I'm sure someone's got a Lotus 1-2-3 handbook they can give you for your collection.

I don't like the look of a jagstang, all the rest of your guitars are gorgeous. What year are the Mustangs?

Is that Alstang or another Mustang in the corner?

1962 Fender Jaguar

Bought this earlier this year as a 30th birthday gift to myself. After having a refret, and some sanding down to the shrunken pick guard to allow the pickups to be adjusted, it is now my best playing and sounding guitar by far. It's a refin, but other than that everything is original.

The Mrs found me a genuine 1962 Fender ad to go with it, which is nice

Where did you get the refret done, and how much was it? My Jazzmaster needs a refret and I'm in the same area as you.

A chap called Andy, http://www.ozzyowl.co.uk/ , up in Meersbrook.
Here's the prices he emailed me:-

Refret (Rosewood/Ebony Unbound) – £150
Refret (Rosewood Bound) – £180
Refret (Maple Unbound) – from £200
Refret (Maple Bound) – from £225

He usually uses stainless fretwire, but was absolutely fine with my request for normal, vintage size fretwire.

I'd recommend him 100%, top bloke

Thanks, I'll have a look.

Well, isn't that just about the nicest guitar you'll see all day. Nice, classy looking setup too. Happy belated 30th. Getting a guitar for your 30th is a good idea. My lovely wife was generous enough to by me a floral Jem for mine. Same same, but different...

Anyone know where the prison stang is?

That's a gorgeous Jag.
