Starcaster

jazzmaster but not because it's the weapon of choice of sy.

mainly because the shape is badass and it has humbuckers.

i wouldn't mind having one of each, though

soapbars 04.01.2006 03:32 PM

i voted jazzmaster because its my favourite fender guitar but i already have one so i doubt id get another,

if i was to get another fender guitar id probs go for a cyclone or a telecaster,
but who knows, any other than a start would be just fine for me,

i know theyre big but arent soapbars (i had to get that in) single coils?

TheDom 04.01.2006 03:37 PM

yeah, I'm pretty sure they're single coils.

I voted Jag because that's what I have and it sounds AMAZING

al shabbray 04.01.2006 05:46 PM

surely for a jazzmaster, cause I got a mustang and a stratocaster and a cheri of course

You Forgot Telecasters!

I've got two strats, a Jazzmaster and a telecaster (as far as fenders go).
I think I'd like a Jaguar, though.
Or a mustang.
Or a Nice (custom) tele.

I already have a Jazzmaster so I'd want a Telecaster.

I always thought those Jag-stangs were quite beastly looking. I was very disappointed with how they came out. YUck.

I have a 65 'Stang a 65 Jazzmaster and a mid 90's Jap Jag that is currently fucked and I'm considering doing a massive overhaul to get it to play/sound good. Ain't got the funds to do it though.
I've had 3 strats quickly pass through my possesion, 2 Mexican models and an American standard that I had for less than a week. The Mexican strats are very decent guitars; my uncle, who has played for probably 40 years now prefers them to American ones.

No
Tele, Bass VI, Electric XII, Jag Baritone options on the poll? HAHa Just nitpicking.

I have been considering selling my old Tele Custom and getting a newer highway 1 tele with a blonde finish. The Tele custom would be an awesome guitar if it would stay in tune, but I never play it because of that. I've taken it to a couple of guitar specialists who can not figure out why it goes out of tune so quickly.

I was told when I bought the Tele that it had belonged to both Robbie Robertson and Bob Dylan, and was consigned by Dylan's nephew when I got it. I have no proof whatsoever of this, but that's what they told me...

I just really love the jazzmaster, man!

hey alex 04.02.2006 01:42 PM

I've wanted jazzmaster way before I loved SY... this is when I first realized jazzmaster was the coolest guitar ever,
 



but yeah, mustang's cost half as much and are nearly as cool.

marleypumpkin 04.02.2006 01:58 PM

I got my '66 Mustang for $500. (I wish I could post a pic)

CHOUT 04.02.2006 02:09 PM

Being an owner of a Mustang and a Jazzmaster, for playablity I'd always pick the Jazzmaster. The Mustang is pretty comfortable, but the Jazzmaster just feels more solid.

marleypumpkin 04.02.2006 02:12 PM

I've never had the chance to play either the Jazzmaster, or the Jaguar. But from what I can gather from this is I should get one of each.

CHOUT 04.02.2006 02:12 PM

Here's my Fender Electrics, minus the Jag:
 

 

 

marleypumpkin 04.02.2006 02:16 PM

Lovely Mustang.

Mine is olympic white w/ the baise pearl pickguard.
All original pieces, Vibrato (pat. no. 3 241 418), switches, pick-ups, & nobs.
The ony thing not original on my '66 Mustang are the tuners.

CHOUT 04.02.2006 02:19 PM

I wanna see your 'stang. No digital camera?

marleypumpkin 04.02.2006 02:25 PM

Nope, no digital camera. I've been wanting to post it ever since I signed-up for this board. Trust me, I'll find a way to show a pic of my 'stang.

Grete 04.02.2006 02:30 PM

I've a stratocaster rosewood...so...stratocaster!:-P
