Pretty crazy once you think about it.... SY bought their Jazzmasters cheap, all of those 80s and early 90s shoegaze bands went into pawn shops and bought their Jazz and Jags cheap, and now all of those guitars are worth more thana couple grand each. Who would have known?

back then, the vintage market wasn't as batshit insane as it is now. now any 'vintage' piece of gear is insanely expensive.
the thing is, even if these jazzmasters were squire releases, i cant see them being any cheaper then $4-500. the days of getting old gear for cheap died with the birth of ebay
