FENDER JAGUAR (WOOD)
   
Used by Thurston 1985

  • 1985 -- GGDDD#D# (Brother James, Kill Yr Idols, World Looks Red, Green Light, Flower - THURSTON)

    NOTES:

  • This guitar is interesting. It was the first legitimate Fender Jaguar used in the band, and I'd previously thought it was the same guitar used by Lee on the '98 tour for Karen Koltrane/Female Mechanic. However, I'd had my suspicions that it might have been the Old Jag cleaned up after many years of a rather disheveled appearance, and I've now virtually confirmed this with a new picture showing that the Old Jag and the Lee '98 Jag have identical stickers. So, now I suppose this Wood Jaguar was only used by Thurston in the mid 80s, unless it actually IS the Old Jag before it was radically stripped, but I really don't know. For now I'll list them as 2 separate guitars until I get information to the contrary.
