Used by Lee:
2009-2010
2009 -- CGDCGD (What We Know)
2010 -- solo shows
NOTES:
This is the first prototype for Lee's custom signature Jazzmaster -- the only difference I see is that this one has a regular headstock where-as the finished model has a black headstock. Lee has used the prototype live, though possibly only for solo gigs -- but he did use it for 'What We Know' on the Pitchfork A>D>D session (he used the 'finished' model for the remainder of the songs).
As of September 2010, Lee is still using this for his solo gigs (typically hung from the ceiling pendulum-style).
