    NOTES:

  • Tried out once or twice by Lee for "Schizophrenia", this guitar ended up replacing Jim's magenta Jazzmaster as his standard tuning guitar. For some reason Thurston used it during a small gig in December 2005 to debut "Lights Out" rather than his typical Jazzmaster.
  • Auctioned in October 2018 on Reverb.
  • At the time it was auctioned, it featured an unknown tuning on the headstock: E B D F# B C#
  • Cream body
