Pretty cool stuff, $650 AU incl courier service from japan. Mightily beat up, but being Sonic Youth fans, you are desensitized to such visual woes. Fretwork is a bit iffy, i'll probably have to get it re-done. But it sounds fucking mad, like seriously crisp bridge pickup sounds and mellow neck pickup tones.
Image is kinda crap, I digitally lightened it, there was very low light at the time, even with flash. And the paint on the headstock is fine, just a bit of reflection makes it look worn. Comments, questions? |

Cheers, but goddam it I hate the saddles. A good idea, but it just doesn't work.

Hmm, there was always something about CIJ Sunburst jags that didnt appeal to me, the finish is darker that it should be. But they're still great guitars. I wanna white or lpblue jag someday

Somehow, ^ beaten up guitars look cool only if theyre beaten up by the years and years, if you just take it one afternoon and fuck the shit out of it it doesnt look realistic. natural wear, ftw

nice score!
Looks just like my Jag that came back to life recently...I assume that's an early-mid 90's MIJ? |
