1965 IBM Jaguar
Thought you guys might like some pics of my 1965 IBM Jag. This was made mid-year, around May/June of '65. Has no binding, pearl dots, the finish has turned a lovely blueish/green hue, and it has the craziest Brazilian Rosewood board I think I've ever seen. It's a great player and sounds really wonderful as well, has a great, thick and chimey tone.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

Amazing, bterry !
See what you mean about the fingerboard..never seen rosewood like it ! If you squint your eyes a little, it almost looks like brown mother of pearl, like an antique hairbrush or something !
Thanks for sharing..what a way to start the day !
Best,
Jeff.

That's a very nice guitar you've got there. Agreed too, the rosewood is nuts!
You think you can't, you wish you could, I know you can, I wish you would. Slip inside this house as you pass by.

I've never seen a rosewood board like this, either - it's crazy b/c it moves like flame maple in the light, it has that same type of subtle 3D quality. I had to look twice when I first spotted it.

Possibly the greatest Jag I've ever seen. Between the ages IBM, the fretboard, and the general condition...wow. This ranks way up there.

That's flagship model rosewood right there. They were never gonna stick that on a humble music master.
