Vintage jag body on Ebay. What do you think?

Post by Zorro » Sun Feb 18, 2018 1:59 pm

Hello! What do you think about this vintage jaguar body (”1965”) for sale on Ebay?
I don’t care that much about the experimental drillings and such, and to me it looks right, and for sure old.
But maybe there is something strange … i don’t know. And there is no stamp in the neck pocket or date marking in the trem cavity.
Do you think it could be an old copy? I have seen some well done serviceman jags in sunburst. :-[

I’m sure its the real deal. It looks right, plus the dude has the rest of the guitar for sale separately. >:( The neck seems like a bit of deal, BTW.

Thank you! I was in the bidding mood but it went out too expensive for me. But I got the trem tailpiece from that guitar anyway. Midnight (here in Sweden) slaughter. :ph34r:

Now is this body up for sale on Ebay once again, after approximately a week in the hands of the new owner, and it costs a lot more. >:(

by michael_atw... Guy's such a prick... Had something I needed at an actually decent price once. Was more than unwilling when it came to questions...

At least he's not active on Reverb anymore.
That said, the first thing I can't agree with is parting out a vintage guitar for profit. At this rate, no original vintage guitars will be left for the next generations.
