Thanks! Good to hear from another Fiesta Finishes customer. Paul from Fiesta Finishes has been awesome to work with.

As I've mentioned earlier, the neck is absolutely perfect for me - very much like my Johnny Marr Jag's mid 60s C shape neck. The nut width is 1 3/4 (1.75) inches / 4.445 centimeters (if Internet inches to centimeter conversion charts did not fail me). :-[

Whoah, seriously, 1.75"? That's Fender's D-width - I've never seen that on a Jag before! Super rare find. I can see why you'd like it though!

Absolutely beautiful! although my personal preference would be a mint guard and not a tortoiseshell guard.

What a beaut! I love white jags with matching headstocks. That color doesn't quite do it for me on JMs

Thanks, guys! It looks to be the original pickguard, so the tort's gotta stay. I like vintage tort and Spitfire tort. I like mint guards, too, but I have a few on my jazzmasters. 8)
