I love how Fiesta Red can sometimes look like tomato soup when it ages a certain way.
That's a beautiful jaguar.

Wow that is an amazing guitar. It's crazy to me that I used to not like Fiesta Red finishes but now it might be my favorite custom color.

At the risk of finding out I’ve made a horrendous, public error... If the switches on my 62 Jaguar were in those positions, including the rhythm circuit, mine wouldn’t make a sound. Okay, someone publicly spank me for missing something obvious in that video, but everything looks turned off to me.

EDIT: Never mind the spanking. I just looked at every other Jag/Jazzy I own. At some point in time I guess the rhythm switch on my 62 was turned around. Never once noticed it until I looked at the others. So much for buying used eqpt; huh?

He's a great player, but he fucked up Under The Bridge pretty badly there.

Edit: just read the rest of the thread. What a bizarre turn that took. Very generous of that woman, very touching for him to get that guitar, but yeah...Norm made quite a profit on that, I'm not sure in what world that's a $10,000 guitar unless it happened to be the one John Frusciante recorded with on Californication.

Mark has that sleazy used car salesman vibe. What made him watchable, was that he knew his history of the models he showcased. I'd often watch it for the intro and switch it off when he started playing Stones riffs.
Lemmo is a much more creative and skilled player, but he only really knows his Fender history.
