i'm in the uk so not sure where you are for ebay, but if you do a 'completed item' search you will get the prices people are paying here. varies between £100-£200. the vistas (£250ish?) seem to be more sought after but the price difference is greater than the actual quality difference. probably better to buy standard & upgrade.

nice fully-loaded candy jagmaster body went for £64 this week.

nice couple here:

& if you can hang on for something local (collection only):

opportunists & cynics can put wildy ambitious prices in their listings but they don't generally sell for that. well maybe to mugs (don't be one).

asking price & selling price different things.
+1 on the jagmaster. Ive only ever played the Silver sparkle with the longer scale neck, but i love the look.
My Holy grail is a First run Japanese Vista (without bullet truss rod)short scale in sonic blue. :?
May the Fuzz be with you

How close are the new jazzmaster necks to the J Mascis squier neck?

Is it just the same neck?

I've owned 4 - White, Red, Sunburst, and Black. All were amazing instruments that I regret getting rid of. The red was my absolute favorite.

If you can find one, hang on to it. A tip - check GC's used site. I purchased White, Sunburst, and Black through them at way less than they're worth, because they didn't know what was special about it, and assumed it was a normal Jagmaster.

That is a very cool looking JM. Def a notch or two above the Jim Root signature JM, which is cool in its own right.
The all white look rocks, and the amber plastic tip is a great touch. If it was mine, I'dd consider adding another small colour element, like changing one of the tone knobs to a red or purple one :-))

Nothing is anything until it is written. After that, it's everything.

Where did you get the white pickguard from? ;D

That's what I want, a white-on-white Jazzmaster (or maybe a parchment guard).

I had a Mascis and sold it. I picked up a Deluxe last week and it's really just a Mascis with a red body and no signature. The necks are exactly the same.
