Bloody hell..

So almost 2 more weeks no communication..

They sent me a message saying they fixed the decal. They didnt change it from "Fender Mustang" to "Lender Jagstang" They only removed the Mustang bit and added the Jagstang bit leaving the Fender part...

At this point i just said fuck it, just ship it.

Hopefully those tuners can be swapped out for kluson-style easily. I dread those cheap trapezoid tuners from the 90s because you can't easily swap them out. The tuning posts in the picture makes me think you're in for some trapezoids though.

They may need a lesson in stringing the tailpiece :D

Well hey, it's a really nice shade of blue at least! Is that control plate just clear plastic with a silver backing? :wtf:

Couple of questions:

- are those your pictures?
- how did you order the custom colour?

If I could get that in Sherwood green, I'd take the risk for the price. If not... I'll wait for your review.

Not my pictures. Should be here next week Tuesday maybe.

I asked for the color and submitted a sample pic.

I'm guessing the MIM re-issue won't look any better than this.
