Well, two 1964 offsets fell on my lap on the same week.


No. 1 is a 1964 Jaguar:

It’s a beat-up Mexican Stratocaster I have owned since 1992.

You think you can't, you wish you could, I know you can, I wish you would. Slip inside this house as you pass by.

I was wondering the same thing. The tailpiece looks way too clean, even for a “closet classic” but especially when compared to the finish wear. Speaking of which, how on earth would you get wear like this behind the tailpiece and around the lower horn?

I don’t mean to be critical, just curious. It is a great-looking instrument!

Cheers!
