I've done this before with other models, but never a Jaguar. I bought a returned B-stock righty Squier CV for parts, pretty cheap. I found a great lefty alder body from USA Made Guitars. I will transplant most of the electronics from the CV and make my own pick guard, no problem. I found a nice lefty lower control plate from Angela, but the lefty upper control plate cannot be found anywhere south of scalper prices! The project has been sitting for weeks waiting for a resolution to that parts search. Hoping for suggestions there.
Ultimately I want to give this one a transparent surf green look (surf green color, but still showing some of that grain). But I don't feel safe committing to a body finish without knowing exactly what the control plates will be.
