You may be right. I'm not 100%, I've had people tell me both. The headstock leads me to believe its Shoreline as well as the tiny bits where there is a chip and the clear coat is missing. If I ever get a 1965 Fender Custom color chart to compare it to, that'll help. Or I suppose I could take off the trem and look at the paint in the cavityeggwheat wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 12:25 pmCant stand the mastery bridges...think they really spoil these guitars. But hey apart from that they look amazing...I love the Inca Silver especially! I have a 64 shoreline gold jag myself. Are you 100% its shoreline?? Every gold '65 I've even seen is firemist.Mattosaurus87 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 18, 2021 6:59 pmThey're all the real deal and all original minus the Mastery bridges. The clear coat on the gold has yellowed from UV over time so it looks like Firemist, its lighter in the cavities. The Inca is a very special one and will probably go to the grave with me haha

Haha I pronounce it "jag-wharrr" but now I feel like I should fancy it up with the "jag-you-uh"Maggieo wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 12:35 pmHe could even get away with "jag-WIRE."SignoftheDragon wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 10:05 amYou've achieved the status where nobody on this board would bat an eye if you pronounced it "jag-you-uh."
That collection of custom colors makes me want to pronounce it however YOU would.

My guide is this: "jag-wharrr" is the American guitar, and "jag-you-arr" or "jag-you-uh" is the car.Mattosaurus87 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 1:55 pmHaha I pronounce it "jag-wharrr" but now I feel like I should fancy it up with the "jag-you-uh"Maggieo wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 12:35 pmHe could even get away with "jag-WIRE."SignoftheDragon wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 10:05 amYou've achieved the status where nobody on this board would bat an eye if you pronounced it "jag-you-uh."

Somewhere between "I'd never spend that much on a guitar" and "thats a deal of a lifetime"
Also, Fender: The Golden Age 1946-1970 is one of the greatest books ever. I highly recommend getting a copy if you don't have one!

Re: I found an original 1964 Sherwood Green Jag!
Based on the recommendations here, I just ordered the book (used, good condition hard cover). New condition books are priced pretty high now. Looking forward to having a good read!Mattosaurus87 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 20, 2021 9:57 amAlso, Fender: The Golden Age 1946-1970 is one of the greatest books ever.
