They’re really great guitars, once I changed out the pickups it really came alive. Love that white with tortoise shell guard.

Ha, yeah the pickups is why I sold it. Sounded terrible, and at the time my JM was doing perfectly good duty for the band I was in.

Just another little regret.

Yeah the pickups were definitely pretty weak. I didn’t play mine for a long time but held onto it for sentimental reasons and because I just love jags. Once I replaced the pickups it took on new life.

That's a lovely looking guitar, I can feel a custom shop Jag is in my future at some point.

What is the unit sat on top of the amp? It's got the Jag control plate with chicken knobs, looks intriguing!

The comment on Fender's facebook page says:

"Take a look at this magnificent Satin Firemist Silver Jaguar featuring a bound neck, MOP block inlays and matching headstock. This beauty built by Levi Perry has seven modular circuits that can be swapped in and out with ease."

So you can swap the control plates, which each holds a different module. The box is just to store the 6 other modules I guess.

Very interesting! Wonder what the different modules do?

Also noting the hex head screws on there... perhaps machine screws and not wood screws, leading me to think there's some sort of captive metal panel behind the guard that these attach to (instead of screwing into the wood). Would make sense from a "wear and tear" perspective...

All in all a very interesting setup that I'd like to learn more about. Oh and don't be surprised to see me put a chickenhead rotary pickup selector on my next guitar... :D

I made a trade yesterday for a Squier Bass VI and snapped a photo of it alongside my #1.

Nice! Makes me wonder if it’d look good with a chrome pickguard
