NGD: CME Player Jazzmaster shell pink/olympic white

Post by Voyevoda » Mon Jul 26, 2021 10:28 am

Hey all! I got this last week and made my upgrades to it(swapped tuners and pots) so now it is done and ready to post! This is my first jazzmaster so i am gonna do some experimenting with strings I think any recommendations would be helpful! I haven't had any trouble with the bridge so that is good also lol.

Congrats and enjoy! She's a beauty! Tort pickguard is always nice, but with the Olympic White headstock, maybe a cream or parchment pickguard would look nice with it. Also, shell pink and mint is a classic look, too. 8)

What's the story behind the pink/white body/head mismatch?

I don't know. CME made a run of them and i like it a lot and the specs were right so i bought it! The rest of te run is darker colors with a black headstock so with the lighter one they decided to go white I guess

Oh wow, I'd assumed you'd either had it refinished or it was a mix of parts or something. Maybe someone had marshmallows on their mind when deciding on the finish.

I take it the Strat selector knob stock as well? It definitely has its own character. A bit quirky and cool!

Yes it came with a four way switch with an added series setting :)

Interesting combo, I like the white headstock with it. Great guitar!
