New MIJ lefty Jazzmaster and Jaguar coming to Taniguchi.
Some lefty Jags and Jazzmasters are in the works for summer 24 from Taniguchi in japan. I just got a couple of guitars shipped to the uk from these guys and they are absolutely excellent!
Some good news for lefties anyhow, shame its only sunburst options but we have to take what we can get I guess. The bursts look closer to a three tone which is nice as the last ones had 2 tone.
Correct headstock decal too!

Re: New MIJ lefty Jazzmaster and Jaguar coming to Taniguchi.
I thought that was an OLY headstock for a moment!
That would be ridiculous to lust after. I already have a Jag with an OLY headstock & I’m not sure about keeping it.

I have nothing to offer anybody, except my own confusion?

ha i was unsure about how light the stain and wood is on the neck. Might just be photographing lighter with flash maybe.sal paradise wrote: ↑Wed Jan 24, 2024 3:20 amI thought that was an OLY headstock for a moment!

Sunburst with OLY headstock could be a thing though! New series called "Mismatched" coming soon?

I've seen this one floating around on reverb, seems to be a custom order for a UK shop? I still cannot deal with the modern fender tort guards, how is this allowed

Hahaha, yeah it’s mine. I’ve got it for sale because I can’t warrant having a cs guitar that doesn’t get played much. And I don’t really like red guitars
I was going to change the guard for mint, but then decided to try and sell it.

Re: New MIJ lefty Jazzmaster and Jaguar coming to Taniguchi.
haha no way! Hopefully someone will snap it up, should try a mint or parchment guard on it, might make the colours compliment a little more?
I've been thinking about a CS guitar but I don't know where to start. Electric XII lefty, not sure they do them tbh.

Is this a re-run of the line they had last year?
I almost pulled the trigger on one of those each of these last year, but they sold out before I could buy ‘em

I’m not the biggest sunburst guy, but the chance to get lefty offsets without forking over an insane amount of money is too good to pass up

I just picked up one of the olympic white mustangs from Taniguchi over the holiday. also had the correct logo (finally)! If I didn't already have a jaguar I'd get one of these.

Seems like there’s a few more lefties here recently- maybe we should do a lh offset thread?

Re: New MIJ lefty Jazzmaster and Jaguar coming to Taniguchi.
I absolutely love it! I took it in for a setup and had the pots rewired righty style so the sweep actually works. My tech told me the electronics are actually really nice (he did install a PIO cap, though) and the pickups are alnico 5. If you can get one of the next batch, I say go for it. #treatyoselfChillyDawg wrote: ↑Thu Jan 25, 2024 3:05 pmHow do you like the Mustang? Have been GASing hard for one
