There must already be an amazing concentration of offsets on this board....

I'm currently down to one electric guitar, I'm sure I'll get more in the future though!:
'61 Jazzmaster (ash)...got it off Doug.

I have an Ocean Turquoise AVRI jazzmaster that I love. I have a Squier Jazz bass and a Jagmaster also. The Jagmaster is currently minus headstock after a particularly crazy gig last St. Patrick's day

Re: There must already be an amazing concentration of offsets on this board....
It just hit me that every Fender I have is offset So, if the others do count, I'm at 7.
3 old JMs
MIJ Jag
Mustang & Jagstang
Musicmaster bass
plus the Jazzblaster project which should officially count now that I have 'real' Fender body for it now (when it's finished that is)

'64 JM, '69 (or '70) JM, '62/'65/'87 partsmaster Jag, '73 Jazz Bass. So that's four. Plus something like half a jag in parts.

Re: There must already be an amazing concentration of offsets on this board....
I know If I had it sold, I could buy the rest of my parts and have it all finished real soon I just hate the whole hassle of taking photos of it, writing up an eBay description, paying eBay money to list it, and answering all the lame questions people ask. I suppose I'll have to one day soon though. It was delivered already, though it is at my paren't house and they live an hour and a half away from here.daydreamdelay wrote: man I would've already if I wasn't so broke right now, you should ebay it and put the money towards wrapping up that Jazzblaster!

Re: There must already be an amazing concentration of offsets on this board....
just use the stock photo and description from where you bought it and explain that it hasn't even been opened yet as you found a great deal you couldn't pass up for an already finished MIJ body. i'm sure whoever is looking at a new unfinished body isn't going to be too nitpick every detail, maybe at least get it started with a BIN for slightly less than the others listed.. it might sell quickly and then you're back on track

Re: There must already be an amazing concentration of offsets on this board....
I'll toss mine into the mix...
I've got a Sep '65 burst no binding, a no neck date (worn off or purposely removed) 65 partsmaster recently refin'd rather poorly in black, and a refin'd white '61 with a cool tweed case. The partsmaster is my fav (but it needs a new nut and a refret), the burst sounds the worst, and the '61 has the best neck. I'd like to get the '61 refin'd in blonde but really not sure who I would trust to do the work and do it in a reasonable amount of time. It's not worth the trouble if I have to wait 9 months for it.
