Funny you say that, when I unboxed the body I thought the same too. :jacked:

Next to my blue Mustang bass looks pretty white though. ;D

Yeah, relative to the pickguard it looks almost like sonic blue. I have the same tone of Olympic white on a Warmoth JM and with a tort guard, it definitely looks white though.

This looks great! Basically like a Jag-Stang duo-sonic.

Thank you. I hated my Jagstang body unfortunately, but liked everything else.

All the guts look fine on this musicmaster version.

Angled single coil neck and humbucker on the bridge. Just the way it should be.

The body is 4.5 lbs, the total weigh is 7.5 lbs. I was going to get a daphne blue body but i just knew the white body would look so good against that aged pickguard. :-*

But wtf? Looks blue today :wtf:

My custom full scale Jag-Stang is like that. I paid for it to be finished OLY and looks light blue. Sort of like Sonic Blue with stage lights. LOL

I love this mashup guitar, looks like a blast

My 93 Squier is Oly White and has had that blue tint since I got it new back in the day.

However, when its up next to an actual Sonic Blue guitar it looks more white

Nice looking guitar! But, in my opinion, those chicken head knobs look wrong in there. I know, I'm nit picking... :fp:

What strap is that in the OP? it's cool and the ends look weird, are they moulded plastic/rubber?
