NGD: 1966 Jaguar with BBB neck!

Post by kracdown » Mon Nov 26, 2018 9:42 pm

Got one of my dream Jaguars. Checks just about every box for me - weird, looks amazing, sounds ridiculous. Late 60’s body with 1972 lefty neck. Most resonant (and lightest) Jaguar I've owned so far. Needs a setup, possibly a Mastery/Staytrem, and we're in business.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that may be the only lefty BBB Jag neck ever to exist.

Yeah, the number of ways in which this is a unique guitar is quite crazy.

It's absolutely amazing. Holy crap.

This isn't the only one ;) . But it is so rare I've really only found one or two other examples. In fact, I was almost skeptical that this neck was fake when I first found it.

Those are the only two I can find on the internet.

My, that is glorious.

I didn't realise the '66 red in the sunburst was so light-fugitive, that alone is beautiful. And the neck takes it to another dimension.
