NGD: 1962 Jazzmaster sunburst
I picked this up yesterday. It used to belong to Joe Bonamassa, but I guess everything vintage has belonged to him at some point. He traded it in on a vintage Les Paul Custom. I noticed in the store that the middle position sounded quite thin, and, since I don't trust myself with a soldering iron, so, after taking some pictures, I immediately took it to my tech who confirmed that the pickups are out of phase. He's going to go over it and fix that and do a setup so I won't have i back for a couple of weeks. Curious to find out whether the pickups weres out of phase from the factory or someone did that on purpose.

That one is very clean and unfaded for the particular year. Nice find!

No, I don't think so. The price was on the high-end but I think it's within reason considering the condition.
