Beautiful!

Do you by any chance have some JMs of the same year/color combo floating around? I for one wouldn't mind a black w/ white guard B&B offset photo collection.

did they not come with tort pickguards as a standard feature or was that just an invention by fender usa for the AVRI line?

I know you all are going to kill me, but that would look unbelievable with really good tort

I actually had one in that combo...it was a refin though...oddly enough I can't find many (make that any!) pictures of it

here's one side by side with my old '64...

That's possibly my favorite Jaguar color combo.

I'm torn between tort and white, though.

What happened to the gold '64? Beautiful guitar. Did it not play well?

Mezcalhead now owns it.

it played and sounded amazing, but I had money problems and couldn't hold onto it...it's was between the '64 and the '61 I have now

the '61 won because it has the beefier '61-style neck...had the necks been the same, it would of been pretty impossible to decide which one was best.

by that point I had already sold the black one to fund the '61

Sorry to hear that. At least you got to hold onto one of them
I played one almost identical to this recently. It was a '59 with a gold guard, the same colour as the one in your picture
It had a really nice neck, but the fretboard had divots from either many years of playing, or a botched
DIY scalloping job. I'm hoping it was the former! Enjoying these threads as well.

May not be needed, but would look so so good.

Oh my lord! That's fantastic.

I have to say, I think I like the Jag in black more than the JM.
