There is a new article in the latest SPIN Magazine about J, and right next to him is the Signature jazzmaster. I know for sure because there is a brief description of it right next to it.

Looks really cool! Signed headstock, matching headstock, awesome sparkle finish.

His glowing love for the guitar didn't make me want to buy it at all.

Well, he did help build it with Fender, he has to like it to some degree. Plus he has been using a lot in the videos, live and during TV appearences.

If it's CIJ then it will probably be a regular guitar just a different color. I know if my favorite jazzmaster was stolen another that I love as mutch would be a tall order.

It's not about the gear! It's about you, your hands, your imagination, your feelings.

I think the frets are different from stock Jazzmaster frets (Bigger), and it has a Tune-o-matic bridge. Other than that I think it's pretty regular.

Quick update - I saw on MTV Canada that they are giving away one of the J Mascis models in their studio in Toronto  today as a promo for the Toronto show tonight. Of course no specific details on the actual guitar - they just called it the J Mascis Fender guitar.
