Nice demo of the Jag. The pickups sound amazing in these! Definitely gonna get one but I can’t decide between the black or vintage white
Yeah it sounds really good. He's getting quite a lot of spank with a very light touch, those strings must be quite a light gauge.
Probably 9s. Fender stubbornly puts 9s on Jags and Mustangs.

Right oh btw, this guitar surprisingly comes outta the factory with .10 strings! Bravo Fender... better than 9ers on a shortscale! ::)

Nope, they come with 10ers!

Nice. That’s a lot better. Not that 9s can’t work. I’ve used them on a Mustang before.

Wow, the neck pickup & both pickups sounds awesome. Why didn’t my mij Jag sound like that? A sound like that could totally replace my telecaster :-*
I have nothing to offer anybody, except my own confusion?

I have a set of 10s on my Mustang that isn't painted yet and has no electronics and they feel as light as the set of 9s I have on my orange HSS Floyd Strat that's tuned half a step down. LOL

I'd be surprised if the pickups aren't just rebranded ones from the first line...

First time I've seen that guy's demos and he was really good! Calm, excellent playing, excellent sound quality, and demoed all the sounds without a whole bunch of hyperbole.

That's why it always pays to watch an item on Reverb before buying. A lot of dealers have gotten more aggressive with direct offers for watchers. I recently picked up a brand new Vintera 60s Modified Strat for $670 just because I added it to my watch list. They already had it marked way down to move old stock, and about an hour after I added it to my list, I received a direct offer for another $275 off.

Yeah it sounds really good. He's getting quite a lot of spank with a very light touch, those strings must be quite a light gauge.
Thanks for sharing! It came with 10s from the factory, but I’ve got a set of 11-50 on it in the video (and going forward)
