There's going to be an American Vintage 2 series apparently.

I am in the states, but I recently got mine. It's flawless. 3TS.

That's really good to hear. I watched the Foo Fighters Glastonbury gig last night and if Chris Shiflet wasn't playing the DR AVII JM, he was playing an identical guitar to it. Looked brand new, and he used it for probably half the set, so must rate it. I'm pretty much sold on getting one.

[Pelicashka]

Looks like he also installed a mastery bridge on it.

I emailed the guy asking about the Jaguar and he just told me to refer to his previous email and to keep an eye on their website. Really, really wish we’d at least get some news about it, even if it’s a while before they start shipping g them out.

It just makes you sound like a petty asshole.

I'll fully admit that I will turn into a petty asshole at times, but the recipient of that really has to earn it.

That guy had that locked and loaded in him and the rep that responded to him just got that shotgun blast due to pure luck.

I wonder if it's the same guy I blasted on Facebook for shitting all over the Jagstang a guy posted happily about because it was his dream guitar and that asshole was like "it's a shit guitar and Cobain hated it". LOL Then he got mad at me for calling him out on a Saturday. 🤪

Anyone else notice the $100 price bump on the AVII Jazzmasters? Noticed it on some new dealer listings on reverb and they’re also $2499 on Fender’s website now

Wonder how they justify that? If I do end up getting an AVII JM or Jag it’s definitely gonna be used

[JSett]

Wonder how they justify that?

Probably a bit of both. Plus they're likely trying to claw back the $100,000,000 in lost orders they just announced

That further explains the small headstocks on the avri JM.

Yeah, I was going to give it a /s but then thought there's probably some of that in there too

I don’t think inflation has much to do with it since a lot of the supply chain bottlenecks and resulting price increases on materials like lumber have been trending down towards pre-pandemic levels, not anywhere near what they were in 2021-2022. Them trying to recoup $$ from those lost orders is more likely

That big ol CBS headstock is about 10% larger so makes sense lol

[DeathJag]

Does anyone know when new models will be announced?

[Mechanical Birds]

Feels like never but I really really want them to announce the Jaguar. This is killing me
