Some pics of my other offset - 1960 Jazzmaster.
No Date neck (late '59), 12/59 body date, tort guard, '60 neck plate. 100% original.



The refin was done by a local luthier, who was refinishing my gibson LG2 at the time, and used the same colours. Its a nice finish but not vintage correct. I am considering refinishing it either black or foam green, as I have seen these colours with tort guards. I may refin over the top of the sunburst, and then allow it to wear through. The other option is oly white. I have not seen any other custom colours with tort guards.
