That's a lot of great information there! Thanks!
Talk about the Fender Jazzmaster, Jaguar, and any other offset waist guitars with us!

Going through my notes, I did find a detail that might actually back up this theory. There may have been some Gibson parts laying around in that time frame. The Jagstang is believed to have been recieved around the same time as Skystangs 2 and 3. I don't know about hardware, but I do know that the pickups for the mustangs were bought at American Musical Supply and if any hardware was purchased, it was likely purchased there at that time.Knatti wrote: ↑Mon Aug 23, 2021 4:27 am
We have two non Gotoh ABR-1 style bridges on Skystang II & III that could be Gibsons and two Gibson Nashville Tune-O-Matic / Schaller GTM bridges on Oranj-Stang and Skystang I. If the quote is true, than there COULD be a 1990 Gotoh GE103B-T on the Compstang, but I´m 100% not sure with the footage I have.
Therefore it´s VERY likely that there is no GOTOH ABR-1 Tuneomatic bridge on Blue also. Blues Tune-O-Matic is angled and has thumbwheel height adjustment screws with small posts. Gotoh bridges back then had not to be angled, because they already had the Nashville size of 14 mm.
Should be. Despite Earnie's claims, I am 100% sure that JB went into Pat's American strat.

Yes! little too generic, would have been nice to see something never seen before.AcrylicSuperman wrote: ↑Tue Oct 12, 2021 11:49 amAnyone else extremely disappointed with this unlisted Fender video?
