I love this colour, somewhere between green and blue metallic, depending on the light...

here is my all-time-favourite Jaguar in action:

It's just showing that they're made in the USA. New Rickenbackers have them too. They come off real easily though.

I really like that colour.
I like ice blue metallic a bit more though, but I get the two mixed up quite a bit for some reason.

I have an AVRI Jaguar and it did come with a set of Fender flats. To the best of my knowledge, all of them do. It's just a shame they didn't string them up with them from the factory and put the rounds in the case  ;D

I like to call her Scooter :D

and the flats that came in the case really turned me on to flatwounds. I wish they weren't so expensive!

I had a Blues Deluxe before, about 8 years ago. I kept it for around 5 I think. It was a pretty nice sounding amp. I think I sold it when I bought one of my first Orange heads.

I like the Thomastik Infield flats a lot, but for the price, I think the D'Addario chrome flats are a pretty good compromise of price, sound, and feel.

OT's a great color, but the white pickguard looks awful.  Put a tortie on it and it'd be just about perfect.
