Yes, all work was done by me. It was a Sonic Blue Squier VM Jazzmaster. I changed it to Ocean Turq and reliced all the parts and body out. I used a bunch of techniques off the internet and listening to Fender Custom Shop gurus.
Glad you like!
;D

Did you swap out the stock neck? What is this actually? A vintage one?

I did the same basic mod/upgrades as Fullerplast. The only thing left that is Squier is the body. I've played Jazzmasters and Strats since the 60s and never played a Jag so I went with the Squier to give it a try and I loved it. I have to admitt that for $299 Squier's can't be beat. BTW, I already had 90% of the upgrade parts from previous projects.

He's posted pictures of the other guitar before... Pretty sure he built it himself. It's like a hybrid Jazzmaster and 72 Telecaster Custom. A Telemaster Custom, if you will. He could probably offer more details than that, though.

And yeah, I'm curious about the Jag's neck too. At first, I just dismissed it as a CBS styled Strat neck, but that wouldn't work because of the scale length. I'm guessing it's from some MIJ/CIJ Mustang that came with a maple fretboard? Or maybe a custom/aftermarket replacement? I don't know if I've ever seen any Fender-made Jaguars that offer a maple fretboard, but who knows, there are way too many Fender Japan concotions out there to keep tabs on them all.
