You damn racist! Juan Williams just got fired from his anchor spot on NPR radio for saying less than that....

See what I mean?

you seem to have a very poor grasp on economics, politics, ethics, musical instruments, etc the list just goes on and on.... leave and come back once you get your head out of your arse

Personal opinion ONLY but based on long experience:

An American Standard or American Reissue Strat/Jaguar feels and plays and sounds deliciously (to this American player).

An MIM 50s Strat feels very, very much like an old MIA but with much less "true Fender" vibe.

An MIJ Jazzmaster is a splendid guitar but feels somewhat sterile. AVRI Jazzmaster pups helped a lot, but now it feels like a "mixed race."

I can't see how they can pass off a humbucker equipped guitar as a Jag. What made the Jaguar so unique was the wonderful sound of its single coil pups and that comfortable short scale neck.My '65 Jaguar is a true Jaguar the Blacktops are kind of like Les Pauls in a Jaguar body.

This thread is going nowhere fast and, quite honestly, isn't that interesting either. A few comments in this thread that are totally inappropriate here and I've noted them. In the interim, locking the thread.
