I love the Jazzmaster/Jaguar shape! But I would like the longer neck of the JM, but with humbuckers of the Jag. I want sunburst with black finger plate, and whammy bar also. I don't wanna pay a fortrune, so Squier is fine, otherwise cheaper-range Fender.

Sorry I am noob, coming from cheap made-in-Indonesia Ibanezes ha... getting sick of Strat shape. I play punk/distortion etc.

Thank you! :P

If you want over-all value for money I highly recommend the American Special Stratocaster. Easily the most affordable American made Fender -and the gruntiest sounding with Texas Specials under the hood....who could ask for more???!!! :)

Does anybody see a disconnect here?

Pawn Shop Jaguarillo
Pawn Shop Supersonic (new from NAMM 2013)
Blacktop Jags and Stangs

All of these have either Vintage Hot Alnico 5 humbuckers or Enforcers.

And for even less dough there are the "Crafted in China" Modern Players Mustangs... I think they all have p-90s.

You have several choices, but all will require modification. There's the Squier Vintage Modified Jazzmaster (made in Indonesia), and the Fender Blacktop and Classic Player Jazzmasters. You'll have to add humbuckers (except for the Blacktop, in which you'll only add one). You'll need to get a custom pickguard cut.

The Squier is probably your best bet.
