Title: NGD!!!!
Post by: jimilee on May 04, 2017, 08:25:08 PM
I hate FedEx, but I loved my new jazzmaster opal special edition. I'd been looking at them because they're so pretty, then they all disappeared, and I got apparently the last one ever, short of the two on reverb. 2 blacktop pickups and a push pull tone knob to split them to the outside 2. I cranked it on my lunch break for about 10 minutes and had to go back to work.

Looks excellent I hope you enjoy it Jimi.  Is it white?  It's hard to tell in the pic any chance of a daylight picture at some point?

Sweet looking guitar Jimi.  It's tough to go wrong with an offset ;).

Nice.
I thought you played bass.
What are up to like 74 guitars now?  :P ;D

I do, got a bunch of them too. The total is now 35, but who's counting.

Oh wow, I'm not even sure how that would work or how long that would take to set up. I'm still in the process of photographing each one for insurance.

I understand you're practically neighbors, so I believe you.

Good question.

Does 35 include the basses?

Ask Curtis where he keeps 1/5 of his collection, and you'll have your answer.  ;D

I'm not sure to be totally honest with you. I have 9 basses I think, but I can't remember if that's including or addition to.  They are stored everywhere in my apartment, under beds, closets several corner and hanging on the wall. It's insanity to be totally honest with you, nobody needs this many guitars.

I thought something along those lines as well.  ;-)

Cool guitar, Jimi.  Congrats!

Very Underrated Guitars. You can go from Beach Boys to Dinosaur Junior to Elvis Costello in a heart beat

Right, I was looking at the j.mascus model, but this one was more gritty.
