Try playing a 90's reissue Duo Sonic.

This.

i don't understand how these make you seem like a poser

I dunno.. I wasn't trying to be a hater, it just seems like you'd buy one because you want to imitate Kurt Cobain or something.

It seems to be specifically copying Kurt's Mustang to me. That's where I get the poserish vibe

What gave it away? The fact that it comes with a free Nirvana record?
I don't see anyone catching flack for playing a J. Mascis Jazzy. Play what you want. If you really want to play a repro of Kurt's mustang, I say, "More power to you."
I see playing a sig guitar and ripping off someone's music two as totally different things.

I say none of this in hate, just my opinion.

I know I know

It just seems like buying one of these and being a poser would go hand in hand more often than not.

Pretty accurate. People lose their shit over the Mascis, Marr, and Sonic Youth sigs but come out bashing anything tied to Nirvana.....

I'd be interested to see the reaction to a Kevin Shields sig.

I only hate it because it doesnt have a matching hs. These have been out in japan for a minute. Last time i was there i played one and didnt even think about the nirvana connection.

This is a perfectly legitimate reason to hate any new Fender offset. Match those goddamn headstocks Fender!

I don't like that racing stripe shit myself but hey, to each his own...

Fuck that. Gimme Belinda. Sparkly red on red with a jag trem...

The guitar would be pretty hawt too.

Already had that for a while.



Except mine is a very manly color suitable for framing and is a genuine pawn shop special.

My first electric was a Jag-Stang I got when I was almost 14. I still rock it every now and then. Not ashamed one bit. Oh, and I think these guitars look pretty good too. Didn't care for the reliced Jag though.

I think most people see it as cashing in on the tragedy of someone's death.

(personally I thought the purple J Mascis Jazz was sort of ass)

Not for the color. It sounded like shit.

Also, your mother.
