One thing I do notice that's different on the new pawnshop mustangs is that the trussrod is adjustable at the headstock...mine doesn't have that

If Fender wants to go off the beaten path, why don't they make a Jaguar with Jaguar pickups?

I still don't understand the argument that because it has "Jag" in the name it should have such and such tremolo and have switches. How about you ... i don't know... GO BUY A JAGUAR. This is a Jaguarillo. NOT A JAGUAR. It is not hip to your traditionalist jaguar bullshit.

Agree, well, that and the simple fact that the Fender offset guitars were pretty much all ignored and laughed at for so long that traditionalism being applied to them is sort of funny to me still.
"What's that piece of shit" really was the summary of the market for so long, and it's partially because stock, the things aren't what people expect.
Now, I love me a good stock offset, but they're much more prone to significant improvements via mods than any Strat, LP, SG, or Tele I've ever played.

i don't really think they need "improving," but the short-scale guitars are really fertile beds for modification. to me, a shorter scale makes the differences between types of pickups more apparent. the Mustang Special in particular impresses me in the demo above. i note for the record the extent to which the guitar demos lean on bitonal shoegazey chords...they know where the market is for modified offsets.

The pickups in the Mustang Specials absolutely come alive when used with a lot of dirt. They're made for fuzz heavy 'gaze. Pity no trem

Can get the same pickups (Enforcers) without the covers in the Classic Player Jag HH (the one with trem, not the funky black no trem thing) and short scale, and yes, they are amazing.

Totally didn't know it was enforcers in those. Other guitarist in my band plays one too. Yeah, they rock.
