in the new Moog video, we can hear the new signature Jazzy
the GAS is strong with this video, but for me, with the guitar in particular
Oh the gas! The guitar, that drive, delay, and ring! So much want!

He was using the black Jazz at ACL this last weekend and I'm sure he'll use it again this weekend...

I went thru three exchanges to get a decent one. First one had an unusable neck angle, second had a split in the body starting from the f-hole, even the final keeper had a dead middle pickup which Yamaha quickly replaced. Finish was good on all, looked real pretty, but they were pretty hit or miss in terms of build quality. I'd say you got lucky.

Damn, that sucks........I must have been lucky, because mine was flawless.
Sorta regret selling it.
That said this Jazz looks great.

Them's is sexy!
I modeled my EGC Chessie after that TVL Yamaha honestly only with Mustang Special switching options. Aesthetics lean heavily towards that Yamaha tho, trying to make it into the guitar I always wished it was.

errrr.... Stupid Mexican bridge placement. Way to ruin an awesome looking Jazzmaster. Fucking Fender and moving that bridge, when will they fucking learn!
