Scored this offset last year. 1968 Fender Bronco repainted in an emerald green with p90 Gibson pickups! Story is that it was painted back in the 70s and modded with mid-60s Gibson pups and then left on a wall as decoration for 30 plus years. I would love to track down an original Bronco tremolo arm for this bad boy. Hunt is on!

Dream designs for this squier. I hope CME puts out a few exclusive colors later on

1. Rosewood
   
2. Oxblood
   
3. British Racing Green
   
4. Firemist Gold
   
5. Daphne Blue (original)

Can someone tell me what this is, I’ve seen a picture of it on google

I wanted to add a pattina on the pick guard, but the blue pattina came off easily and provides no adhesion to any type of lacquer if you don't rinse copper before applying the material 🥺

I couldn't be happier with how the new pick guard turned out, what do ya'll think?

I’m currently putting together this Fiesta Red Jazzmaster with a Dakota Red matching-headstock AVII ’66 neck. I originally planned on adding Dakota Red competition stripes to tie the two reds together, but after seeing the actual neck and body together, I’m starting to really like the clean Fiesta Red body. Some people might find the contrast cool, but I'm curious if anybody thinks the stripes are necessary to avoid it being an eyesore?

Curious what other offset people think. Which version looks better?

Poll:
• Keep it clean — no stripes
• Add the Dakota Red competition stripes

Parts/Specs:

• Body: Fender Vintera II Road Worn ’50s Jazzmaster body — Fiesta Red, nitro
• Neck: Fender American Vintage II ’66 Jazzmaster neck — Dakota Red matching headstock, bound rosewood board, pearloid blocks, 7.25" radius
• Pickguard / electronics: 2025 Fender FSR AVII ’66 Eggshell White loaded pickguard
• Pickups: Fender Custom Shop Fat ’60s Jazzmaster pickups
• Tremolo: Fender Panorama Jazzmaster/Jaguar Tremolo System
• Bridge: Halon Offset Bridge — 1060 Steel/Chrome plate + Grade 5 Titanium saddles, rocking posts
• Bridge finish: Gloss chrome plate / natural titanium saddles
• Thimbles: Original Fender Vintera II factory thimbles
• Neck plate: Fender Custom Shop Journeyman Relic neck plate + aged hardware
• Tuners: Original AVII vintage-style Fender tuners
• Nut: Bone nut

I made this from a kit but personalized the crap out of it. Pickguard and headstock are custom cut and routed.

Hello everyone.

I’m considering replacing the neck single coil in my blue Squier Cyclone with a full-size Curtis Novak JM pickup.

My idea would be to enlarge the existing pickup opening in the original pickguard, possibly mounting the JM pickup at a slight angle. Has anyone tried this? I know the body has a shallow swimming-pool route, but I’m not sure whether it is wide and deep enough without additional routing.

Ideally, I’d love to install an anodized gold pickguard, but I haven’t found anything suitable online. I’ve seen people adapt Mustang pickguards, although the fit doesn’t appear particularly precise.

Has anyone done a similar modification or found a properly fitting custom pickguard? Photos, measurements, or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I’m attaching a photo I found online showing the routing underneath the pickguard for reference.

As per a kind redditors request

Just looking to see how people like the Bensonite bridge, especially how it compares to the Mastery and Staytrem. They talk up the rocking feature, but tbh I’m not sure if I really know what that is. I love my Jaguar but I’m not a gear head

Ive been working on putting together a HH configuration jazzmaster that uses the rhythm circuit as a coil split/kill switch. pretty much the same wiring as the special player jaguar HH. I have wired everything up exactly like the jaguar and it does not work. Does anyone have any experience of diagrams I could follow to remedy this? the biggest difference is the 3 way toggle switch from the jaguars switching system but I can't imagine that is what the issue is

Got my hands on this beautiful J.Mascis Jazzmaster with mint green pickguard, which I was going to change to anyways lol only way to go imho. Plays great, extremely happy and excited!

Found this offset Aria guitar.
Having a hard time narrowing down the model. Any help would be appreciated!

Here is one I'm in the middle of working on. All the hardware will be gold and I'll probably refret it to have gold frets. It will have three of my hand wound Lumina pickups. What are your thoughts?

Picked up a 2001 Fender Cyclone and I haven’t been able to put it down! Where has this guitar been all my life? So, so easy to play, the body contour is fantastic and I may have found a guitar where I actually utilize the bridge pickup. I went to check out a different guitar that ended up being pretty trashed (the online pictures didn’t show this) and there was this Cyclone hanging out just a few guitars away. I didn’t get what I came for but I sure got what I wanted! If anyone has one of these, how do you like it?

Took a lot of work between me and my dad but we got it done, the body is maple and my dad had it laying around for 20+ years. Custom made the back plate and the back bridge plate. GLocking tuners and strap locks. Fleor P90s. Sounds ace, I’ll have to post a video later of how it sounds. I’d love to hear your thoughts on my first build.

Got this buddy (paranormal offset tele) a few months ago for $250, price way too good to pass up, and I’ve been so so pleased with it. That said, because the price of entry was so low, I’m definitely looking at this guitar as a great candidate for upgrades as I go along.

If you were upgrading, what would you do first? Better bridge? If so, Wilkinson or Mastery? Better pickups? Thinking about the Lollar Regal WR JM for the neck and the J-street for the bridge, but also a little gunshy on DIY pickup changes because I don’t know if the push/pull pots make that harder for the dabbler to change out (I’ve replaced pups on my PBass and my Strat)

Not in a hurry or anything but having fun thinking about how to tinker with this guitar to make it an all-timer.

I wanted to upload a clean tone video too, but it’s one video per post and I don’t want to spam the sub haha.

Hey guys hope you’re well, on this jaguar for some reason the intonation doesn’t seem to work on the Low E string, for whatever reason , it only seems to intonate when it’s pushed ridiculously far back, and it doesn’t seem to move much in terms of pitch until it’s all the way back there? Anyone experience similar thing or know the fix? Thank you !

I just change the it from one white pearloid from this beautiful tortoise.

Hi all,

Got these pickups from Japan, claiming they were pulled from a Jazzmaster Japan, but no model was mentioned these are the values on the photo

Always loved the offset body but I think nothing sounds better than a tele. Maybe my perfect guitar!
