Diffidentia Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Looking good! I've always had a bit of love/hate relationship with the Jazzmaster shape. I think it's the lower horn, or the lack of, that puts me off more than on. Love the ash in the neck. Lovely figure! Now, if only we had something like that in Norway....
