The Jag and JM will have a standard JM bridge. None of them are available yet, so they probably just haven't added the Jag to their site yet. I have a hunch they won't be officially unveiled until summer NAMM...meaning it will be late summer before we can get any of em. — Shawn Martin http://www.drummerman.net http://www.youtube.com/GKacedrummerman http://www.facebook.com/drumuitar Top
seafoam_johnny Joined: Jul 27, 2007 Posts: 1099 4 faces. (Where the buffalo roam)	Posted on Jun 02 2012 11:43 PM I'd like to see a comparison or "showdown" if you will between the vintage modified squier j/m vs the J. Mascis squier j/m on youtube. I would hope the Mascis j/m would win (yes I own one) Top

so1om Joined: May 10, 2012 Posts: 492	Posted on Jun 03 2012 08:31 PM I stand corrected on the bridge. Some people on the other forums have said that they were watching the Fender site on friday and first the mustang was up, a few hours later the jazz. but notice they only have one image, one color of them up. Not all colors of those models. So it looks like they just upload as they do them, instead of a complete upload all at once. Hopefully this week we'll see the jag.. and the guitars themselves very soon. Top

Mascis squier j/m on youtube. I would hope the Mascis j/m would win (yes I own one) Howdy... This is my first post here. As an owner of both a VM and JM Jazzmaster I can honestly say there is no "win" between the two. They're both great guitars. They're just different. Both great quality. Both feel and play great. The VM, while being the least traditional of the two has the more traditional Jazzmaster sound. Top

I expect everyone caught that and appreciate the comparison. I'm sure not very many people have both the earlier VM and J. Mascis JM. I am sure everyone hopes the new VM JM is at least as good as they are. — This is Noel. Reverb's at maximum an' I'm givin' 'er all she's got. Top

Yowza!!!! I went into Guitar Center last night and they did not have it nor know when they would get them in. I will be going to Sam Ash tomorrow or Sunday to check there. I will be buying a Jaguar and possibly another Jazzmaster. Already have the JM JM and I LOVE it. Top
