Vintage white Jaguar, with tortoise shell pick guard. Set up for surf rock. I bought this in Japan, while stationed overseas with the Navy--June, 2011. This guitar plays like a champ. I had it set up by my go-to-guitar-guy ($65 Value). I have to tell you, that made all the difference. It was a great guitar before he got to it, but now it's an excellent guitar. This thing plays wonderfully and everything about it is now spot-on: intonation, feel, neck, etc. It's a beauty too--classic surf guitar look. MIJ CIJ Made in Japan.
This includes all of the case candy: receipt in Japanese, tags, authentication certificate (in Japanese characters (Kanji) and some English). This guitar is strung up with flat wound, since I was using it mostly for surf rock. I have it set up with a mustang bridge since they are more durable, but I'll include the original bridge with it. Comes with whammy bar and a Fender gig bag. Minor wear as comes with regular playing. No dings or scratches. Light scuffing to chrome.
I love Japanese made guitars. The quality rivals (if not exceeds) that of their US equivalents at nearly half the cost.
I have this listed on EBAY for $1,200, but am open to offers.

If this link doesn't work, simply copy subject line in an ebay search and it's the first listing that pops up. Thanks!!! Any question feel free to ask me here or on ebay.
Oh, and I'm selling it because I switched to a Sonic Blue Mustang (Made in Japan). Can't afford to have my Jaguar gathering dust in its case.

Just trying to help you out.
Japanese Jag's don't rival the US AVRI guitars and $1200 is just never going to sell. It is rare to see an AVRI sell for $1200. I checked the completed auctions on ebay and there were a bunch of AVRIs going for under $1000. CIJs are selling for $500-$700. There are a few that are over that price but that have expensive hard shell cases and upgraded electronics. Matching headstocks and binding also garner larger prices. Since yours is just white without a matching headstock it is going to be in the $500-$700 price range at auction.
Definitely use the completed auctions to set a price that is more for you to be able to sell it.
Also, you listed the guitar under the Mandolin section of ebay. Most people won't see your guitar since they filter by guitar so they don't see all of the parts for the guitars or car parts.

Also, you can fix the link by just copying the ebay URL, you grabbed the SG101 url instead of the ebay url. Just swap the URLs when you edit the post.

Thanks for the tips! Didn't want to list it too low. People are always free to make as low or as high of an offer as they want, and I am free to accept or reject. This particular model is priced around that range.

And it will cost more than 20.00$ to ship. 35.00$ is usually the rough figure in my own experiences with optional insurance.
