That’s some nice metalflake. I didn’t know that they had that finish available.

I didn't either until I saw it for sale on eBay. I think I bought after about 12 hours of the listing and 60+ watchers.
I think this was offered as FSR (Fender Special Run) and they offered this blue one and a gold champagne.
They of course offered the silver sparkle for some time, but not considered a FSR.
All of the Squier Jaguar sparkle finishes are no longer available, bur I hear rumors about new ones for 2025.
The painted headstock is definitely a game changer!

The last thing I need is another guitar, but a metalflake Squier CV would be tempting.

Yea, that's exactly what I said too.
And when those champagne gold ones come back, I'll be in line!
Actually I would only hope for a Coke bottle green one.

It’s a mathematical law.

IceratzSurf - the blue sparkle Jag is amazing, but so is the tiki themed strap you have on it!

Thanks! I like the Tiki strap a lot!
I customized the length to my Jaguar, remove all the buckles and then handstitch the leather ends back on.
I also sew a neoprene layer for the half that sits on my shoulder, it makes for padding and non-slip.
