I am dying to have one! I have managed to scrape up $900 to buy one, but now there is not a lot to be had. I would buy any AVRI model, or a CIJ model in either White or Surf Green! I did see the post on here for the Jag and JM by PhatTele, but I don't have anything else to sell to make up the difference that he is asking for. Anyone looking to sell one can email me at jukedaddy @ gmail.com Thanks, Josh |

Dude, $85 bucks more and you can have an AVRI shipped to your door. See 2 ads down or so... |

You are absolutely right! My problem is finances and family! I am on a very extremely tight budget and literally have sold and scraped to get the $900 that I currently have. |

$85 is such a small difference in quality for CIJ for AV. When $300 is in the equation then buying an AV or CIJ can be debated, but not paying $85 more for an AV is stupidity. The whole buy a CIJ thing started when they were $500. This is no longer the case. |

I agree wholeheartedly! I don't imagine that this guitar will still be available by the time I can some up with the additional $85. Hence my original post. If, by some chance that the guitar that PhatTele posted is still available in 2 to 3 weeks I will more than likely jump on it. I am fishing for other opportunities in my current price range however. $85 dollars isn't, and at the same time is, a lot of money |

$85 is a lot to me and I cringe when I have to spend any money, but I have owned 3 CIJs and 1 AV Jag. I don't own the CIJs anymore but the AV is going to be around a long time. |

Give blood or plasma, or sperm or something! I would have let you borrow 40$, jeez. Also, you can stall auctions I mean buy the item then you get 24hrs to contact seller then another 24 to pay for the item. You dont always have to pay right away some sellers will give you a few days easily. Seriously though, save another 100$ so your budget is 1,000$ and you will be able to get one off the 'bay in no time. |

Don't suggest a Mustang upon the poor guy. I'm sure he's already suffering enough without owning a Jag or Jazz. In anaheim $600 CIJ Jag In Fresno $950 AV Jazz You can always ask them to ship the guitar if you aren't close enough. |

Aaah Jake. Some things you have to be farther along down life's road to understand. Sometimes the question isn't AVRI "or" CIJ. Sometimes it's Mustang "and" Washing machine "or" pissed off Wife |

what kinda a wife, CIJ or AVRI? seriously, with the us prices, buying CIJ/MIJ jags or JM's doesn't make any sense. —Rules to live by #314: |

Well! I just came into some more mooolaaa! I have $1100 now. I broke down and sold something that I wanted to hold on to, but I weighed the true value and am making no ruffles in my life so... If some one out there has an AVRI Jaguar or JM they are selling let me know! I have given up on the CIJ idea and want the real deal! I actually was offered a '72 Jaguar for $1700, but that is way outside of my budget |
