I have never had a problem with my CIJ Jag either. I too have shimmed
the neck and raised the bridge a lot. I like my action high anyways.
There is no way I will be buying a mustang bridge or buzzstop. If a
mustang bridge is given to me I might try it but if a buzzstop was
given to me I wouldn't use it. It changes the tone with the strings
being at a greater angle over the bridge. You get more sustain but
part of the Jaguar sound is not having very much angle over the
bridge. I think that is what gives the Jag the jangle it has.
