If you’re looking for a brief history check out our blog post from 2 years ago on the 10th anniversary.

We’re working on a site re-design at this time which we hope to have in place by the end of the year. Not knowing what issues there may  be a more accurate date can’t be set.  There are no plans for any changes to the forum, other than maybe the look.

While it’s not one of the guitars that has it’s own section here at jag-stang.com we do have a strong affinity for the Jazzy.

It’s very likely that if there was no Fender Jazzmaster there would be no Fender Jaguar and thus no Fender Jag-Stang ! And oh how sad that would make us! :-)

Are you a current or former Jazzmaster owner? We would love to hear your thoughts on the jazzy and how it influenced your playing over the years in the comments to this post.
