I want to see an ALL WHITE JAg-STang haha. Olympic white with a white perloid pickguard. Thatd be cool.

Fran

Im tempted to refin one of mine White w/black guard, i think it would give a classy Johnny Ramone vibe about it.

Hello everyone !

I'm new around here.

I just bought 97' Jagstang in totally bad condition for 250 . What a rip off. I couldn't see that it was in such a bad condition from pictures. I'll post some pics later today. Anyway, I contacted a local guitar tech and he said he'll have to make new body, change the frets and so on. It would cost me around 500 . Do you think it's worth it ?

Edit : picture

Picture hides a lot of mistakes. Finish is super bad, body is deformed,....

And I will never understand how can seller send guitar without cleaning it.

250 euro? Even if it is a beater with some paint on, I think its a pretty good deal. You could simply respray the body and do any modifications. The frets can be either replaced, or levelled and dressed, I'd go for the latter as it is cheaper.

And 500EU is way too much for that, that's pretty much the value of the guitar all original and mint. It should cost about 150EU to do the work I suggested.

And the dark blue looks really cool imo 😀

And welcome to the forum 😉

NathanStang75

Yeah welcome.

Looks nice but like you said, photo hides problems.

Just how bad is it? Is it unplayable? To warrant the entire body needing replacement i was expecting a disaster but it looks fine.

Jean

Thank You !

Even I like finish from photo but in reality it looks like it was painted with Revell colors and brush.

Here are more detailed photos :

You can see that pickguard is little off.

Frets needs to be changed. There are also few holes on fretboard which cant be seen on photo.

On few parts body is sanded to deep.... How much do you guys think I could get for this body on ebay ?

Guitar was playable when it came but volume potentiometer must be replaced, only one pickup was wired and I wont start talking about setup....

I would pay 500 for new body, professional finish, new frets, new wires, setup and everything what needs to be done.

I'm not really up on money conversions, whats that work out at in sterling?

I checked the other day, and 500EU is about 460

Pound's pretty wek.

NathanStang75

Thats a lot of money for a new body, fret dress and a set up.

Here is mine, i bought it in 2004, and it's still MINT today, i take real good care of it 😀

Bridge pickup is a Seymour Duncan JB. Neck pickup is a Dimarzio virtual vintage.

NathanStang75

Lovely.

Interesting knob choice. 😡

I'm getting a witch hat for mine very soon. 😉

Fran

Welcome Jean and Nicolas 😁

Jean- That actually looks very cool, just get the frets sorted out and accept it for what it is. If you want a museum piece just get another on ebay, im positive one will eventually come up for less than 500 euro.

P.S. 250 is'nt bad for what it is.
