Hello.

I have been documenting this project on the offsetguitars forum. Some of you may have already seen my project, but I'd thought I'd share it with Jagstang.com.

Here's just a few pics of it's construction.

The body is alder. I bought the timber off Ebay from America.

The template is from guitarbuildngtemplates.com. These templates are not 'Fender-accurate', I think they are copied from Warmoth. The shape itself is fine, but the neck and body cavities needed a bit of adjusting.

It fits the US jazzmaster pickguard which I bought from Dazbootman. Just w/b/w. I may upgrade to brown tortoishell.

The neck is from allparts. It's an amazing neck. 7 1/4" radius. I stained it, sprayed it with gloss auto acrylic. The decal is from decaljoe. I would have liked to have built my own neck with the correct Jazzmaster design , but I don't have the time.

I finished the body with Auto acrylic. I have used this colour before with the Musicmaster project I made a while ago. It polished up nicely. It's very fragile paint, but keeps the shine.

I'm just waiting on the electronics, but so far I'm very happy with it.
