Re: PSA: Squier CV 60s Jag
So - after an hour of cleaning, sanding, wetsanding with oil, steel wool with oil, and buffing, I got it looking better. Still got a huge light area on the high strings: http://i.imgur.com/VQyZjxW.jpg Overall, the dusty look is almost gone. It's still covered in file marks (you can see the high E ed...

Re: PSA: Squier CV 60s Jag
Yep. I have to stop taking photos on that charcoal grey carpet, it makes everything look weird. Renting so not what I would have chosen. The XII looks rosewood-y but could use an oil.

Re: PSA: Squier CV 60s Jag
Thomann were very decent about it and offered me a discount around 15%. Since it’s fully functional and can likely be made better looking, I’ve accepted that.

Re: PSA: Squier CV 60s Jag
For comparison, here's the XII headstock (same lighting same phone camera). The fit and finish are spectacularly good - high end Fender quality, just about.

PSA: Squier CV 60s Jag
Thomann sent me a Paranormal JM XII and a Charcoal Frost CV 60s Jaguar. Arrived today. Here's the Jag fretboard.

Re: NGD: SubZero Rogue VI
That burst and body finish really is beautiful, I wish I could buy these in Australia just for that.

Re: NGD: SubZero Rogue VI
Wow - that is fantastic work on the neck. End result looks great! I’d be interested to see a white or off-white pickguard on it.

Re: And another: derelict MIJ Mustang
By coincidence I'm pretty sure it was 95% beer and sweat, as soon as I rubbed at it it came right off.

Re: WTF Esquire shortbass
Authentic it’s not, but a 10k single coil is its own thing, and sounds very woody and breathy which I love. If I need deeper bass there’s always the Squier 50s P or the HARD PUNCHER.

Re: WTF Esquire shortbass
Also sounds a lot like an acoustic bass which I’m really enjoying.
