Wasting internet space since 1996

The Fender Jaguar

Tuesday Nov 7, 2006

When I get bored, I go on the Internet and online-window-shop. This is the number one item on my Lust List.


The Fender Jaguar HH
Beauti-fucking-ful

I have no clue what Dragsterâ„¢ humbucking pickups are and what an Adjusto-maticâ„¢ bridge with anchored tailpiece does but I am so in love, I want to steal one and make gorgeous little guitar babies with it.

Unfortunately, I don’t have $999.99 so I’m stuck with my vintage Eko for now.

My uncle bought the Eko some twenty years ago, at a garage sale of an American family who was moving back to the States. He gave it to me when I was fifteen and couldn’t string two chords together to save my life. When I got it from him it was all rusted up so I had the parts replaced–but not with original Eko parts though. So I guess what I have right now is a faux-vintage guitar that sounds slightly off-key no matter how much I tune it. Well, it serves its purpose and has been very good to me.

But someday, I shall own that Fender Jaguar.
