Re: NGD: 1976 (?) Jazzmaster project - page 3 IT'S HERE!

Post by Pacafeliz » Fri Jul 25, 2014 5:21 pm

no love so far, huh? SNOBS!!!!

what is this, the gear page?! ::)

anyways... i've used up 1.5 liter of thinner and i'm kinda high (really)!
i didn't quite finish it all but that can wait.

now i strung it up and all, works, sounds and even feels heavenly!


and... it didn't turn out too bad, huh?

SCREAMS 70s! :w00t:

once more, i hit gold. at least i feel like it!

Image
YES it's actually CANDY APPLE RED!!! NEVER seen a jazzer so late in CAR!

Image
yeah the pickguard's broken, and i wasn't able to remove some yellow stains. might get a new one or just paint over it. or leave it.

Image
i still have to finish the back. i've used NO sand paper so far.
and there's a reason why they refinned it...

Image
it has MASSIVE wear on the sides and bottom. me likey!

Image
finally a shot with flash.

once i finish rubbing the black color off, i'll get it nicely polished, as the CAR has suffered a bit with all these years of paint (and grey primer!) on it... and then the hours of thinner rubbing on/against it.

well i think that was QUITE a deal for $750, huh?!

now i'll get a pizza and some beer.
cheers! ;D
i love delay SO much ...that i procrastinate all the time.

I love the aesthetic of 70s jazzmasters. Great find!

Nice score Pat ... but why the hell would anyone do all that damage to a CAR Jazzmaster!?!

Do you think that perhaps the blocked were removed, board planed and then replaced with dots? Or are you sure it was a full replacement...

no idea. i'll post pics but it actually doesn't look like a too bad job (except for the dot markers).
i'd have to remove the binding to check.

btw, i think the binding might actually still be the original one! :derp:
