NGD Fender USA 62 RI jaguar Candy Apple Red matching headstock

As promised, a proper new guitar day post for a proper new guitar.
This is another rare bird.. all original including funcky string mute and terrible stock bridge. The serial places it from around 2000, and with the matching headstock it becomes another odd ball rarirty for the offset line as these are generally reserved for custom shop or MIJ fenders. Yamano in Japan ordered a special run of jags and jm's with matching headstocks, nitro finishes and were reputedly custom shop assembled. 50 were made of each colour (IMB, CAR, Shell pink, Olympic White and something else )
This one has CAR finish that has some orange peel, some battle wounds and the characteristic gold under coat showing in some places.
There is some medium fret wear on the lower three frets but other than that no issues. Set up great with 12-52 and a new mastery bridge.
Great buddy from the yomano jazzmaster...
