I think this guitar may give me more offset cred than I deserve :shock: It is the only offset I own, and I think the only one I want. The sound has been a revelation (Lollars), as has the trem--just wow. Tonally, it is miles away from anything else I own, which is perfect.

The neck is USAGC and it is HUGE. Would happily trade it for something less manly, especially if it was bound. (This one is not)

I think that's why I love my JM so much also - it is just so not like anything else I have.Interestingly, I don't use the trem on my JM. Not sure why, but part of it will be I don't want to mess with anything that might change how great it is, as it is now. It has been played a little.....

Photo is a bit crap but...

Jazzmaster is ex-bender, MIM 60's lacquer. Love it to bits, it's hard to imagine replacing it. The Warhawk is a recent acquisition courtesy of Oleg's emporium. Love the P90's, so much grunt but with the bass contour actually really versatile.

The pickups in that are just wonderful.

I like those too. Needs a trem though.

I've noticed these before.
Looks like it'd be hard to add a trem to it so it's a hard no for me, but I do dig the shape and colour.

Thinking about trying a new set of jag pickups in my 64. Have had the same fender classic 65s in there for five years or so now and thinking something with a bit more bit and growl , particularly in the bridge. Have lnt actually done much in the way of research as of yet. Any one with experience in after market jag pups ?

Glad you like the Rev, I have to say it looks very happy in its new abode. You must be looking after it well. :D
