Offsets, Single Coils, Hardtails. What is there?

UnclePsychosis · August 2016

So whats out there that's offset/surfy, has single coils (P90s very much welcome) but has a nice sensible hardtail trem?

I have an itch what needs a scratch. Maybe.

Cheap there's this Harley Benton.

Reverend probably has something on those lines, or there's one of the Chinese Jags (Modern player, I think), or the American Special JM

UnclePsychosis · August 2016

The modern player jag looks pretty sweet.

They must've done a P90 Mustang with a hardtail too?

The new Mustangs
Reverend Warhawk
Fano offer some more high-end options

How much do you want to spend. My trans red Fender Jaguar Modern Player with P90s is a bit superfluous at the moment. Definitely a hard tail and pretty damn good too. Tiny chip on the headstock, otherwise unmarked. Bargainous.

Erm...?

I'm just finishing a tele special in limba with a wraptail and p90's, I'll get some pics and clips up may be next week if it's ready, that might get close

I'm also making a top loading hardtail strat in limba

Worth a listen for comparisons anyway.

Fender American Special Jazzmaster if you get still get them... the current ones have a Bigsby but the original version had a stop tailpiece.

I'm 95 percent sure those pickups are humbuckers in those. I seem to recall osg getting overly angry about that guitar

Right this minute? Nothing. I am just looking for ideas worth saving and scrimping for!

Those new Mustangs are pretty damn cool, I'd forgotten about those. I love the aesthetic of the Reverend but am put off by the "meh" comments that Reverend seem to attract these days. Fano are nice but £££££££££££ so probably not!

JohnPerry · August 2016

The Revs are way better than meh, especially for the money. The bass contour control is a great trick too. And i speak as someone with three Jags, one more than John Prescott
