Here is my latest creation. It's a loaded American Standard Jaguar bass body with the addition of a Status jazz neck with Gotoh Resolite tuners.

I had to do a little more work on the heal of the neck pocket for this one but it was well worth it. Sounds great, looks a little different from the average p or j bass. Initial impression was that the bass is very, very punchy. Still getting to grips with the controls.





Starting to think I have a problem!!!!

Looks cool. Aren't the Jags short scale though? Just thought the Status neck might be a touch too long. Still if it was I suppose you could just move the bridge back a bit!

No, the new American Standard Jaguar isn't short scale. I don't think the MIJ Jaguar is either. But you are correct that some of them are like the one with the reverse headstock. I just had to round the corners a little in the pocket for a snug fit.

extra fret. right?

Jag shape is not my favourite, at all, but you're right: something different from Js or Ps.
