Although I like the sound of the Strat better, I think you should keep the Jagmaster. Those are harder to come by, whereas Strats and Hot Rails are nearly everywhere always.
I’d keep the Jagmaster since this r harder to find and way more unique. For mods I’d like to see coil-splitting on push pull pots for both bridge and neck.
I say keep the Jagmaster. The Strat sounds great with the hotrail, but I much prefer the looks of the JM. That offset shape looks so cool in my opinion, the most comfortable shape to play I'd say.
Keep Jagmaster it's a lot harder to come by. I don't know about mods it seems good already, sounds good too. Maybe red pearl pickguard or SD humbucker.
I'm trying to see it through your eyes and heart....you seem to have a real love for the jagmaster. We might be the viewers. But you are the musician. And I think I would much rather you play an instrument for us that you have a greater affinity for..because when you play it for us. You will play it with all your heart. And that leads to better music! I've played instruments that I didn't love. And if you can't get behind it. What's the point l?
biggest question is which you like more… but my take? jagmaster, switch to brown tort pickguard and jag chrome control /output jack plate… maybe add coil splitting?
I have the identical Black Jagmaster with the 24" scale neck that I picked up in 2019 for around $120 USD. The neck feels amazing, it's a keeper in my book and here in the US they are fetching over $300+ because they are rare overlooked Squiers that have been recently discovered. To me it's a no brainer to keep it and sell the Strat IMHO
Keep the Jagmaster as they're rare and pricier. I've been looking since I saw a certain video..no names. You can always mod another Strat. Affinity Strats are in abundance and cheap as chips. How about 2 splittable chrome-covered humbuckers and a dark brown tortoise pickguard? Cheers!
Jagmaster is harder to acquire and there's been lots of strats on the channel.. So that's an easy pick! I would like to see some refinishing/home made relicing on it 👌🎨
(chants) Keep the Strat-Keep the Strat!! A mod I would like to see is the Seymour Duncan Liberator. The sad truth is-there are no detailed close up vids-even on their own site of a proper step by step installation-which is sad. 'Fess up brother-you're keeping both and merging in to one-Behold the Strato-Mastahhhh!!! ;)
You've probably already made your decision but I'd keep the jagmaster. Hard to find and it just rocks out. Looks great and amazing alternative to the overpriced Cobain jagstang fender are selling at the moment.
From what I saw in the video, it looks like you are connecting with the Jag a lot more than you are the modded Strat. It is a personal choice for yourself, though if you are down to only two guitars I would always suggest to keep them both, as variety is useful in helping keep people interested when it comes to musical instruments. I am not saying never get rid of a guitar, I am just saying always try to keep a couple.. Though I am wondering what happened to all those guitars you have reviewed within the last couple years, surely the company's didn't make you give them all back once you reviewed all of them did they? Anyway, if you are forcing yourself down to one guitar, the only suggestion I would honestly have is to do a giveaway if you can. If you are trying to just get some extra money then of course it is always your choice to sell which ever guitar, but everyone loves a giveaway. I mean, to save money you could do a local country give away or something, as not a lot of people are likely to have the money to pay to ship it over seas. Of course you could do a massive reshaping type project on the guitar you chose not too keep. By that I mean you could experiment with sanding off the finish and cutting off the top or bottom or both horns on the strat or something like that. You could even modify the headstock by stripping the finish off of it and gluing a block on the backside and reshaping the headstock to have a slight back tilt so that you don't need string trees.. Or any number of major things you could do with it really.. I mean, you can set up some kind of way that would allow you to move a single pickup from the bridge position to the neck position without taking off the pickguard and such, just so you can experiment with pickup placement to figure out exactly where you like your pickups on the exact scale of the guitar its self.. .... Okay, I think I am rambling now, do what ever it is you think is best, and keep up the good work.
Is it a Japan Vista Jag? The build on these is absolute custom shop level. If is a CIJ, I would hang onto for dear life. If it is China or Indo Jag then nothing special And I’d keep the Strat for sure.
Strat fo sho... actually the more I think about it, the Jagmaster is harder to come by so keeping that is not a bad option. White Strats and hotrails are easily replaced.
Strat definitely. I love the Hot Rails in the bridge of my main Strat, you can't go wrong with that!

I would go with jagmaster, a little more versatile and it’s less common than the strat.
and 24" scale offset goodness 🎸💯👌😎
I'd say keep the strat it looks and sounds amazing!
Oh she is a looker 👌💯🎸
Deffo keep the Cobain Strat it just sounds soo much better with the Hot Rails.
Keep Jagmaster it's a lot harder to come by. I don't know about mods it seems good already, sounds good too. Maybe red pearl pickguard or SD humbucker.

Keep both, buy another.
Keep the jagmaster! Though the real answer is keep both
I'd keep whichever plays better. And if it's a tie I'd keep the jag cause it's cool :)
biggest question is which you like more… but my take? jagmaster, switch to brown tort pickguard and jag chrome control /output jack plate… maybe add coil splitting?
Id say keep the jagmaster. Still can get the Cobain Tone from the jagmaster. Maybe swap a super distortion into the bridge?
I think that the strat is more iconic
Both nice but I'd keep the JM, looks sweet in black and white and it's something just a bit different. Looking forward to hear the big news.
I would keep the jag. Possibly upgrade the pickups and I think a chromed or stainless pick guard would look sweet on it
Can I buy the hot rail one

Strat! More versatile and you can drop the tuning put a capo on the first fret to have a kind of 24 inch scale
I reckon you should go with the kurt Cobain strat it's worth more, but the jagamster is also more versatile but I reckon the strat is way to go
I would keep the jagmaster it seems a little harder to replace

Jag for sure
Sell the strat. You won't find cheap Jag body everyday. Strat does!
If I only had one guitar, it would be a strat. But that's me. It's really up to you.
Loving what you do buddy, keep them all 🤣🤣
Jagmaster for sure
Keep the jag - it is more unique 😎 ... Ebay is full of cheap and good playing strats. Jagmaster is a pure grunge-master 😎
Partial to the strats. But hell I love these both. Hahaha.
You should keep the Jag!!!
Jagmaster. WAY cooler than a strat
Jagmaster is harder to acquire and there's been lots of strats on the channel.. So that's an easy pick! I would like to see some refinishing/home made relicing on it 👌🎨
Strat with the hot rail
dude keep the strat! give it some funky colors. its already white you could get pretty creative
Keep the Jaag !
Your video’s sound are on point! What chord is that at 3:15??
Thanks dude glad you dig it, just an open e chord
Which one plays aneurysm the best
Either or 🤣💯🎸
Jagmaster for sure. With a tort pickguard that would look killer.
Yeah that's been my thinking 👌🎸
If the secret news are a giveaway, then keep the strat and give me the jagmaster😁😁😁
🤣🤣 I like your style but no unfortunately 🎸😜
The Jagmaster is fancier but that Strat sounds 🔥! I’d keep both lol
Keep the jagmaster
It’s jangle vs twang/quack. I prefer the jag master maybe add a Tele bridge in the middle and add parallel and series switch

Keep the strat💥🔥
jagmaster
I would keep both and sell the brown leather chair they are resting on instead.
The chair is worth more than both guitars put together 🤣💰
You've probably already made your decision but I'd keep the jagmaster. Hard to find and it just rocks out. Looks great and amazing alternative to the overpriced Cobain jagstang fender are selling at the moment.
I'll buy that Jagmaster off your hands if you decide to part with it!
I reckon it’s time for you to get the tools out and build your own guitar shape mate!
I like the strat better
man if i had the money i would definitely get a jagmaster. maybe in my next alter life haha

Which one sounds and plays better?
Edit: after listening to the outro again, I say jm.
Both play great, watch the end of the video for demos of both guitars
@@theguitarmanifesto definitely the JM. Strats are a dime a dozen.
Is it a Japan Vista Jag? The build on these is absolute custom shop level. If is a CIJ, I would hang onto for dear life. If it is China or Indo Jag then nothing special And I’d keep the Strat for sure.
I would keep Kurts guitar... But it's up to you I believe you have a preference better than me cause you have played with them , I don't 😂
heart says cobain strat! Head says Jagmaster!
Jagmaster, simples.
Did I miss the news? Have u announced anything yet rob??
I posted in the community section of my homepage
@@theguitarmanifesto stop teasing us haha what's the surprise I cant find anything in the community section
It's on there 6 days ago
@@theguitarmanifesto where!!??
Keep the Jag for sure
I'd honestly keep the Jag the way it is
jagmaster! :D
if u don’t have another strat. keep the strat. i think u have a few offsets so i would keep the strat
I've cleared the lot now 😊
The Jagmasters are starting to fetch collector prices in the U.S./on Reverb...so, just sayin'
Id say keep the kurt strat
Is that a 1996 Squier Strat? If so then keep it
Keep the Strat
Keep the Jag and put a rythm circuit
You love nirvana dude, you gotta keep the strat. Personally I like the jag better but follow your heart rob.
Strat
Keep the Kurt strat looks better and Kurt is the best
Keep the Jagmaster. Strats are so basic and you look like you really don't want to let the Jag go anyway
Keep the cobain stray if not I will buy it off you
Strat fo sho... actually the more I think about it, the Jagmaster is harder to come by so keeping that is not a bad option. White Strats and hotrails are easily replaced.
Keep both. Sell your wife!
Kurt cobain strat
Get rid of both, there are lots of new great guitars you can buy ;)
Most of which I've owned and reviewed on the channel 🤣
