You are not a nerd, Chris. You are a Golden God amongst mere mortal men.
Hi Chris! Beautiful guitar! I'm here because I am in the middle of a partscaster Jag assembly myself.
About the orientation of the pickup claws, this is what I have "learned" through reading forums and articles online (I realize this info could be wrong, but I don't have any better at the moment):
1. Real vintage Fender Jaguars appear to almost uniformly have the cut-off teeth on the low E and A string.
2. There is a 1967 Fender schematic that places the cut-off teeth on the E and B strings.
3. Throughout later years, after the initial pre-CBS era, Fender Jags appear to have come out of the factory with the cut-off teeth facing either way, randomly, without any strong trend.
4. Some people claim Leo Fender thought the low E and A were too dominant volume-wise on the Jag, which is why he decided to cut off the claw teeth (claw fingers?) for those two strings.
5. The Jaguar is known for being quite trebly or even shrill - some people say that if you place the cut-off teeth on the treble strings, it reduces some harsh treble frequencies. Apparently Fender Japan Jags consistently have the cut off claws over the two treble strings.
I have no idea either way, as I haven't A/B tested, nor have I managed to find an A/B test online so far.
Your thoughts, having played your Jag for a year now?
😉😉Greatest sign off ever!!!! Well done Chris😃
How Kool is that?!?! Great job. Great sound. Thanks for taking us with you on the journey.
Glad you used that vintage cloth tone wire Chris😊. I also hate it when I dont do a good job with the sticky pokey thing - my missus always complains😂 !!
But seriously, love the look of this build. I dont usually like pink, but that is a beaut colour 👍🏼
That super fancy Fester plate is worth every penny of the $139 asking price. Way more period accurate. In real life, awesome build.🤘
That paint job is killer 🤩
Chris that is gorgeous. It sounds fantastic.
That's beautiful, I love the colour, and that neck is stunning.
🤤🤤🤤🤤 Gorgeous. The revised pickguard is perfect.
I don't know if it's better, but it was certainly made with more love than a Fender Custom Shop.
Very COOL Jag Chris, offset's and surf music, yea!
That guitar looks and sounds perfect. GREAT JOB
Absolutely stunning work , Chris !! Totally love that "Fesker Jaguar" !! That paint job is flawless and nice choice on the color !!! Thanks for sharing !!
Love it! Great to see you get to make something for yourself to enjoy!
Very nice work Chris! It look beautiful. Really like that custom neck plate that you spent lots of money having made just for you. And the color is great!
That's quality stuff right there. Nice to see y'all embracing the Triple A treatment. Artificial Age Adjusting a guitar adds so much to the tone and value of the instrument. Pick guard is sick!
That neck is killer 🔥
That is such an amazing paint job/color.
Thanks!
Excellent Chris
Awesome Guitar awesome playing !!!
Wow Chris you certainly made a beauty! I think maybe Lady Penelope would prefer that one..?
Who's lady Penelope?
@@texastoastchris Er didn't Thunderbirds make it in the States? Could always google it?
Not sure if the Fesker brand plans on doing any more slightly misnamed knockoffs, but I'd love a Fesker Meaty Aura in 80s van conversion brown and orange with a Bigsby.
Beautiful!
What a beautiful build. Is this the first time you guys have done a video where you built one for yourself?
I think so because we don't build much for ourselves.
Powder puff strat lop. Reminds me of the color my dad paint one of those 60s style guitar with the switches aluminum pickgaruds I told stuckbwith cars dad lol
Awesome Job Chris!
The Fesker Jaguar looks and sounds like a million bucks! I didn’t realize jags were only 24” scale. Thx for sharing that. Is this color Burgundy Mist in sunburst form? Looks outstanding!
Thanks Steve! Yes - BMM in sunburst.
That looks really great you guys do great stuff for sure. Love the color custom shop A+
Consider a 4 way switch for both series and parallel.
I've done it and I don't care for it.
Beautiful. Love the neck and finish, but the body looks... I don't know... a little offset to me?
It's slightly offset for sure.
Lovely!
Awesome!
Very nice. 👍
An original Fesker... I'm in!
check out the descendant vibrato
Fantastic job Chris! The paintwork, the neck, the decal and the pick guard, simply gorgeous!
Great job Chris! What is the name of the band you play in?
The AquaSonics
@@texastoastchris awesome! Thanks Chris!
Is there any truss rod, sir?
The truss rod adjustment is in the heel of the neck, it's how vintage Fenders had them.
@@hotrod54chevy have not seen. TY!
What's that color scheme called? I can't even believe I'm digging it, but that looks awesome.
Beautiful guitar Chris. Which pickups did you use?
I wound them with Dylan fron Dylan Talks tone at one of our "learn to wind" classes.
@@texastoastchris that’s awesome man. Enjoyed watching your build. I also wind pickups, and funny enough have a client who wants a Jag built. Nice work
Hey Chris, that’s the dogs bollocks! Great job!
10:17, I have found lately that I LOVE the sound of a mustang in the in between pickup setting. I usually dislike combined pickup sounds. Makes me think I would like it on a Jag too since it's short scale with similar pickups.
Some middle position are THEE sound of a guitar - this might be one.
She’s a beauty love the burgundy mist burst.
Nice guitar Chris! Love the color.
It's a beauty!
It looks and sounds amazing! I hope you keep this one.
*long pause..... I'm just kidding. Loved that.
There were a lot of long pauses for sure!
My wife says that’s the most manly pink she’s seen.
That's because its not pink - It's burgundy mist metallic burst. 😆
Awesome! I think people in the trades or just people willing to put out a quality piece no matter what the product is a dying breed. Keep on doing awesome work!😊
The only thing that would’ve made it better is a tortoiseshell pickguard
Hey Chris - Really love the attention to detail and the thought that went into the wiring and appointment design to make it an awesome “Fester”!! Hope all is well, say “Hi” to Matt.
I'm sure "Fester" is autocorrect of Fesker......:)
thanks for blowing up my comupter speaker . i upgraded
That pink burst is just fantastic! Chris totally rocks!!!
I want a Fesker Jazz Bass with that paint job.
That's pretty darn cool.
I love that guitar, colors, shape, pick guard, the whole package. It gives me ideas...
Too much effort put in to a guitar that sucks! Sorry Elvis.
Your mom sucks
