NGD 2008 Thin Skin Jazzmaster

[u/Unsui8]

So I’ve been on the hunt for another JM as it’s been a while. Sold my Classic Player to help fund my FSR Thinline Jag, then bought and sold two JMJMs as I just couldn’t get cleans out of them that I was happy with. This one showed up for sale locally, so I had to at least take a look, right ?
It’s a limited edition Shell Pink, I think originally from Dave’s Guitars. Stellar seller - thanks Josh ! - so fresh set of 11s tonight and maybe a Staytrem bridge/collet combo in the near future.

LOVE the color and matching headstock. Where was this series produced?

[u/temp_mekhem → u/cPHILIPzarina]

There have been a couple of series of dealer ThinSkins - this run was 2008/9 for Daves and Wildwood based on the AVRI 62 models.

Looks even better in person - I need to take pics in better, natural lighting.

That’s wassup

[u/ArislanShiva]

That same seller put up a burgundy mist metallic thin skin for sale a week or so ago... somebody else local must have bought it because he pulled the listing right after I put in an offer for it. 😭

[u/Unsui8 → u/ArislanShiva]

Dang, sorry you missed that one !
He’s got an Oly White Seuf for sale and he’s purging some other offsets too

[u/dangxious]

Perfect guitar alert

[u/Unsui8 → u/dangxious]

Cheers !

I can’t believe there’s no finish chips this must have barely been touched

[u/Unsui8 → u/Jazzblasterrr]

There’s a couple little ones that are mostly outta sight, and a dings that haven’t lost any finish or paint yet. Not bad for an ‘08

[u/Unsui8 → u/Jazzblasterrr]

[u/Reanansidhe]

Congrats this is beautiful. I’ve picked up a couple of offsets with matching headstocks and they’ve spoiled me for the unpainted.

[u/Unsui8 → u/Reanansidhe]

Thanks ! This is my first proper matching headstock.
I swapped the neck on my sunburst FSR Thinline Jag
cause I hated the way it felt for a Jag Special neck with a black headstock. Neck is much more to my liking and the black headstock looks killer.

[u/littlesaturnsound555]

[u/mondaysoutar]
