60's 'servicemans' Jaguar Surf Grean


this was my first and only journey into the world of guitar re-finishing. the story begins with my very first ebay purchase. it was what i thought might be a vintage jaguar. it turned out to be what is commonly referred to as the 'servicemans jaguar'. google it. when i received parts in a box (not kidding) the body had stickers and grey primer that would have scared kurt cobain.


i did some research and found http://www.reranch.com/ for correct wood filer, primer, paint and aged nitro laquer. it was expensive but it looked great. i built the matching cab and sold it on cl. but i kept the naked lady amp handle, natch.
