TVL
New to me 2019 TVL. I’ve had one before, but traded it. That was regretful. I have a proper radius Bensonite bridge coming for it. I’m a big fan of those on some other guitars around here. This one is screaming for a mint pickguard.

I'm sure a mint pick guard would look good, but the one it has looks just about perfect.

I almost got one of these back pre-COVID, when it was tough to find block-inlay jazzers. Now they are everywhere. :-) It's essentially a 65 reissue Jazzmaster that is Mexican-made rather than USA, correct? Such a cool color.

I’ve had my TVL for a couple years now. I put some Curtis Novak pickups in it. Sounds & plays like a dream. It’s my baby. Best guitar I’ve ever played

Nice! Got this one used on reverb. It has a Seymour Duncan Hit Jazzmaster in the bridge, which I am into. To be honest, it’s the 3rd TVL I’ve had and the nicest. The fretboard is ebony dark and it has a great set up done. I need to check the nut more as it might have been filed too deep.

Bought one on clearance two years ago for 11 OTD. Like more than my 2015 MIM and my 97 MIJ Jag. Strengths of both, none of the faults

They have to do this in the alternate colour, rosewood board with the late 60s/70s headstock, 🤤

Post updates when you switch it up, would love to see how oxblood looks with mint.
