So, on a whim this morning I was on kijiji (kind of a Canadian Craigslist) and googled 'Jazzmaster'. Low and behold, there was a guy selling a Classic Player Jazzmaster $500, I e-mailed him asking if he wanted a trade, he said no, but would part with it for $400. I drove on down with my brother, checked it out, and it rocked! Came home with it, not a bad $400.

Those are pics, I couldn't be more pleased with it. Never owned a Jazzmaster before or spent a lot of time with it, but I like it. Fatter than a strat but not as hot as a Les Paul, beautiful! This one's a keeper!

    Thanks! And I sold my Sheraton to my dad for $400, so essentially this has just cost me nothing.

    Thanks guys! I guess the lesson here is if you're looking for something, be patient and check kijiji/craigslist often, but be ready to pounce on a good deal when you see it!

    I got to plug it in longer this evening, and it was fantastic. Sounded so good, not quite sure why these didn't catch on back in the day.
