      Not bad in terms of sound, not bad at all. However, the design is kind of a turn-off, and I'm not sure about the placement of the pick-up switch. I wouldn't go for it.

      Looks like its made "different" just for those that want "different".

      Really don't like the look or design. Pickguard is useless and the the switch???

      Not a fan of the Jaguar line anyway.

      Gotta agree with all three of these comments. Sounds good, looks bad.

      Yeah, I'm with you guys, sounds good, looks terrible, did somebody cut out too many left handed models and they thought they could use up the bits, pickguard is fairly pointless, lower fret access is not real flash, somebody wasn't really thinking were they, do like the humbuckers though.

      Yeppers. That's pretty much the idea behind the "pawnshop" guitars.

      I think it's kinda cute. Kooky, but cute.
