thurston moore jazzmaster and johnny marr jaguar

[cheesecats]

i've had a chance to play each of these with just a bass player, so the tones are more discernable (except for the heaping of effects i use). i can't compare with other models, but i like the playability and tones of each. the tm is janglier and more crisp, while the jm has more quack attack and low end. i played a 50th anniversary jaguar yesterday and didn't like the neck at all (9.5 radius). these are my first experiences playing either a jazzmaster or jaguar and i'm really digging them. btw, i don't use the whammy bars--will probably never screw them on.

here are some tm jazzmaster sounds

here's the marr jag in the live band mix. i'm not bothered with pickup differences, but this is how the bareknuckles sound. i'm not sure it makes any difference with all the bashing.
