THE ULTIMATE JAGUAR VS JAZZMASTER TONE COMPARISON GUIDE (Minimal Talking; Mostly Tones!)

THE ULTIMATE JAGUAR VS JAZZMASTER TONE COMPARISON GUIDE (Minimal Talking; Mostly Tones!) After some false starts and bad experiences, ‪@Puisheen‬ has inspired me and given me confidence to dive headlong into the world of offsets. I recently had the opportunity to get a Jaguar or a Jazzmaster and had no idea which to choose, and couldn't find any helpful guidance on which would suit me best. In the end, I was lucky enough to get both and have made this video for anyone in the same position as I was. Enjoy!
