Deal Details
Miami-Guitars has select Fender Artist Signature electric guitars on sale with an additional 30% off in cart. Sale ends tomorrow. They don't charge sales tax outside of Florida. Shipping is free.

$770 for the Jag-Stang beats out a similar deal from Pitbull Audio and gets pretty close to the Adorama deals for $750, but may come out to less because of no sales tax.

Last deal I'm sharing from Miami-Guitars since these are stacking discounts; you can shop the rest of their Black Friday sale through their website [miami-guitars.com]. (discuss)

That Joe Strummer Tele is tempting. If it was maybe under $900 I might bite.

I agree, that Joe Strummer looks great!
I have watched "the guitaristas" review several times:

He likes it a lot. But most seem to think the relic job is pretty bad. I've never seen in person.

Thought the same when it actually came out 30ish years ago. A mix of his two favorite guitars. I also can say I never saw him actually use one. Ever. Not even life.
(He probably did and I just never saw the photo or article but that's the point. I was a consumer if this stuff and I never saw an ad of him even holding the thing.)

Long time player and I've never heard the term *relic job." Can you make me hip again and tell me what it is?

Step 1: Tie rope around neck of guitar
Step 2: drag behind truck on dirt road with lots of rocks


or.:
Step 1. Find a 1950's guitar that was poorly maintained.
Step 2: Pay $30k


Relic'ing is the process of making a guitar look like a relic. aka old and used. Personally I don't like it. I want my stuff to look like it did when brand new for as long as possible.

They made him a prototype in 1993 and he died in 1994. He played it a few times on the In Utero tour. It wasn't a production guitar until 1996.

I'm starting to embrace "well worn and well played" used pieces that were not abused past reasonable light/medium wear. And I'm not so concerned with dinging or denting those. My couple of "road worn" pieces are nicely done and it's never past the degree of light use
