Check Joe out -- another surprise jazz/jag player:
Yes. Was Synanon House the same facility Charlie Parker was in a few years earlier (for the same problem)?Joe was playing that Jag at Synanon House, an addiction-recovery facility, where Joe stayed for a while when getting straight
from heroin.
Fender supplied guitars to the facility for use of the patients, and Joe liked the Jag the best, so that's the one he played.
Topic 1 -- Always loved Roy Clark, not always what he played but rather how he played it. Chops to burn.
This album with Gatemouth still gets intense repeated exposures on my turntable from time to time:
Topic 2 -- Fenders and Jazz. Nothing wrong with Fenders and Jazz. Teles. Jag/masters. Even Strats. A guy at Jazz.be introduced me through Youtube to a player in California who played very credible Jazz guitar on a Strat -- lovely tone. Most of the magic is in the head, the ears, and the fingers. The instrument can help but it is not the music.

No, Charlie Parker was in Camarillo State Hospital, involuntarily.Yes. Was Synanon House the same facility Charlie Parker was in a few years earlier (for the same problem)?
Roy Clark also owned and played a 1961 Jazzmaster in Sunburst with S/N 67765 which is said he got her from Leo Fender himself.
The Jaguar is supposed to be a 1963 one, don't know about the metallic color. Here is another one from the same show as in post #1:

Always been one of my dream cars.Thought you meant this '64.
