Let me first start off with I am not putting up pics just yet, they are on the webz all over, plus I don't know how 
Any way I am mainly a Gibson guy (3 LP's) which I love dearly, but when I went into Sam Ash a couple weeks ago and saw the KC Jag lefty hanging on the wall I stopped in my tracks. For one it's a lefty, which you never see in a store. I played it a couple times on a couple different days and I really liked it. I hate Strats, I don't want a Tele, and I am a huge Cobain fan. The main selling point for me was the Super Distortion in the bridge which I always wanted in one of my LP's. and the 3 switch toggle at the bottom right of the guitar which I love rather than the 3 sliders on the normal Jags which I didn't like. I only got 30 minutes with it last night (which is when I got it) but it does pretty much whatever you need it for, metal, grunge, alternative, rock. Which is all I play and it's lighter than my lp's. I was just looking for something differnt to add to my arsenal and this thing is amazing. Just have to get used to playing a Fender rather than a Gibby for now. This is a great guitar, and sounds amazing. Plus it's like the only lefty Jag you can get really. I am very happy with it.
And before we get the signature comments and Cobain jokes, please don't. It's not funny and this thread is about the guitar, not how he died. And 1200 isn't a bad deal at all. Esp when there are people shelling out 5 and 6 grand for certain other Sigs from Gibson on here. Kurt was pretty much why I picked up a guitar and writing songs. He made is accessable to me who was just learning to write songs. He is important to me as a musician, not a guitar hero. And yes, I have his books, and converse, and his figurine, and Nirvana shirts, and box set, and all the studio recordings. Why not the Jag.
