A previous version of this story featured information that J Mascis didn’t like Johnny Marr’s signature Jaguar, including the quote, “It doesn't work at all for me, really. Nothing about it works for me.” Although the editing of the video above implies this is the guitar Mascis is talking about, he is in fact discussing the Lake Placid Blue Jaguar he is holding, which is cropped out of the interview footage when the comments are made.

J Mascis has given a comprehensive tour of his extensive guitar collection in a new YouTube video for Reverb, including a bevy of lustrous Jaguars and Jazzmasters.
