IMHO, when you start rounding off the lower horn on a Jazz without doing something to the upper horn, it unbalances the bass, and it starts to look awkward.
In the photo below, the Jag body is in black, with the Jazz overlayed in green. You can see the differences in the lower horn/cutaway area. Even though the Jag horn is shorter, the cutaway is not as deep. 
Anyway, I took off a little of the lower horn on a Jazz in MS Paint. I did this by eyeball and mouse, so the curve doesn't accurately match the Jag lower horn, but it gives you a general idea of what it might look like.  |
