Neat! A Jazzmaster that makes sense.

I like 'em. They've got better pickups, simpler switching, and a bridge that doesn't suck. If Leo had come out with these Jazzmasters for Fender I bet that we would see far fewer strats and superstrats these days.Join me in the fight against muscular atrophy!

Cool guitar at a reasonable price. G&L does things right. Much better take on the design than Fender.
I have to agree about that pickguard though. IMO it'd look better with a tortoise guard and cream plastics.
Maybe it's just me, but does it look as if the strings may be spaced too widely on a narrow neck?.

Love block inlays.
JM bridge is a PITA. Go to the offsetguitars forum and see how every other thread is about problems with the bridge.
I test drove one for a couple of weeks and did enjoy the novelty of resting my hand on the extra string length and playing fingerstyle. Definitely a different feel.Originally posted by crusty philtrumAnyone who *sings* at me through their teeth deserves to have a bus drive through their face

I am used to the Music Man necks that are 1 5/8, so I bet I'd dig the G&L.Administrator of the SDUGF
