Re: Anyone ever play a Jaydee Guitar?
Yes. It was a "basic" Explorer model - all-mahogany, rosewood 'board, dot inlays, controls like an SG, original pickups had been robbed out and replaced with Ibanez Super 58 HBs. (Not necessarily a bad thing!)
The guitar previously belonged to a friend. He had it back about a year later. He also had the full-on block inlays and binding version with DiMarzio X2Ns. Eventually, new baby forced sale.

I've played his basses a couple of times. Very nice. Very Alembic-like overall, but pretty different at the detail level.

I'm not going to buy one... I'm just trying to figure out more about the company... if they have prices comparable to Gibsons maybe I could look at one of these in the future. :dunno:

They're BRITISH, they just can't compete price-wise.

The British Pound is more valuable than the US Dollar. Makes it rough buying in the US.

Do those horns on that SG look more pointed or longer than the standard ones, or am I insane?

Re: Anyone ever play a Jaydee Guitar?
Yeah, it's not a Gibson - the neck joint is a little different too - but really nice looking and REALLY reasonably price for a US-made guitar... They're very tempting, IMO.

Re: Anyone ever play a Jaydee Guitar?
I have a couple of Jaydee guitars and have had a few more in the past
SUPERB instruments. I have a Flying V of his which is brilliant. Rings like a bell. Slab Brazilian fingerboard. Dimarzio pickups. Plays really nicely and sounds incredible. Throaty roaring sound. Chunky midrange and balanced high end. Top notch.
The other is a 335 style guitar with no F holes but has been modded to have 3 P90's before I got it. Sounds great too, but I would have preferred just 2 pickups tbh. I am sure it used to have 2 HB. Still, plays extremely nicely.
In any case, he is a top quality builder and used they can be quite affordable. New, they are totally worth what he asks.
