Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? The only issue I had with my guitar is the pickup toggle was drilled a little to close to the edge so the washer sits on the wood a little, but its not a huge deal. Reliability How has it stood up over time? everytime I place this guitar in my hands it feels perfect. I use many tunings, back and forth, it ends up being hard on the strings but the guitar doesnt mind one bit Overall Your general opinion of this product. I love jazzmasters, I love simplicity, this is perfect. I enjoyed it so much I bought the Lee Ranaldo modle too Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? nice neck feel, not too thin, but not baseball bat style, fretboard radius and frets match well Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? tone is a little limiting, volume, three wat toggle... I prefer that, but many players like options... I like to have volume up, tone off and pickup selection be the only tone factor, perfect for me. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? i love this finish. looks good indoors and outside on staged. the pickguard is way fun. comes with stickers too if youre into that sorta thing Action How was the action out of the box? played great in standard tuning, then i detuned it, over and over. the action has held up well
