Not normally one for a NGD as I don’t think people usually care what new toy I’ve spunked my savings on but quite pleased with this one.
I know sod all about Jazzmasters so thought I’d share it and see what’s what. Have a Fano JM6 with P90s and Bigsby that I love so thought I’d dive in and try a more straight up JM to see if it floats my boat as well.
Absolutely love the way it looks so gonna change strings, adjust the setup, make it worse, then probably get someone who knows what they’re doing to salvage it for me. In the meantime will make some noise once the family are out.
What’s the consensus on the hardware and pickups on these and the CV JM Squiers in general? The finish is flawless, neck nice if a little thin and glossy (although the gloss is very well done to be fair so it’s not an issue), hardware feels a little... I dunno... ‘light’ maybe? Generally seems like a pretty good guitar for what it cost. Very happy!

Feels very nicely put together and the finish etc is spot on but going to need some fettling to get it a bit more playable.
