The Jazzmaster has been made in Japan
The neck has 21 frets and single coil pickups are Fender Vintage style (inspired by P90)
The bridge is so original vintage
It has a volume knob and one tone knob, a 3 position selector (Neck pickup alone, bridge pickup alone, both pickups together) as well as three other buttons: two volume knobs and tone serious and drive the micro a switch to switch quickly from his grave to a high pitch.

The neck is thin (it is necessarily the Fender) and wish well in hand
Access to acute may seem difficult at first but with a little practice you get used to very quickly
The guitar is perfectly balanced (either sitting or standing) and the plane dug in the back of the body is more enjoyable (for sitting)
Once connected, the sound is directly clear (the Fender of course) and clear (much closer to the bite of a Telecaster). After some adjustments we obtain easily the desired sound (the buttons are Polivalente asses and let's have a history of another directly)

I play mostly grunge rock enough (approaching the Kills or PJ Harvey), but also blues and jazz. This guitar is simply a marvel as it allows to vary the sound (move from his grave and his Lourtie a slamming and clear). It is very polivalente at this level and it is for me the best guitar at this level (with Jaguar): the sound is clear and slamming into the acute and with a little distortion is easily obtained a powerful and accurate.
I play on a Roland Cube 30x, which contains a lot already and it is indeed very beautiful with this guitar, I can easily get any sound! I also use a delay pedal DD-7 and the two combined (guitar and pedal) is a wonder!
I have a soft spot for his heavy and fat can be obtained by changing the tone of the micro serious but what is amazing is that this sound can go directly to the switch using a clear and crystal-clear!

It's been two years that I have soon and I am extremely happy! I remake that choice if I had biensur! It is perfect for my style (The Kills, PJ Harvey or Babyshambles). One thing to note: the original bridge which is really crappy (yes, excuse me ^ ^). The strings tend to jump when one plate a little strong agreement and they are more or less raprochées each other, forcing up to the ropes properly. It is extremely advisable to change it by replacing it with an easel or an easel for Mustang Classic Players.
Otherwise this guitar is simply excellent and the value taken as well!
I therefore advise you without hesitation!
