All user reviews for the Squier Vintage Modified Jazzmaster

I often go to my buddies apartment to play his million guitars and test out his home studio. When he told me he made an exchange to get a squier jazzmaster, I told him 'you lost me at squier'....this is because nearly 9 years ago when I bought my first guitar, I remember the god awful noise that emanated from the squier teles and strats.

I decided to give it a try and was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by it. The tones were very diverse and always pleasing, the pickups (to my knowledge but I could be a little off) are the same as the original jazzmaster (which was originally created by Mr. Fender himself as the ultimate guitar in his product line), and regardless of playing fuzzy, clean, reverb, distorted etc, I was never disappointed.

To find out that this guitar costs only $299, when the original Jazzmaster costs upwards of $800, makes me wonder why would anyone ever choose the original over the squier.

With that said, the 2 drawbacks I would say are the fact that it shows Squier's logo (instead of Fender, which is just a turn-off even though it sounds great haha), and the fact that, the way they made comparable high-quality sound come from this guitar while still making it affordable was by using cheaper parts (I've often heard the bridge pops out, but this is easily fixable by replacing it with a cheap fender mustang bridge)

To be honest I was quite moving to a septic squier.
My last two were both guitars Fender (a lite ash Tele and strat mex).
I love the fender jazzmaster but really is not in my budget!!
After careful thought and research on the net I decided to take the plunge, more guitar purchased from Thonmann I 30 days if I am not satisfied!!
I will not argue about Thonmann, no need to talk about the seriousness of this merchant.
Unpacking, I discovered the beast, no complaints, even more beautiful than photo, sunburst makes much better in real life!!
Already I am not disappointed with the aesthetic, of course we are not a good American but the quality is at the appointment.
Not POCS, the packaging makes his office.
Go quickly be connected!
I stayed on the ass, top quality microphone is either in position or lead to the standard setting is a sacred sound palette available, what I really wanted, and it was really a versatile guitar.
Attention even do not expect to play metal with it is not made for that!!
So much that I am fully satisfied with my purchase.
I personally don'' t have any big problems of interference with the bridge, the guitar would agree relatively well, we'll see in time.
Do not hesitate if you occase this is a great investment, I would do the same if I had to choose again.
