Jay Turser JT-RES

I paid around £150 on this guitar but i think it was on a special offer at a guitar fair. I was looking for a cheap Les Paul and this one looked perfect for me.

This guitar looks great and it plays great at good price. It has a nice tone I have played alot worse guitars for the price.

I have had a couple of problems with this guitar like one of the volume controls came loose but was easily fixed, the part where the lead goes into broke but that was easily fixed aswell. The pick ups seem quite cheap and dodgey but they sound ok and when you play some of the lower strings they sound a bit dead.

Everything seems quite tough and high quality apart from maybe the pickup's.

This is a great guitar for the price. Deffinatly for anyone who dosn't want to spend much on a guitar but wants a cool Les Paul instead of a boring old Strat. I think it would be good for all styles of music but especially good for bands like Guns 'N Roses or the rhythem of Metallica.
