MGR/jassion « Fender Jagmaster »
Published on 01/29/03 at 15:00Looking for a Jagstang I came across the Jagmaster at Guitar Center. I paid about $200 for it.
Very nice tone for the low price. THe vintage body shape is a more attractive looking instrument. THe low action makes it one of the most playable instruments I've ever picked up. THe neck is the perfect width my playing style. I play all different styles of rock, from grunge to more classic varieties. For me this guitar is versatile enough for all those. I just change out the pedals. I use a Marshall MG15CDR practice amp and this guitar sounds great through it.
It is a little heavy, and the GHS boomers that it came fitted with don't seem to compliment the guitars overall sound. I'm putting heavy gauge Fender bullets on it to see how those work. It's not designed for Van Halen style bar drops, so if that's what your looking for this isn't it.
Body is silversparkle alder, rosewood fret board. Factory strings are not really compatible with this guitar. Sealed tuners. With two humbuckers.
I would recommend this guitar for any beginning or intermediate player who is looking for a higher quality axe for a low price. I've owned one other squier and from that experience I was a little on the wary side about it at first, but squier came through this time.
