In this video we take a look at another Leo jayms telecaster except this time I bought this one myself. It was $109 delivered to my house with a gig bag a cable and some tools. As far as good cheap guitars go this one’s at the top of the list for me. Now I really appreciate you watching. If you’re interested in this guitar, here’s a link along with some of the tools you’ve seen me using on the channel.

I don't want to see the channel be all about cheap guitars. I think the low buck guitars are great to learn guitar maintenance,modification and repair. Basically they're all pretty much the same, or at least close in quality and price regardless of the brand name. I enjoy the repair videos the most and then the builds.

Hey Sean ,,, new sub and player here.. Been kinda binging on your vids for a cpl days now . Really enjoying how you come across , no BS ... So , for whatever it's worth to ya ,,, I think a combo of the two would be a good mix .... I enjoy seeing what can be done on / to a low budget guitar (especially in these tight times) , but I also enjoy the building aspect as well .... I think they can work hand in hand to some degree .... I think your approach and style lends itself to both new (me) and experienced players alike ... Looking forward to the next one . All the best to you and yours , and take care, brother,,,,,

I like variety. I like to see you rebuild used guitars, upgrade cheap guitars, and make custom guitars from scratch. Tell it like it is and do what you want to do. At some point your subscribers will jump up. I'm in Texas and it's 100 degrees every day right now. It's hot and humid. I can only imagine the humidity in FL. The shop will still be there when it cools off. Make some pickups, and do some setups on cheap guitars and see how they sound.

Recently just got a Leo Jaymz Les Paul knock off from Amazon for $180 (figured I'd use it as a tinker / project guitar)... It showed up with AlnicoV Humbuckers and Grover tuners stock. The fret work was impeccable. Nicest polished frets and beautifully rounded fret ends I've ever seen on any guitar less than $2k. All 4 pots feel solid and have no "scratches" or static in them. Guitar is nice and heavy with mahogany everything (rosewood fingerboard). I figured when I bought it that it would need a lot of work, but no. I just changed out the strings and adjusted the action a bit (and adjusted the intonation in it since I changed sting gauges) and it's pretty darn solid. Paint job was nice, no excess glue or noticeable issues. I don't know if they all come that way, but if not? I sure got lucky. My ONLY complaint on it, is aesthetic. I'm not a fan of the giant square mother or pearl inlays (though nicely done), I prefer the smaller dots. But for less than $200? Amazing work....

I need a electric 12 to go with my Seagull S-12 acoustic, just to change things up a bit. I subscribed and turned on the notifications. Let's see if I get notified. LubeTube doesn't notify me at all for the 2A channels I watch. America First !

@tvtothepoint 11 ай бұрын

$109-and you said it's still a mahogany body? Damn. I just spent almost that much on a pickguard & a set of locking tuners! BTW, watching your videos has inspired me to fix up my ol' Squire Affinity Strat that's been sitting here without strings for about 4 years. New loaded SSH pickguard (was 3xS), locking tuners, and maybe a set of straplocks too! I'm going whole pig - even changing the color from plain black to something that'll pop. I'm not decided on the final color yet, but whatever it takes to make it look good with that pearly pickguard and tuners... Used your love links to the amzn store. Don't know if you do that affiliate thing, but if you do, there ya go. Edit: Watched your live stream tonight. Too bad about that 2nd winding job, but if it was easy everybody would be doing it. I'll be working tomorrow, but I'll definitely catch up in the evening. Best of luck, and keep on strummin'.

I would like to see both crappy guitars fixed up and new builds. The more I see you use the cnc, the more I want one! Same with all your tools. But it's nice watching you get a piece of total crap and make it right without alot of money too. I liked the giveaway you did last year at the music store with that young girl. That was awesome too. Keep it up man! I'm going to go back to the live Saturday stream and see if you finally got that pickup right...

Hi Shaun I really like to watch tou build guitars than demo cheap guitars, but demoing and commenting on what is wrong, and what is right with cheap guitars, is a very appreciated by viewers and is a great service to the guitar viewing folks. I enjoy them both, but much rather watch you buildin. Thanks for the videos.g and repairing them.

As long as the neck and body match up and it can be intonated proper, that's good little gitfiddle. Just swap out the electronics, hardware and get rid of that crap bridge and you'll be off to the races. Even with swapping out all that gear, you're still going to be several hundred bucks ahead of the "big" brands. Cheers!

I've been doing research on Mexican made Fender Telecasters and learned some interesting things. In Mexico 1 out of 5 people play guitar and some of the MM guitars are most likely built by guitar players. As far as MM made Fenders go, a few upgrades and you most likely will have a really decent guitar 🎸.

Howdy sir. David here. Appreciate your vids. For me, re: this guitar... QC must've slid downhill a bit, as, the 1st one I ordered had zero truss rod adjustment. Then, had to send the 2nd one back due to a bad bow in the neck, &, the saddle screws would work themselves out after about the 10th open strum. I'd be good w/a blue model, like, I blv, the first model you got, hanging up to the right, on your wall. But, as I blv you shared, ol'Leo's doesn't seem to be making those anymore; or at least, I'm not finding them on Amazon. Thots on the Eart, &/or, SLICK SL50 or 51 Tele models ? Anywho... again, appreciate your vids. Peace !
