@@BigBoss-md4wp I think the biggest difference is that the electronics are not Wilkinson but Entwhistle based and I think the body is heavier. I have not tried one although I have tried the T style and it was great for the money. That said if I got a beginner guitar that I wanted to keep into being intermediate then I would stick with the V6. The one I reviewed had awesome playability and great tuning stability. I would happily gig with it.

@blutonemusic 2 ай бұрын
You are absolutely right! I got that confused. It's about a 9.5" radius at the nut end and about 14" at the 22 fret. Equally the shape of the neck is a modern 'C' to 'D'. A very interesting guitar. Thanks for pointing out the error.

Buenos días John. Una pregunta. A que altura tienes las Pickups y las cuerdas ? Muchas gracias
@blutonemusic 2 ай бұрын
Buenos días Miguel. Tiendo a tener mis pastillas bastante cerca de las cuerdas, pero en realidad es sólo una preferencia. En el Starla le di cuerda a las pastillas hasta que escuché un 'Tono de lobo' que es cuando los imanes comienzan a afectar la vibración. Luego retrocedí un poco y quedé contento con eso. Echa un vistazo a Monty's Pickups, ya que ofrecen un buen tutorial sobre cómo configurar las alturas de las pastillas. Para ser honesto, es realmente una decisión subjetiva que depende del tono y la ganancia. Espero eso ayude. John

That reminds me of a mexican roadhouse strat I bought second hand that had no fret wear and was spotless. It had a 12" radius,USA noiseless pickups(not sure if they were generation 4) and the colour was called "mystic ice blue" or something similar.It was a high quality guitar but I never properly bonded with it-i realise now because the neck pickup was crap, it didn't have enough treble, and it also didnt really sound very good on any pickup,but I liked it so much that bought another one brand new that was white with a maple fretboard instead of pau ferro as a backup. But strangely enough, the blue was a 2016 model, and the white was a 2017 model, supposedly the same specs, but the neck on the white was noticeably thicker and it sounded much better. Still muted and crap on the neck pickup, but the bridge pickup was amazing. springy, juicy tone, ideal for my funk style of playing.(i dont use positions 2 or 4). Anyway, that's my guitar nerd story! I should have kept the white one and got a decent neck pickup for it

I’ve recently got the JS600, it’s got locking tuners and Alnico pickups and with a Wilkinson trem, for mine (which was a b stock that I had trouble finding a defect) I paid £248 delivered! It needs no upgrades (except maybe I might get a roller string tree) and it plays and sounds as good as anything I’ve ever had. The only guitar that I would put in the same ballpark is a Tokai Strat I had many years ago, and ever since I sold it I have cursed that day 😂 No doubt about it they make a great guitar (or possibly Cort does), regardless of the price, I was looking at the Fender range until I saw the reviews about Jet!
