The tele bridge setup is showing its special sauce chops. Tone is so dynamic. Throw the MM neck on the tele, and you got the holy grail.

I built a Jazzmaster from an MJT body and I love it. When you build a guitar from scratch you can get all the quality components that you want. I got the Mastery Bridge and string tree, Seymour Duncan Jazzmaster pickups, a vintage-correct wiring harness that was custom made. The neck was also custom made to exact spec of the original. In all it cost me around $3,500. But, if you get a Fender Masterbuilt it would probably cost close to $10,000.

I seem to remember Eric Haugen saying that he preferred those 1990s-2000s era Firebirds (he did specifically mention the Korean build) to the current, and recommending them too. I looked at the time, and I think I did see one for sale on eBay, from Japan and think it was around 700-800. They're a little more money and harder to find, but it seems worth the search. I have a couple of Squier & Epiphone's. I do take your point about resale. But the newer Epiphone Casino, and the Squier Classic Vibes are quite nice, if you get a good one. And I like them for those character guitars I use less like Casino, Mustang and yeah ... would love an Epi Firebird. Squier and Epiphone make a good mod platform, if you aren't planning to resell. My backup Strat (a 50s CV) is in the shop getting setup, and upgraded to Fender '59 Pure Vintage. I like it that much, better than the Fender Players I've tried, and I think after pup upgrade, should be getting close enough to the Vintera, except without Fender on the headstock. And gives me a 50s flavour to complement the main 60s Vintera. But, don't like Indian Laurel either, that's why I chose the maple neck 50s Squier CV Strat. The smoother, darker Casino Laurel fretboard is better than the Mustang, which is a bit more grey, ashy, dry / scratchy.

I know that nobody cares but I am not impressed, not even a little bit. As much as the Fender headstocks are always nailed, the MM/ Sterling makes the most lame ones. (-I know why they are like this, ok) And the whole guitar is so goofy. Yes I know the look is secondary. But this is just ugly. Versatility, light weight... Who cares if the guitar has no character. Because it's (-not she for me) just hasn't. I don't need a guitar that can do similar things than the Gretsch, I need a Gretsch, and so on.. (Nothing else can anyway) Yes, the traveling and the different amp settings, yes, indeed a headache sometimes. But that's our job, to deal with these tasks. Also I am in absolutely different genres then the Maroon5 so it's also okay. We are so many and so different. So, all the best!

I paired my guitars down. Now I only have one bass, one orchestra model acoustic for fingerstyle, one dreadnought acoustic for flatpicking, one electric with humbuckers and one with single coils. I have the full spectrum of sounds I need, but I still find myself wanting more… Once I have more space and more money, I think I will buy more. I agonised over it for a long time, but I realised that they’re my number one hobby and they bring me a lot of pleasure. I can see it’s the same for you man, and people watching this video too. Guitars are our thing, and what’s better than a box of toys? That’s right… a bigger box of toys 👍 Don’t sell your guitars dude

I’m a big Strat guy. Last week I tried out a Fender Player Pau Ferro in Black and absolutely loved it. It’s actually on my to get list for the next year. Then again, the guitar store regularly maintained their gear which makes it harder to tell if it’s naturally drier. However, I agree on it sometimes feeling rough because it seems to get drier more than other types of wood. It’s in my three favorite woods but it’s barely even in there. Rosewood is just my favorite.

I think jazzmasters are not hard to find second hand, since 4/5 years all the tourists are playing offsets now, so there’s a lot of import jazzmasters and jaguars on second hand listings. Yes the new mexicans are a bit expensives but it’s all guitar prices which have gone up not just mexicans. Comparing them to the japanese, if it wasn’t for Pau Ferro vs Rosewood they are almost identical (same woods, same parts, almost same finish, even mexican pickups are generally better, especially against those 90s/00s japanese fenders that people overprice so ridiculously, telling you that they are sooo much better than nowadays mexicans, see the jagstang for example, the best version of the 3 is the new MIM, not the fujigen made, not the tokai made). Anyway that pau ferro debate is now over since they went back to rosewood and see the success of the vintera2, that desert sand jazzmaster that you see everywhere, suddenly no one speaks cares about japanese made anymore now. Regarding those second hand pau ferro vintera1 which are coming on the market for half price now, reallt, 99% of the music audience dont know what pau ferro, no one will see a difference, girls dont care if your fretboard is light brown or dark brown , only population who cares is that guitar geek people of instagram that dont know shit about songwriting and music in general, and for which i couldnt care less about.

Great review, you are right, Music Man should put more info about all the details, and the neck measurements.... just wish you could measure with a caliper the neck at 1st. 7th and 12th fret and also how wide is the neck...do you think for a Modern Rock Player the Valentine is a better fit?

Beautiful guitar and sound it's so good! Do you remember if the pickguard is an American vintage type? I just bought a sonic blue body on eBay and I've 2 others from MJT (Tele and Strat). I think it is the last one I imported from the USA. Now shipping is expensive and with customs it's 180€ in total (85+95). You were lucky to find second-hand because there aren't usually many Jazzmaster bodies.

The tones themselves in Kemper are great but the response is just ok. Same with all the other digital stuff. To me sansamps remain the better option. A big reason is the simplicity - even more simple than an actual amp and there's non of this A to D and D to A conversation going on in that its analog. Sound is highly complex and to me the digital stuff is only as good as the algorithms and the people behind them. Meanwhile the Tech 21 guys have been working on this stuff longer than anyone i can think of. The current gen sansamps are amazeballs in my book.

My take on your points: 1. Sounds great out of the gate- nope, you need to find a good preset as with most modelers etc. 2. tweeking- once you understand your new device, you can create a preset (or download one), tweek it minimally and just use that preset (and a couple more) forever, like me and others do. I have my main presets and don't need anything else, other for fun.
@alexradsby
@alexradsby 4 ай бұрын
I agree with you. That said. I never used presets on Helix, always buildt mine own rig because it was a modeller, compared to a Kemper and adding profiles. It only has profiles so, it's basically set and go. Don't think I've ever tweaked a profile, I have however tweaked the effects if the profile had any. I definitely did the same thing as you. Used 2 profiles and then the rest was for fun and learning how new amps sound etc. But I sold the Kemper in favor of the real amp after a while too, Kemper for me was a great learning tool about amp characteristics so now I own a Bad Cat Black Cat instead haha.

So glad my inexperienced ass buys Epiphone and have yet to sell a single one. I've bought and sold 10 guitars from other brands but my 3 Epiphones are my pride and joy I am so in love with them. I like the fact I get that authentic Les Paul vibe even if it's not as polished as a Gibson and have multiple guitars for different tunings.
