Got one! had a quick blast this morning, lovely guitar plays & sounds great, a bit of a mix between a strat / tele / and some gretsch thrown in too.
Can't wait to gig it this weekend!

well, gave it a blast at rehearsal the other night, no probs with strings slipping, which i;ve heard is a common problem - it's fitted with a tune-o-matic, and apparently the tremelo is fitted closer to the bridge to give more string-break angle, only had to tweak the action a little, but it plays great.
sounds fantastic with some volume too, really twangy, and the ryhthm circuit mellows things out nicely. very nice with a lot of reverb and a tremelo pedal.
it also handles overdrive nicely, got some lovely musical feedback from it!
managed to rehearse a full hour set and didn't miss my tele one bit.
Gigging this weekend so gonna give it some hammer.
Really impressed up to now tho, great value for money.

awesome- i will check em out
the regular jazzmaster bridges really just need to be set up properly- but not everyone knows how to do em properly- i certainly don't haha-
im still keen to try the teles with the jazzmaster pickup- but ive got to save up for moving overseas... so i guess guitars will have to wait
