hmmmm
as a jazz guitar the jags seem pretty good
never tried one with the original bridge, but my friend says they come off if you rock out too hard.
but yea...pretty damned nice guitars

A cool guitar is the Ampeg Dan Armstrong. Its just ****ing amazing, and not only that actually sounds great ad has Wonderful sustain.

Dave Grohl used one of those for a LONG time on one tour or other, and I believe popular consensus was that it sounded like **** and things looked a helluva lot up after he switched back to good ol' wood monsters...

Well like I said, it was just consensus, I wasn't there.


Personally, I'm not sold on acrylic guitars. In theory they should sound great, but I've never heard a positive comment on acrylic body tones.

Your probably right. I think i probably seem to think it sounds better or whatnot mainly because it just looks so damn nice. And for me the show put on is almost as important as the music at a concert. Its all about the atmosphere and that guitar definitely contributes to a solid atmosphere.

Fender Jags:

really?
that purpose seems bizarre
as they have a sharp think tone....
not the warm roundness of a traditional jazz guitar

everyone i know who has one plays it through some kind of fuzz box
and plays either a bit of guitar in a synth based band or in an alt rock band

they were huge in the 90's with the grunge crowd.

THats true, but jazz tone is a strange beast. The warm thick tone you'd expect from jazz would SEEM to be found most often in Valve amps, would it not?

And yet, look at most professional jazz rigs, and the amplification is solid state...Strange.
