someone said: how does it sound, as in does the guitar cope well with heavier styles ie.rich harmonics, controllable feedback and plenty of low end?
Jeez, not much love for the pearloid scratchplate ☹
The extreme creamy white of it all reminds me of Milkybars
The toggle switch was supposed to be chrome but as mentioned the bearings on the one I bought were wrong.
That's the exact reason, I'm so used to playing les pauls now that I can't see myself reaching for another type (or location) of a toggle switch.
This is the first time I've gone with SD Rails, so it's a bit of an experience for me (I've had my fair share of Seymour D's before & every time I've been pleased).
So far I'm liking the rails, though the tone pot feels even more crucial with them; slightest variations are making big differences. So far it's giving me nice tones, got that early Pearl Jam tone I always look for in a guitar so I'm happy.
Solo's are holding their own now thanks to the new pups, as before with the stock pups, I was lucky to hold a single bend for long let-alone pull off a decent Dinosaur Jr style solo.
I must admit rail feedback is kinda odd, it's a 'softer' squeal, not as booming as the neck pup (which I gotta say is a bad-ass, I'd recommend it). As for the controlling of it, I'm afraid I haven't had them up that loud yet, the jag hasn't been in a reahersal room let-alone at a gig.
Oh, and those string savers are squirrel nutkin's nutsack; best Jag replacement I've bought.
Cheers for the comments 😛
