Excellent good looking fun guitar with a few issues
I couldn’t resist the pull of this relic-ed JM style guitar.
It arrived in good condition but with some minor issues:
- the fretboard was very dry
- there were quite a few sharp fret ends
- a handful of frets were slightly uneven
I suspect some of the above were due to the very hot and dry conditions that have plagued Europe again this summer (the heating has started…) and I managed to address all of them successfully.
I have the impression that the new pickups are quite a bit hotter than the previous Roswell pickups. I owned a JA-60 that I gave away to a charity shop a few years ago.
I don’t mind that they are hotter, but I may experiment with changing the pots or swapping the pickups for some Curtis Novak JM’s that are lying around here..
Overall, very pleased with my purchase.
