NGD: FINALLY A JAZZMASTER

MINE
CAR Vintage Modified Jazzmaster
very nice shade of red
came set up with 12s in D and i though "wow, kinda dark, innit?" but immediately after tuning it to E standard, it got the ZING back
the set also has a wound g string... it has to go soon, not a fan, feels weird
BUT
a very little bridge buzz and i haven't been able to pop any of the strings during my playing
it also stays in tune pretty well even when using the vibrato
sounds crazy good while palm-muting, so THICK AND HEAVY
pretty happy with it, y'all!!!

i might put on 011s today, those 12s might be too much for me
especially the wound G
thanks, guys!

nope, i didn't
the feel is very different compared to my Tele... it's harder to play the jazzy, it's not as smooth... but it's not a bad thing. it's just DIFFERENT
i still have to get used to the tremolo arm, it¨s very new for me... but i love using it and it stays in tune pretty well

I must be a fucking monster or something. Cause my strings would jump, it'd go out of tune when I'd use the trem arm. GUH

i mean the low E and g sometimes go out of tune but it's just a few cents, nothing that would make you unable to finish the song
