NGD: VM Jag

Got this gal on Friday but hadn't had time over the weekend to post it. Changed the strings from 9s to 10s and she plays great. There is some string buzz on the high e, b but I haven't been able to fully set it up yet. Overall it sounds good and plays pretty darn smooth. For 250$ new man they make some great stuff now a days. Other than a small, small, paint chip by the neck pocket (Quality Control issue) it plays just as good as the Classic Vibe Guitars, IMO. Just happy to have a Jag again.

These are awesome guitars. I had a few teething issues with mine, but I've finally got it to a point where I'm happy with it.

The only major problem was that I'm quite a heavy handed player, and the stock bridge was rattling to an extent where it was literally shaking itself a part mid-gig on a couple of occasions. The stock bridge has now been replaced with a TOM (thanks proggy!) and the neck has been shimmed to accommodate the new bridge. I've also had it set up for 12s and it plays like a dream.

bridges that rattle apart are not set up correctly.
