This is a not-hideous replacement neck short of being awesome.

now they have their jazzmaster pickups instead of tele/p90/humbuckers. everything BUT jm pickups until now. Looks sexy too, very serviceman-esque

Yup, J'd my P.

I feel like that cream colored one would be better with a black pickguard, though.

I shit myself and smeared it in my eyes so I wouldn't have to see those boring-ass generic offsets.

My pants are entirely ruined however.

one thing that sucks about thier color "rocket red" is that it looks fiesta in one shot and dakota in the other. LAME

The jazzmaster style pickups really make a difference imo these looks pretty nice.To bad they don't have a sonic blue one...

No rhythm circuit, SWEET!

I already have a fake Jazzy though, my blacktop. Now if they make the telemaster with a JM neck pickup, then I'll be interested,

faux blacktop jazzy

but the bridge looks like it is setup wonky, like not centered with the nut..
or more so is angled..

maybe its just my eyes

Bridge is definitely angled. What's up with the string bar on the headstock. Too good for trees?

I'd like to know the man responsible for the atrocious tone pot placement. Was it really that hard to line it up with the pickguard?

They might've made it look different on purpose to avoid getting super cheeky. They also moved the pickguard out from under the bridge, which probably necessitated the control area reshape.

ugly headstock, i would buy some fender necks on its.

do not like volume knob placement at all, i can see that doing nothing but getting in the way of how i play..
however its cool to see these available.

this is the very reason why I prefer Jaguars over Jazzmasters. If I could live without a tone knob I would just take that out and move the volume back. But I use the tone knob a lot.
