Loving the sounds of this. Apparently just a Mascis Jazzmaster but way cheaper.

Agree it sounds great.

From memory I think the JMJM has (or had) overwound alnico 3 pickups, which I'm guessing this one doesn't. Other than that it looks pretty similar except for the JMJM had build quality along the lines of the Classic Vibe range, whereas at this price point I'd bet it'll be closer to the Vintage Modified range.

I'm glad more Jazzmasters and Jaguars are coming with TOMs as stock, but without Fender offering a roller bridge for a 9.5" radius, people are going to get a mismatch if they switch it for better trem use, but most people probably don't care about that.
