Personally don’t have a favorite Jazzmaster I’m more into a parts build. But. That birch green may be the one. Personally I use only the bridge pickup on a Jazzmaster and use the volume to taste. Treble bleed is a must if I do so. Maybe something different in the bridge depending on how I feel in the mix.
What I love about WCM is if I need a review for an offset, I know y'all will have one I can check out!
The VST i cant even find and the code it comes with doesn't even work.
I got the pro 2 jazzmaster in surf mist green dam I love that guitar and the jm jm which was my introduction to jazzmasters and now I’m totally converted
Great review I really love both those colours gotta love a jazzmaster. I really don’t use the rhythm cct but to me it’s part of the kookiness of a jazzmaster. But they look great value
fuck the haters. PROJECT COCONUT IS A GO
11:25 Could listen to that all day, love it
I would do anything for fender to reissue the Fender j mascis or just make more sparkle finish in general
I’ve owned one of these and they are great amps, they are super heavy but that’s the on negative. They sound amazing and can do everything. The single channel head and combo are a different thing to the dual ones in my opinion. I had one of the dual channels and it was nice but not this good. The AD15 is also a great combo
Anyone know if these will be a upgrade for classic player jazzmaster pickups from 2016 i think theyre the p90s sounding ones
I was going to buy a jazzmaster but then I donate that money to BLM just to find out that Patrisse the big boss bought a 6$ million mansion in a rich white neighborhood. I was surprised she was so vocal about white people how big of a menace they are just to go and live in the middle of them🤷 In the end no jazzmaster for me 😢
Doing some reasearch cause I've been wanting one of these for a while. Sadly, I can't physically go into a store and play one because no store within almost a thousand miles has one. After reading a good bit of the comments, if you can, go in and play one! Develope your own final opinion on whether you want one. Don't rely on youtubers
The semi-hallow one looks awesome, too. I need to try one. Great review as always!
Fantastic video and really helped me make my choice between the antiquity 1s and 2s. I went for 1s as I wanted the slightly darker sound. Great job 🙏🏻
Sounds crappy to me. The original pickups are the best.
What modifications would you add to the squier?
I wait for Player III. It will be even more awesome.
Glad I found your channel.. I'm actually trying to decide between a VM or CV Jazzmaster at the moment (and they're both on Reverb).. very helpful information in your video, and wouldn't ya know it.. I am still having a hard time deciding. Both of them are great guitars and look fantastic.. I feel like maybe the neck on the CV might be a better player but the VM is gorgeous.. lol anyway, thank you for the information, much appreciated 👍
Recently got the 2024 Semi Hollow Satin S2 Vela in Tobacco Sunburst. Sounds great and the Pattern Regular neck might be the most comfortable neck I've ever played. It's right there "neck and neck" (pun intended) with the PRS Pattern Thin neck. What's really nice about the Semi Hollow Vela is it's so LIGHT and it actually is pretty loud unplugged for noodling on the couch
Finally a kurt cobain guitar review with nirvana songs so i can hear the type of tone it would give me for those songs
The same pedal as sound city and some other English amps of the time. Does it have bass speakers in it?
Thanks for sharing! I love Duo Sonic!
That amp sounded like it maybe had a problem. I wouldn't normally characterize solid state as being so rolled off. Maybe it's the JFET design that sounds like that? Anyway, pass for me.
not a mustang w/o tremolo vibrato? duo sonic
For me I think the Player 2 Teles are cool..maybe swap that bridge out. Otherwise pretty good standard. My issue with these is just the lack of rhythm section. Bit of a bummer the Jaguar and Jazzmaster feel incomplete. But I mean it’s a ok price, quality build and I get they are trying to keep that $799-$899 price tag. For me the white blonde chambered Tele would be a good buy. For a Jazzmaster I’d prob take the next step up to the Vintera 2 series personally. Or even the American Player or a MIJ. For the money being a few hundred different…I feel better investment. The player 2 Teles and Strats seem like a good deal to me. The others, I’d rather spend the extra $250-$300 for the extras at the price point already. Or go used on something else. I see the store demo American 2s, at my Guitar Center for around $1300 right now they are clearing out. Maybe something new is coming with that? Because that’s a pretty decent deal on store demos.
LOVED THIS
Might you compare a Player II Jazzmaster with a G&L Tribute Series Doheny?
Sounds better tuned
I feel like the ultimate Jaguar, considering some of its issues and to make it more of a companion to the Jazzmaster (and tribute to its biggest surf competitor) would have the following changes: -Increase the scale length to 24.5”, standard Mosrite scale length. -Replace the bridge with a stainless steel zero fret and a brass string guide. -Replace the pickup switches with 3-way Mustang switches and circuitry with the phase options. -Replace the bridge with a Mustang bridge and make the mute standard again. -Replace the Lead Circuit pots with 500K’s. -Replace the pickups with a 14K Mark I single coil in the bridge and a 10.2K Mark V single coil in the neck. -Offer a very narrow replacement neck with speed frets. -Offer 17K ‘59 Joe Maphis single coils and V-II Humbuckers as replacements. The V-II’s should be available in parallel (5K) or series (20K) versions.
It may not be the best, but the Classic Player Jazzmaster has this whole early-2010s nostalgia thing going for it.
just bought a "used" SB vintera ii jazzmaster. I must say that I'm not disappointed : looks good, confortable to play, really good pickups... thanks for the review that helped me make my choice
what once was by hers?! 😍😍😍
I appreciate Nelsen’s no BS I don’t work for GC I can say my thoughts approach to this comparison haha! I def like the player II of the pair sound wise and ya swapping the bridge to a mastery or staytrem would be the usual approach so it’s good they are starting to listen to customers in find ways of addressing that.
Nelsen is the *Wild Card* of the WCM Team
For whatever reason UA-cam stopped recommending ya’ll even though I’m subbed. Either way glad to see you are all still making awesome content :)
Well thanks for still sticking with us
That neck pickup on the 'old' Vela is weird - isn't it supposed to have the Type D that looks like a DeArmond? That's what came in my 2018 and 2019 Velas.
I just wish the vintera 2 came in that turquoise with the matching headstock because man that looks lovely too my eyes haha
Player II definitely has more definition with played with distortion.
yeeeeeeeah, we thought so too!
Love the video guys. It's always really cool seeing fellow black millennial guitar nerds!
I just got the 490 Pro Plus to replace my Sony MDR7506 for mixing. I will still use the Sony MDR7506 for recording because of the close back. But for mixing the 490 pro have become my go to. sounds so amazing.
I wish they wouldn't have classic player'd it. Move that trem back
My first thought when I learned about the Player II series was "why?" but now after hearing them side by side there is a pretty big difference in sound. Personally I love the rhythm circuit but I don't judge anyone who wants a streamlined version they can pickup and play.
Glad we could clear that up for you! Thanks for the feedback
How does the rhythm circuit stop anyone from picking up and playing? It’s an additional feature to the Player II that has no effect on the same features on both models
@@Paulyb7 I don't understand it myself. I just know people who don't like how it sounds and don't want something on the guitar that they never intend to use
I really love the style of this - I warmed up pretty recently to PRS style guitars after "not getting them" when I got a cheapish Harley Benton copy, and moreso when they came out with the new afford CE range, but this is definitely closer to the vibe of what I like in guitars :) Vaguely Rickenbacker like!
I’m going for the birch green. Looking forward to it.
*GREAT CHOICE*
Man I really dig your guys’ vibe. Subscribed 😎
Glad you dig it, and thanks for subscribing. We've got plenty of other videos if you wanna see more stuff from us.
where did they film this in a bar??? so noisy
It was at a content creators collaborative event, sorry about the noise 😅
Player II Pros over Player I: 1. Actual Jazzmaster pickups 2. Rolled fingerboard edges 3. Rosewood fretboards (debatable/subjective) 4. Classic tuners (debatable/subjective) 5. Better Mustang bridge Both models do not have the rhythm circuit which is a shame as it can be used for an instant jazz tone and sounds great as a lead sound with some fuzz or treble boost pedals
You got it! *Thanks for the feedback*
so exited for the to be in music stores nearby, fantastic demo!
*thank you, thank you*
The classic player is still the best imo
that's totally understandable! thanks for watching and leaving us a comment!
I'm ready for more Supro content please!
Wellllllll looks like that comparison video is on the list!
@@WorkingClassMusic love to see it
The American Pro 2 is a good modern Jazzmaster. The stock old style bridges are made to be used with gauge 11 and 12 strings.
