    I bought an Ultra Jazzmaster. Caused minor cosmetic damage just adjusting the trussrod. The headstock is not treated - softwood, doesn't make any sense. Then there is the cheap walnut hollow dowel - it cracked when the hex slipped. Was so mad I just stuck a sticker over it, lol. The bridge height adjustment uses a hex that is .05"? Do you know how easy it is to lose or break that wrench is? 3rd - have only had a few months, much of which has been in the case and the pickup switch is already crackling like hell in the middle position. My first and possibly last American Fender. I have heard the MIJ's are as good/better for a fraction of the price.

    Bought a roadworn 60's jazz bass brand new last week just as something new. I swore off anything MIM when it came to Fender as i've had so many QC issues. I learned this many years ago and now only have US MM, GL, PRS, GIBSON. I had a bad feeling about this bass coming in and when it did.....within the first minute or so i noticed a 3/4 depth crack at the headstock that extended from the end of headstock, to underneath the E string Tuner. This was a brand new unused Fender in a Fender Classic hardcase. Although i have liked my US Fenders, i refuse to buy anything from Fender again.

      Thus far it seems to be pretty good. The pickups are great. And Marty I think was trying to make a beginner guitar. I hate you had a bad experience with it. Sounds like you had similar QC issues I got with my Fender Stratocaster Player Plus. Though i donno of anyone who had such playability issues as I had with that sucker. That had been the worst guitar I ever owned at the start and then after spending hundreds of dollars on it to get it fixed and swapping out the pickups it is now a rather decent guitar.

    Gibson are liars. 80s standards didn’t have 50s necks and they had Swiss cheese neck relief. This really isn’t close to “Jessica”. The honeyburst “classic” is closer, though not a perfect match. One thing they got right: “Jessica” was a factory second and so is virtually everything Gibson makes these days. I understand you like a thick neck and no weight relief but it’s simply not what “Jessica” has. “Jessica” has swiss cheese weight relief and a slim taper neck.

    I returned a Fender American Professional II Precision Bass today. The quality control was shockingly bad, namely fret sprout and a broken truss rod. How the bass ever left the factory in Corona is a complete mystery to me. I opted to keep the Mexican P bass I have. I upgraded the pickups to Custom Shop 63 and installed a high mass bridge. It plays and sounds like a dream.

    I have a 2013 version of the Vintage V100 Lemon Drop... I prefer the earlier models because they have the regular les paul neck heel and the correct body curve around the pickup switch area going into the neck joint... This does make all the difference in appearance... I believe they introduced the newer funky neck heel when they ran into trouble with Gibson... They will probably sound the same though.. Its great that they have a long neck tenon and a rosewood fretboard along with a thick maple cap... It is a really great guitar that has very nicely voiced pickups.
