I love them both, but the narrow nut width on the Valentine drives me crazy. Which is too bad because I love the body style.

The middle position on a JM is such a good sound 🤤

Nice Video, thank you! What hight are the frets on the valentine? Can you please measure them? I‘m thinking about a Valentins with a trem…but i‘m more a humbucker guy and afraid of that bridge Pu 😄

Thank you for this video! You have convinced me to hard tail my custom Jazzmaster build winter 2025. Will have the bridge pickup wired with the modded Eldred wiring like the Esquire but with 1meg pots. Gonna keep it bare bones and simple.

I bought one this week for 550euros. But took me ages to find one in mint conditions for this price. This guitar price is going up and up. But hey, it can compete with much expensive contenders. Very good review

Ya wanna feel something spectacular , get the Gibson Custom Shop Epiphone 63 Firebird . now , Ya have a fine instrument ,

Are these quiet or would noiseless be a better option?

What are you using for distortion and or overdrives?

Just got mine last night. Awesome guitar so far. Also, TDAG record over your left shoulder!!! One of the best albums. 🤘

what about tokai or orville.

Yup. I have one, and a CR-35. Excellent guitars. Didn't need setups, though I put Seymour Duncans in both.

I have the exact same blue stingray RS. Bought it 'sight unseen' and I love the way it sounds, the smooth tremolo system and the build quality. But the neck is pretty fat...actually to its too fat for my smallish hands, and I wish I knew that before I bought it. As a result, I don't it play it much :-(

Nice video man. I also installed Lollar P90s on a project guitar but went with a custom Tele body made by Warmoth. It’s one of my top two best playing and sounding guitars

got yourself an awesome guitar!! and an even better girlfriend by the sounds of things!!

Not sure if you know but the Neck on the new one running all the way through the body is alot closer to Gibson & alot more important than the better headstock on the older one, Thats what Troglodytes show said, he said the ones with the neck all the way threw the body are alot better than the ones with satin regular necks...The original Gibson Firebirds definitely have the same neck as the 2020s & not the older one in your video, however id love to have either one 😆 ordering the newest one tomorrow! Cant wait! Thinks for sharing the video

Pau Ferro looks like dry rotted cardboard. Its horrible.

are they noiseless?

The jv60 for sure. The Tele is so common

What Pots do you have in each guitar? Are they 1 meg, 500k, or 250k?

Hey! 2 1/2 year guitar player here. I mostly play punk and I'll be getting a new guitar soon. I've decided on a sherwood green player strat with a Pau Ferro fingerboard, and I'm doing some research about pau ferro. No, I haven't player a guitar with a pau ferro fingerboard, but I honestly don't think it'll make that much of a negative difference. Do you think I should get it?

I have an MJT body that I need a guard for in the "correct" size for an MJT Jazzmaster, did you use a Vintage/AVRI size gaurd?. Love the guitar btw, I'm going for the Lollar P90's too.

I just buy it 👍😉

If you play any clean jams, go JM pickups. But if you’re all about the rock, go p90s. That’s my take at least.

hey, did the hardtail help with sustain and tuning stability? because my jazzmaster seems to be going out of tune quickly (i don’t use the tremolo bar at all), and i was wondering if a hardtail bridge would help

Would you consider a p90 in one position and the vintage in the other? Best of both worlds or bad idea?

String threw body???

Update on the board?

There’s so many good things about this guitar but what really brings it all together is the painted headstock

Song at 0:01?

I could careless about looks. I'm all about sound. Know Stevie Ray Vaughan's famous strat was ash maple with a pau ferro fretboard. Think it is hard to make fair comparison when it is not used on the high quality guitars. Objectively speaking

Ive got the Golden Age one, and I love it.

Nice tone! Kul att kolla dina väl gjorda videos! Nyfiken på att veta mer vad du spelar för musik genres då din tone i slutet va väldigt alt rockig amerikansk med lagom dirt utan att döda gitarrens orginal ton 👍

Your wish came true

I didn’t like the nasally sound of the lollars. The PV sounded better balanced to me.

Rosewood comes in light colors sometimes also..you can use lemon oil and other oils to darken it..pau ferel is just as good as roswood.its actually considered a harder wood..i dont know were everyone got it in there head rosewood was so much better..its not.also,if that were made in usa,it would be over 4k so be glad its made in mexico

Is it possible to put a p90 on this guitar (considering you replace the pickguard)? Is there enough space ?

Hope you come back soon dude! Just found your channel and love your videos!

I planned to buy myself a J Mascis Jazzmaster and just stumbled upon this video and now I am conflicted lol!!!! This looks so epic!

I was really surprised because I love p90s, but the Jazzmaster pickups are more my flavor here! 👍🏾

pensez vous que 800 euros est un prix trop elevé pour cette guitare , j en ais vu une de 2004 a vendre . merci

My wife (then girlfriend) did the same thing with me……that’s one reason she’s my wife.

Nice vid. I just bought a tokai fb65 firebird. Nice guitar the finish on the neck could be better. Maybe worth checking out.

Hey there, I enjoyed your video and you enlightened me to a new model I was not aware of...

what a crazy guitar. Great video!

I have the Trem model and it’s so my fave guitar.

Can you run in it front of your amp? Or is this just something to record or go into a PA with?

The tele bridge setup is showing its special sauce chops. Tone is so dynamic. Throw the MM neck on the tele, and you got the holy grail.

I built a Jazzmaster from an MJT body and I love it. When you build a guitar from scratch you can get all the quality components that you want. I got the Mastery Bridge and string tree, Seymour Duncan Jazzmaster pickups, a vintage-correct wiring harness that was custom made. The neck was also custom made to exact spec of the original. In all it cost me around $3,500. But, if you get a Fender Masterbuilt it would probably cost close to $10,000.

Yes, FGN makes the best musical instruments)

I seem to remember Eric Haugen saying that he preferred those 1990s-2000s era Firebirds (he did specifically mention the Korean build) to the current, and recommending them too. I looked at the time, and I think I did see one for sale on eBay, from Japan and think it was around 700-800. They're a little more money and harder to find, but it seems worth the search. I have a couple of Squier & Epiphone's. I do take your point about resale. But the newer Epiphone Casino, and the Squier Classic Vibes are quite nice, if you get a good one. And I like them for those character guitars I use less like Casino, Mustang and yeah ... would love an Epi Firebird. Squier and Epiphone make a good mod platform, if you aren't planning to resell. My backup Strat (a 50s CV) is in the shop getting setup, and upgraded to Fender '59 Pure Vintage. I like it that much, better than the Fender Players I've tried, and I think after pup upgrade, should be getting close enough to the Vintera, except without Fender on the headstock. And gives me a 50s flavour to complement the main 60s Vintera. But, don't like Indian Laurel either, that's why I chose the maple neck 50s Squier CV Strat. The smoother, darker Casino Laurel fretboard is better than the Mustang, which is a bit more grey, ashy, dry / scratchy.
