It had been a while since I had a Japanese-made Fender and I'd never had a Jazzmaster before. I also love all things pink paisley, so I had to pull the trigger on this one. I do not regret it. I'm usually very picky about my gear, especially guitars. This one is literally perfect.Surprisingly lightweight (lighter than either my Strat or Tele!). The neck is truly wonderful: some of the best fret ends I've seen, gorgeous rosewood fretboard, and a very comfortable profile. The finish needs no introduction. It looks even better in person. Playability and sound are also exceptional. In my opinion, possibly the best deal for the money.
