Bought this last fall. I’ve wanted a JM for so long but wasn’t really digging the factory options so I took the plunge on a Fender mod shop build. I love this guitar and the build quality is superb. The pickups are a little hotter than I expected but it’s a nice variation from my strats.

Beautiful axe. I've always loved JMs, that body shape just feels so sweet. What are you plugging into?

I’m a bedroom guitarist to I run through a two notes torpedo cab+ straight into Logic. Usually just have it on a fender bassman emulation.

Hey, whatever works! What kind of material do you play?

Thanks dude. I saw it in the preview and was like “yeah that’s it. done”

That's fantastic, so many new options in the ModShop. I have a 2018 ModShop JM.

That's a lovely finish. Are those P90s?

Thanks! The silverburst looks great. Very happy with it.

The pickups are just the standard Fender JM Pickups they offer. I can't remember the exact name of them.
