39 Inch Solid Body Electric Guitar - Poplar Wood Body，Maple Neck and Laurel Wood Fretboard (Red)

This is the guitar I wanted from Sears when I was a kid. Looks great, Plays great, stays in tune. I had spent the night practicing on a Gibson LP Std, and a PRS MCcarty, then this arrived and the happiness continued. The intonation was a tiny bit out, but it tuned right up, and the patch I had loaded had it growling hard rock immediately. The surprise was switching to a smooth sound, backing off the tone and it produced a creamy, warm jazz tone that cost me an hour of my life exploring. I have a set of P90 humbucker pickups coming for this guitar, but I am going to buy another one to see what more I can get from these with other mods. With the price of even Epiphones going through the roof, I would happily recommend Leo Jaymz guitars to anyone looking for a first guitar, or anyone looking to mod, or anyone just wanting a great looking guitar that plays well. The neck, and the rest of it, look and feel like my 1967 Teisco, which is a good thing, as those are great cheap guitars too. The pickups are slightly microphonic, but much tamer than the antiques, and much clearer. It will need to be restrung and some fretboard oil applied, and the frets buffed. as they are very scratchy out of the box from sitting and shipping.

I bought this guitar for its price and the close resemblance to my Gibson SG didn't hurt either. I play weekend-level guitar in a band in MO and the SG is the main money maker for that gig. The reason I bout this guitar was to have something to noodle with I stay at my daughters out of state a few times a year. At that house is a nine-month old grand daughter. Bright red guitar. A lot of this to pull on - nothing to get cut on or scraped at all. Perfect for her. For . me was set up very well right out the box. Strings feel like 9-42's. Also - no sharp string ends by the tuners. It will probably never be played with an amp, but if so I'm sure it will be just fine. At $119 it's going to be fine if that ever comes up. As for fret edge issues, yes to some extent. But I've bought guitars for over $1000 that had those problems. It's how things are today. Reminder - This one's $119. Very impressed with the quality of the build; perfect paint, hardware is nice and tight. Great price - great value.

Playable right out of the box unlike several of the high end guitars I played at Guitar Center last week. It arrived in a very secure molded styrofoam box. The fit and finish is very good. You can see the wood grain through the gloss paint. No buzzing. Low action. Only 2 frets were slightly high. And the nut needed some filing. No fret sprout but I did need to dress the fret ends with a file because they were sharp. Frets were pretty smooth but I polished them anyway. Electronics are not top end of course but surprisingly good sounding. Tuners are satisfactory for home use but feel cheap. They probably should be replaced at some point but not right away. The body and neck is is much better than expected. Very good access to the highest frets. Looks and feels like a Gibson or Epiphone complete with the inherent SG neck dive that they all have. LOL. Not a big deal for me but it may be an issue for you. I like the sound of the humbuckers and it feels good to play with a flat 14" radius. Balanced bass, mid, and high end response. Smooth mellow sound. Not muddy and a little bright but nowhere near as bright and snappy as my guitars with single coil pickups. The control pots are good but not high end. There is no hum, static, or unwanted noises. They work smoothly. Sustain is good. And it's fairly loud/resonate unplugged compared to some solid body guitars. My biggest complaint was the sharp chrome knob for the shoulder strap. It's was placed on the back of the guitar at the top corner of the body above the neck right where the guitar contacts your body when playing, especially when seated. I had to remove it. It was so uncomfortable. I will figure out something better when I have time. Other than that it's hard to put this guitar down. I've had it a couple weeks and absolutely love playing it.

Great guitar for an amazing price. Playing guitar since 14 yrs old, now 65, i bought this for my 65th birthday to jam with. Awesome decision, great setup & action from factory, playable from the box. Color and finish is excellent. Neck is bolt on (love it). I was so impressed i bought another as a college grad gift. For a beginner this is a must, for experienced players, for your arsenal this is a must. This body & neck are balanced, this guitar feels of a quality much higher priced guitar.

A solid guitar. Out of the box, the neck is good, straight, clean. The frets are all even! Slight adjustment on the action. Intonation is spot on, believe it or not. I was pleasantly surprised. My only other surprise was that the finish is NOT gloss - No lacquer or "clearcoat" over the paint. This gives it a very slight texture. I imagine this is by design, because SOMEONE would have flagged it while performing the setup, right? I hope that the paint offers as a sealant to the pores of the wood. The tuners are smooth and it tunes easily. The body is a good thickness, not overbearing like a LP can be. I would give 5 stars if I knew the finish would withstand penetrating dirt. Edit 1/3 - I hoped that Leo Jaymz would reach out regarding this review, but not so. However, after some research on good ole YT, viewing others who purchased this Flourecent Green model, I see that the matte finish is ineed the desired look. Now that I know I did not get something defective, I will bump my review up. :)

Lousy tuners and the neck flexes easily. Control cavity cover is scratched up only because it had no plastic on it to protect it. I am a guitar tech so I'm replacing the tuners and gonna see what I can do about the neck. i can say the guitar has a really nice paint job. The pickups sound okay for the price. I did do a quick setup on the guitar getting the intonation within the ball park and the action close to my likings. It's the cheapest guitar I ever bought and figured for the price I would have to do some upgrades and repairs.

Absolutely flawless! This black beauty tuned up perfectly and the intonation was spot on. Fretwork seems very smooth, maybe a very minor rough edge on a couple, but I have the tools to smooth them out if I wish. Neck is straight with no apparent bowing. Tuners seem smooth as glass, but will give them time to aclimate to the strings to see if they stay in tune. The strings are common type, seem to play well, but of course I will change them to Ernie Ball Slinky's down the road. Fretboard looks just like rosewood, but i am no expert to determine if it is a composite or not. The nut looks like bone, but if it is not, they sure did a good job aging the plastic to look like it. Over all, it is a beautiful guitar to look at and I am extremely happy with it.

Okay im gonna say all the good things about this guitar right off the bat, and then my personal dislikes about it. First off, right out of the box, this guitar is a very good guitar. No sharp fret ends, no unleveled fret (at least from what i noticed), stays fairly in tune most the time, and no faulty equipment. The action was perfect for me, not too high, not too low. It was very fun to play right out of the box and I’d definitely recommend this to a beginner who is just looking to learn guitar at a low cost and at a low volume in their room. Now onto my personal dislikes First off the pickups were somewhat microphonic. They squealed as soon as i cranked up my amp just a little. Not the feedback kind of squeal.. the ear-piercing high pitched horrid squeal, so I had to swap the pickups. Secondly, the strings were… not that great. I still played the guitar with the strings it came with because it wasnt too big of a deal for me but they werent that great. Those are the two complaints i really have about the guitar but theyre not that big of a deal to someone who is just learning guitar in their room at a low volume, or wearing headphones All in all, id recommend swapping the pickups (if you know how to do it) definitely change the strings, and maybe the tuners to some better quality ones or even locking tuners. I love the guitar, and im definitely gonna play this live at gigs (now that it has way better pickups)
