    I recently bought a Fender Player HH Jazzmaster. The tremolo was very clunky, the pick ups were weedy. It was terrible out of the box, not what you'd expect of a £600 guitar.
    I needed a guitar as back up, so I took a punt of the Squier Affinity JM HH, it absolutely owns the Fender for a third of the price. Hardtail - but who wants a useless tremolo? The pick ups were loud, well matched and rocked! The neck was neat and it played great out of the box. This guitar will become one of Squiers unsung classics, buy one, you won't regret it.

    I got the bullet Mustang in surf green to complement my fsr Bullet Telecasters without really expecting much, and it blew me away. Total sleeper. However, it is my first 24" scale and it's ruining me for regular scale. I realize that it's intended for smaller hands, but I'm 6'1, with proportionate man hands, so this makes it feel like a toy, or like I'm a giant. Everything is ridiculously easy now. I now know and understand how Hendrix must have felt with his enormous hands. It really gives people with already large hands a huge advantage.

    The Mustangs have a 24" scale. Squier mistakenly listed it as 24.75" scale.

    • @MrAlexhollins
      @MrAlexhollins Před 7 lety

      76sagi Have you first hand knowledge about this? Seems like a stupid mistake for Fender/Squier to make. Mustangs are traditionally 24 inch scale length. It wouldn't be the first time a manufacturer had got their own specs wrong. I'd like to see a tape measure up against one of the Mustangs.

    • @pmtvsam8746
      @pmtvsam8746 Před 7 lety +15

      Yep, you are totally right, I'll put my hands up and say I got it wrong on this one! As you say, Squier have mistakenly listed the scale as 24.75" in the specs...but I've just got the tape measure on one and it's definitely 24".
      Thanks for pointing this out, I'll make sure we get a revision/disclaimer put into the description and annotations on the video. Cheers!

    I owned, played and modded over 100 guitars from cheap to expensive and all types of. A long journey and thousands of bucks later it ended up with this Affinity Jazzmaster. Just changed the tuners and the stringtree and gave it a good setup. I own three of them. I prefer only playing the neck PU on all my guitars. To my ears and personal taste this affinity pickups are the 'best' sounding ones. They Sound like Singlecoils with much more Output. They are ceramic, which i prefer. I buy them on the second market and put it in much more expensive guitars.

    Thanks Sam. To my ears the guitars sound quite different. A bigger more complex sound from the Jazzmaster compared to the Mustang - but it's always hard to tell on CZcams. There's only 60 or 70 quid between them - so not bothered about price. Which guitar do you like better and why? If that's a hard question to answer - What is the Jazzmaster better at doing? What is the Mustang better at doing? Cheers again. Mike

    • @lgiorgos1
      @lgiorgos1 Před 6 lety +1

      I agree, the Jazzmaster's sound is more defined. Is it because of the longer scale? Also it seems that he uses the stock strings, which are very loose for the Mustang and serve it very well.
