Leo JaymzTL Style Electric Guitar with US Flag Design - High Gloss Mahogany Body and Hard Maple Neck - High Transparent Acrylic Pickguard (US Flag, Deluxe)

I got the Union Jack Les Paul well over a year ago, and I like it. I've always thought the Union Jack was so rock and roll - for a basic, American Boy next door type! Just a cool rock and roll look. I grew up with Def Leppard and Van Halen, etc. So maybe the Union Jack stuck with me from Def Lep. Anyway - man the Les Paul is a good guitar. I dig it. Not perfect, but it's rock solid, and plays and sounds great.So I've been noticing the Tele for quite a while. Checking it out. And I finally thought... man if it's even decent, and close to the Les Paul... then what a steal. So I grabbed one. Got it 2 days ago, and pulled it out on Friday night to have some fun, and start my week-end with a blast. Wow! I am blown away. The Union Jack Telecaster is awesome! I mean.... it's crazy good. For the price I paid... I can't even believe what I got. It was a stone-cold killer.... right out of the box. All I did was tune it up. Required a little time for the strings to stretch. A few tune-ups. Then... I mean it just plays great. And sounds excellent. I am in love with this beauty. Tiny tiny bit of string buzz on the A-String. But I think a really small truss-rod adjustment will knock that right out. Action is medium-low and perfect for me. The pick-ups are extremely microphonic, which doesn't bother me a bit, really. I'm not going on World Tour. But just know... very microphonic. I am a rock guy - and my main concern is the bridge pickup. It's solid. Not incredible. But rock and roll capable, and solid. Got some punch. I can do pinch harmonics, and it will rock. Also - mine has zero 60-cycle hum on higher gain settings on my Fender GTX50. Zero. Maybe I got lucky. Maybe they shielded it really well. I don't know yet.The guitar is killer. Get one now, before they go way up. Actually, I am about to order a second one, b'c I have a (actual Fender) roasted maple neck laying around from a project that did not materialize. It matches the distressed look of this guitar's finish. So I'm going to throw that on the second one, and throw in a set of Fender Hot Classic pickups, and really hot rod that thing. But if I'm being honest, the first one I got was so good.... I don't have the heart to wreck it! I'm leaving it as is... and will do the second one.

Arrived quickly, packaged very well. When unboxed, neck had a little back bow to it. Had to cut down the provided Allen wrench and lower the neck pick up all the way down to get enough clearance to adjust the truss rod. Finally got the relief set and the open strings had buzz (nut cut too deep). Lowered the action and had notes fretting out on the upper register on the E/G/B/A strings. Leveled the neck using a notched straightedge and used a fret rocker, found 9 high frets above the 12th and 4 below. So I leveled and crowned the frets, and let me tell you, these are advertised as stainless frets, I assure they ARE NOT!! But after a fret level/crown, dressed the fret ends, made a new bone nut (one on it was plastic), redid the setup, this thing plays pretty good! I mean I was expecting to have to do some work to it just because of the price point, and that’s fine for me but that’s what I do…I am definitely a tinker-er lol.The flame neck is gorgeous, as well as the veneer on the body! The neck is little more chunky than the standard “C” of the F brand. The fit and finish is on par with the price point. The finish his pretty thin and not polished out all the way and does have some hazing in spots.The pickups are hot, and very very bright. Nothing a little tweek of the EQ can’t fix tho. Definitely going to be upgrading the wiring for sure!All in all after a little work I’m fairly pleased, and am planing on getting the t100 pro version as well!Last note, if your buying this as an upgrade platform, good luck. I have measured and searched to my whits end and the bridge is huge compared to most the other available top loaders on the market. About the only thing you can do is keep the plate and change the saddles.

After looking at some reviews online for some inexpensive electric guitars, Leo Jaymz seemed decently well reviewed. A coupon for this popped up and I grabbed the US Flag one. It is gorgeous. Also, the flag looks colored into the wood and is not a print. I say that because you can clearly see the grain pattern and I was looking at images of other ones of this same type and the grain patterns do not match. Which makes it more likely to not be a print glued on top and then sealed in. Which is usually the common trick to do with these cheaper guitars to make them look more expensive. Out of the box it wasn't tuned as expected, but was intonated fairly decent. The action was just a smidge high, but very playable. The set screws in the saddles were not cranked all the way down or up so there was plenty of adjustability to get the actions and intonation where I want them. The strings are decent for what they are worth. I am still fairly new to playing and only play for myself so I am not looking to drop super expensive strings on a new guitar I buy right away if I can help it. Tuners move smoothly and adjust well for me. The pickups are decent for me.Its a great looking, great playing guitar that needed very little setup to get going. For the price as a new player there isn't much more I could ask for.

I got the Union Jack version. Looks great and sounds great as well. Only problem I had is fret sharpness. Not going to complain . Wasn't expecting perfection for $129. That was the only flaw I have found. Just gives me something to do today LoL.At this price it's a steal . Highly recommend.
