Leo Jaymz Electric Guitar Monsoon Series,Reverse Headstock,Mahogany Body,Roasted Maple Neck,Rosewood Fretboard,Locking Tuners,Rounded End Frets,AlnicoV Pickups,Fixed Bridge (Blue Burl)

What a great guitar! Especially at this price. Came very well packaged with a high quality cable and some allen wrenches for adjustment. Arrived almost perfectly in tune and in flawless condition. Beautiful Violet Flame finish, lots of nice touches that say this guitar should cost much more than it does, including the beautiful one of a kind headstock, and the binding around the body, perfectly blended in under the clear coat, and along the sides of the beautiful Rosewood fretboard. Jumbo ball and stainless steel frets are a perfectly aligned and very comfortable to use. Tuners work great and the guitar has an overall tight and precise feel to it. Volume knob and three way switch for the double humbuckers also feel like quality parts. The sound is clear and powerful, very strong pickups and responds very well to effects. Can sound like a classical guitar or a heavy metal machine. The neck feels very slender and easy to get your hand around. Everything works well including the tuners which are very precise. That's the biggest takeaway for me is that this is a precision made instrument, and whoever built it cared about what they were doing. I heard in a review video that Leo James is a real guy and I would like to personally say Thank You for an amazing guitar at a super low price. I don't know if these will be affected by tariffs but I would recommend buying one of these guitars asap even though it would still be a deal at a much higher price. I'm sure there is more I could say but I we'll leave it there and strongly recommend that you buy this guitar. I will definitely be looking at other guitars from this brand. Shipping was fast and arrived sooner than expected. Thank you. I love this guitar.

Was looking for a new axe to play, i play some bass and dabble on other instruments and like to record and make my own stuff. I really wasn't looking to go back to my local Guitar Center. Did a little research and came across this guitar from a friend. Then saw a video of another person playing it and commenting how nice it was for such an inexpensive guitar. Looked online and here on Amazon and they were out of the model and color i wanted Violet Flame and Violet Ocean. It sold out fast apparently for those 1st gen units.A week later i get notice while on amazon website and see one used marked returned unknown reason, but in original box with everything. Took a chance thinking minor things i can fix easy enough and setup is par for the course on most guitars anyway, and they(Amazon) have money back if it doesn't work so.Guitar arrived and the outside box didn't inspire hope if i am honest. I calmly opened it up taking my time and then got to the inner boxing and foam protection molded blocks.To my surprise it looked new, untouched. Gently picked it up and checked it for blemishes, none. Checked the neck, Seems straight and the frets smooth. The back of the neck was nice and smooth. Nut while plastic isn't junk plastic, its actually a decent quality for the type it is. I checked the fret board with scale and frets with gauge, it was all within spec. restrung it and tuned. Holy cow it is an easy no frills guitar to play. Most use pedal effects anyway and this single knob 3 switch is built for shredding and is just a joy to play.I paid no where near retail for it (embarrassed to say how little i paid). Absolutely love this guitar almost as much as i did my 1983 Aria Pro II Urchin Deluxe. I think this guitar has that type of potential , really. The 3rd gen models now come with cases and locking tuners to make them even better low cost options!Appreciate the detail that went into this guitar that was designed for entry level but plays and shows above its station. Obviously shipping a guitar can have an impact on your experience as it could arrive damage, i was lucky and didn't suffer that in this case and just want to be fair and honest with folks i feel i got very lucky with this purchase to get a nice instrument undamaged.Thanks for listening to my long winded and personal review.

Needing a new budget guitar, I scoured the usual YouTube experts and went with the Leo Jaymz Monsoon, blue burl finish. This is a beautiful guitar, not a flaw or blemish to be found. The bridge pickup is great, as in hot. The neck pickup was sunk at a weird angle in the cavity and very loose. A little foam under the pickup and tightening the screws helped (mostly). A truss rod adjustment helped with the buzz on the low E at the 9th fret. I'll put on some new strings after oiling the fretboardand maybe lower the action a little more, when I have more time. Overall, I'm pretty pleased. It's a $240 (with a $30 gift certificate) guitar. I do think I'll take the recommendations from the experts (who get their guitars free) with a grain of salt next time. Recommended, but be prepared to put a little work in.Updated:. When looking to lower the action, I noticed that the neck angle is off. The neck has a positive angle, if you lay the guitar down, the neck angle is up towards the headstock. I'm considering shimming the neck to lower the angle but that might be above my comfort zone. Not sure we have a luthier in my small town and I'm not sure how much I want to spend fixing a $210 guitar. The MusicNGear YouTube channel did a 1.5 hour review of this guitar and he had the same issue.Update 4/14. I sent the first one back and received #2 today. Everything that was wrong with the first, is fine with #2. The strings were really rough but are getting swapped out anyway. The frets are a little off, they touch the binding on one side of the neck but not the other. But really, for the price, an excellent guitar. Intonation is spot on, actions low, sounds great, fast neck. Too bad #1 had issues.
