Leo Jaymz 39 Inch Solid Body Electric Guitar,Maple Neck and Laurel Wood Fretboard (US Flag)

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.

This was a gift for my husband, who plays in a band. He absolutely loves this guitar’s look! He has owned Fenders and other quality brand guitars, so I was concerned that the very economical price on this one would mean it was a lesser quality instrument. We were both pleasantly surprised to find it comparable to his higher-end guitars in sound and performance. It’s not a Fender, but he likes playing it just as much as his other guitars. Great sound, decent quality, so happy with this purchase, especially for the price!

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)

Very nice guitar for beginners. Needed very little setup. Looks great, finish is nice, tuners stay in tune well.

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.

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. :)

This guitar has impressed me more than I can say. It was perfect right out of the box - action, intonation bang on, which I've never seen before. Plays better than my Epiphone Custom Shop SG at about a quarter of the price, even plays better than many Gibson SG's I've played. Bound fret board, jumbo nickle frets with no ragged edges, really nice looking trapezoid fret markers. Honestly, the only things I did was to throw on a set of strap locks and my own strings. I'm now looking at some other models offered by this vendor, and would not hesitate to recommend these guys to anyone. I think we'll be seeing a lot more from Leo Jamez in the future, they're going to give the increasingly lazy giants a real run for the money!

Beautiful looking guitar ready to play straight out of the box, well finished and fantastic value looked up reviews on YouTube and had rave reviews for a budget guitar I'm very impressed and with new strings and a little tweaking for my style have a product i would recommend and buy again from this Brand

What an amazing color! It really comes to life when you unbox it and get it into your studio. Nice little guitar, really inexpensive price point and not the greatest guitar you will ever play, but definitely good value and an excellent starter guitar. Right away you're going to want to swap the strings out for something better and that will improve this guitar tenfold. Otherwise, the action isn't bad, the unit doesn't suffer from neck-dive while hanging off you on a strap and it has a nice tone/sound to it. Recommended if you want it as wall art or are starting out learning how to play.

Beautiful guitar sounds amazing highly recommend and for the price its a bargain thank you

The look and feel are good. I really like the blue colour with the matching headstock. The fret ends were alright, didn't have to mess with them. There was a buzz on the low E string, had to make several neck adjustments to fix it. Also put on a new set of strings. The tuners aren't great but they can easily be replaced. Overall for the price, this is a decent SG copy.
