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

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.

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.

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.

I’ve heard so much about these budget guitars and after years of buying name brands and reading many reviews I decided to take a chance on this guitar. Wow, was I surprised. First, the finish is absolutely flawless, has a nice black binding and is a beautiful green flame top. I love the clear pickguard, brings out the whole guitar. One small turn of the trussrod and it was good to go out of the box. The action and intonation were spot on and I measured the resistance and inductance of the pickups with a LCR meter and is comparable to name brands and sounds great. Beautiful mahogany body , maple neck and very nice abalone recessed inlays, never seen that before. The frets are rounded off and no issue there and I measured with a fret rocker and they are all level. For $99, it’s an absolutely beautiful well built guitar. Maybe I got lucky but I’m very happy with mine. Good luck!

I can't get over how great this guitar plays. Jumbo stainless steel frets and a Beutiful quilted Maple veneer top. After a quick set up it plays perfectly. Look out Fender!

A rather jolly guitar for the money, excellent quality, very attractive and shiny, featureing a tiger stripe finish on the top, a solid mahogany body with black binding, two single coil pickups, the neck is quite substantial which I like, sure to attract some admiring comments when it’s out being played in public, it comes with a lead and Allen keys, no gig bag or strap, you may find some minor imperfections when put under a microscope but you can’t complain at this price, will I upgrade any parts? probably not, what’s the point? I’ll just enjoy it as it is for now.

Pickups are hot fit and finish impeccable no tuning issues fretboard is finished

A few words of praise for the Leo Jaymz guitars are not enough! I have bought a number of them, because I know that the same high level of build, quality and sound they produce is far better than I initially expected; which makes them worth a lot more than they cost. Truly excellent, but makes me think that if I can such these great guitars for; when compared with others, such a low cost, how much of what others are charging goes directly into that companies profits!

This guitar is a piece of beauty in the hands. The moment you take this in your hands, you start wondering, “Did I just bought this for under 200 CAD?!” Because it does not feel right. I had to admire for a few moments the craftsmanship, build quality and the overall beauty of this guitar. Out of the box, this is a fine guitar. Check the pictures I posted - the neck is beautifully lined along the frets making it smooth to hold and play. I don’t personally prefer shiny neck over satin but this one is shiny maple. Then check out the lining around the body of the guitar, you cannot but admire how meticulously and carefully the guitar body and necks were crafted! Every other pieces of electronics, knobs and metal parts are showing off great quality! Now, let’s talk about the sound. I have done some measurements, some fretboard straightening and action adjustments, some adjustments at the saddle for ‘buzzing’ as well as ‘intonation’ and then it produced the sound that no one can tell from any guitar they preferred! I can guarantee that if you hear this guitar vs. any other of your choice, you cannot tell the difference! Now the ‘setup’ is required; mostly for personal preferences. If you know how to do, then fine. But if you don’t, you may want to take it to the professionals. Without the setting, the guitar will still sound great, maybe not the way you like to play. Every player has their own preferences, metal players strike harder, so they require higher action. Pop, fusion, jazz or rock players may not need that. The setting is always a matter of personality of the player, to make this “your own”, you should do some setup to the guitar. And I have not changed the strings yet, I know they are probably going to be replaced by my favorite gage in near future. But without the strings changed, the guitar sounded perfect. The crisp bright notes of the bridge pickup was all I that I wanted this guitar for. For heavier stuffs, the neck pickup does an excellent job picking up the low frequencies loud and clear. With or without high gain (distortion), the bridge pickup sounds great! For metal and rock genre I prefer Les Paul, which is something I have been playing so far. I recently fell in love with the strat and tele sounds; they are perfect for some select genre and must be played on either a strat or tele for their signature bridge sound. This one delivers perfectly. I recommend this guitar without a doubt in my mind. I only hope that they did some sort of setting before the item left the shop so that users who are not able to set up the guitar for themselves can have the same buzz-free, low action fun of playing out of the box. That explains the four star in this review. But in my heart, the guitar is 5-star. Anyone interested can learn setting up electric guitars on YouTube and save the extra 100 bucks owning this guitar. Hope this helps.
