LEO JAYMZDIY TL Style Electric Guitar Kits with Mahogany Body and Maple Neck - Maple Fingerboard and All Components Included (TL)

Leo, not sure if this is your real name but, Boy , have you got this right! This kit is Amazing, yes, with a capital 'A'. Start with the packaging, each component individually boxed and well protected. A large instruction booklet in colour that details every step in the build process so vividly, I have had tons of kits and have never seen anything like this before. The body really IS made of Poplar and not Chinese Paulownia like so many misrepresented items for sale on line. The neck is top quality Hard Maple and very well made. The hardware kit is all individually wrapped and looks exceptional, even the chrome plating is faultless. I could go on and on but I must say, as a born cynic and Not easily impressed, I am Very Impressed! Value for money, 110%.

Painted the body and stained the .neck. Then put it together.It all goes together fine.Some work to do. Frets were uneven and needed filing, also some sharp edges. Neck needed adjustment. Not a big deal. Adjusted to stop fret buzz.Pickups are loud and treble.Once all the adjustments were done, this plays well and stays in tune. Never had a Floyd rose before but I really like it. Changing strings a bit more involved but once you get the hang of it, it's ok.This kit comes with shielding tape but. Instructions don't mention it. You need to Google to see how to use it. Easy to do but if you don't you will get constant buzzing when playing.I wasn't expecting much but have been pleasantly surprised.Love playing it so far.

Is a solid mahogany body.The neck I got was ok but needed a lot of fret leveling work.I decided to use the finish as isI bought better pickups than the ones in the kit but that was my choice.The coopper tape is great and makes a difference to the end resultOverall impressed

Good value

Firstly, I want to say that the build quality and the build experience was exceptional. Had the neck pick up worked this review would have had 5 stars, without question. However, the neck pick up does not work. What I wanted was a replacement pick up, after all the guitar was built, stained, oiled, and beautiful. What I was told was that the only option was to return that built guitar in return for another kit. That is rediculous, the pick up would cost pennies to replace, and I would not have to build another guitar. As it is I have had to buy a new pick up. Rediculous, the thing is of course that the new pick up will upgrade the guitar. I would have replaced the pick ups in a couple of years anyway, just not happy with the seller's response.
