So I bought a Jazzmaster the other day, I love the tone and the way it plays. I dont exactly play Jazz.. www.myspace.com/themerrygorounds thats what I play.
Anyway, so we played our first gig the other day, and stupidly I decided to play the guitar I had only owned for two nights. The entire gig I was battling the E string falling off the bridge. It was a pain, but we survived and actually got an encore.
So today I went to the store where I bought it and managed to pick up a buzz stop. I put it on my guitar and then my top E string broke.. After restringing the guitar I started playing and the whole feel of the Jazzmaster has gone.. There is so much tension on the strings!
I play quite fast, and quite heavy but I also love the way this guitar feels. Ive heard the Mustang bridge can cure it slightly, but still not to the extent of stopping it completely.
Have i made a mistake in buying the Jazzmaster? I really want to learn how to utilize this instrument because she is beautiful, and sounds like an angel passing wind.
Any ideas?
Heres some pictures of her, I call her 'White Unicorn'
