The J & D TL Ash RW Butterscotch Blonde Highgloss electric guitar is aimed particularly at beginners but is also ideal as a second guitar for advanced guitarists, and its authentic outfit is not the only thing that makes it stand out. The easy handling and robust construction of this classic promise long-lasting playing pleasure and authentic feeling. Uncompromising details such as a solid ash body and the maple neck, as well as the simple but functional hardware stand for honest sound results, not least thanks to two ceramic single-coil pickups in the neck and bridge position.
The 3-saddle T-style bridge in traditional strings-thru-body construction ensures resonance-friendly vibration behaviour, which is transmitted via two characteristic single-coil pickups. Furthermore, the J & D TL offers a classic electronic design in the form of a master volume and master tone control including a 3-way blade switch for pickup selection. Of course, the familiar pickup position with a baseplate surrounding the bridge pickup is not missing either.
The neck of the J & D TL Ash RW Butterscotch Blonde Highgloss is made of maple and features a composite fretboard with 22 easy-to-reach medium frets, string trees for d- & g- and b- and e-string, and convenient access to the truss rod on the side of the headstock. At the back, the neck features traditional C-shaping from headstock to neck heel with the ideal amount of wood for comfortable fingering and controlled bending. Last but not least, the J & D TL Ash RW in Butterscotch Blonde highgloss finish presents the interesting grain of the ash appropriately and harmonizes perfectly with the similarly coloured maple neck.
If you prefer to play electric guitar instead of constantly having to retune, you can rely on the solid die-cast tuners of the TL Ash RW Butterscotch Blonde Highgloss. These indestructible tuners are self-lubricating and have a closed die-cast housing, which means that dust and dirt do not impair the function of the tuning machines.

Fabulous Guitar For The Price,its so easy to play,the neck is one of the best ive played & the pickups hold up against many high end ones,been playing for nearly 10 tens and its an amazing guitar for the price
The guitar is very beautiful. Properly fulfilled all the details. Easy to use. Soft ringing sound. Adjusting the sound parameters are also very high quality. Sometimes there is a rattling metal part (located under the strings in the middle of the deck). As a whole, satisfied with the purchase. In my shop (in Russia) electric guitars are very expensive.
If you want have a fender but dont want to pay the price that goes with the name, although Leo have made cheaper models like the Squier, take this one, you can even buy the original bridge cover to cover the ugly look of the bridge...
good wine doesnt need the praise..
I have a Squire (the cheapest one) tele, and this one (among others...).
Both are China made (Squire says "crafted in China").
I bought this one in order to shape the body like the strat contour style.
When it came home, I was dazzled with the shiny body lacquer, that I could not take my eyes off of it!!!
It got better, when I plug it in! So sweet sound, so nice neck, quiet pickups … Squire seems like paddle in front of J&D’s baby… And it is more expensive!!!
Now, I changed my mind and I will make my experiments on the Squire.
It stays in tune, no matter what, it sounds great, almost like it has noiseless pickups, it looks gr8 and it is cheap!!! There are no reasons left not to buy it.
CONS: Not so twang –ish sound, the pick selector needs upgrade (have some static noise when switching), frets needs some filing, bridge could be better (aesthetically), the neck “bone” is rubbish.
I was very pleasantly surprised at the high quality of this guitar. The finish is immaculate, and the hardware is high quality relative to some other budget brand guitars that have chrome hardware. Even the tone and volume knobs are high quality. The action is low and precise, and the sound is like a 52 Fender Telecaster, it’s really uncanny how good the sound is, considering the price. The alder body is a little heavy but well-balanced. The maple neck is matte – it isn’t varnished at the back, which worried me a bit when I first held it, that my playing would be slowed, but no, it’s great, and facilitates a firm grip. The strings run through the body, anchored at the back, and the resultant sound is great, you can really tell that the guitar is leveraging the body to create that distinctive tele sound. If there’s a weak point, it’s the tuners, they’re fine, but could be a bit better. Some budget guitars look the part but don’t sound like the real thing: this one does both. I am very very happy with this guitar. I really thought I’d have to spend at least 4 times this amount to get a decent tele, but this does it.
