J & D TL Alder MN (3-Colour Sunburst)

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.

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.

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 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.
