Jerry Jones 3-Pickup Single Cutaway

2005 Neptune, made in Nashville. Chambered masonite body, maple neck, rosewood fingerboard. Industrial pup selector switch, Gotoh adj bridge and tuners.

This guitar has SERIOUS twang, enough to make my telecaster blush! I was looking for a dano/rickenbacker sound without the headaches, and this is THE solution. With the three pups and careful tweaking of volume/tone knobs, you can get surfy or bluesy. No one trick pony here people.

Perfect out of the box. Everyhting was tight and clean.+

The single cutaway Neptune is quite possibly the coolest looking guitar ever. I have a black one with a clear plexi pickguard.

This guitar is built to gig IMO. I haven't had it long enough to judge how it "wears".

Haven't had to call them, so I'd have to say "No Opinion".

Legend has it Jerry Jones answers the phone quite often though.

I love this guitar and would be crushed if anything happened to it...and would replace it immediately. I love how it sounds, looks, plays ,and I love the reactions I get from others.

Made in the USA. Great price. I'll be buying more Jerry Jones guitars in the future. I hear the 12 string is awesome as well.

THIS IS A 2004, MADE IN THE USA, JERRY JONES SINGLE CUTAWAY, 3 PICKUP MODEL. 25 INCH SCALE NECK. 24 FRETS. BODY TYPE LIKE OLD MASONITE DANELECTROS. NOT SURE WHAT MATERIALS JERRY JONES USES. JUDGING FROM OTHER REVIEWS A POPLAR FRAME. 5 WAY STRAT STYLE SWITCH. MASTER VOLUME AND MASTER TONE KNOBS. MAPLE NECK. ROSEWOOD FINGERBOARD. GLOSS URETHENE FINISH. HAND SANDED TO SATIN FINISH. 14.5 RADIUS AT NUT. GOTOH BRIDGE AND TUNERS. BLOOD RED COLOR WITH CREME BINDING. CAME WITH FAUX ALLIGATOR SKIN COVERED HARDCASE. RED PLUSH INTERIOR.

I ENJOY PLAYING TWANGY, INSTRUMENTAL LOUNGE TYPE MUSIC. BILLY STRANGE, AL CAIOLA..... ETC. I HAVE NEVER HEARD A GUITAR WITH AS MUCH TWANG AS THIS ONE. ALWAYS LOVED DANELECTROS. THEY HAVE THE SOUND FOR ME. I USE LARGE AMOUNTS OF REVERB AND TREMOLO THROUGH A SILVERFACE DELUXE REVERB. BRIDGE PICKUP IS,PER JERRY JONES WEBSITE, HOTWOUND. WILL GET AS BRIGHT AND TWANGY AND LOUD AS YOU WANT BUT TONE CONTROL EASILY MELLOWS OUT AND WILL GET WHATEVER VINTAGE TELE OR DANO SOUND YOU WANT THAT YOU'VE HEARD ON YOUR FAVORITE RECORD.INBETWEEN SOUNDS ARE MY FAVORITE. SOUND EVEN LOUDER AND TWANGIER WITHOUT THE HUM OF THE INDIVIUAL PICKUPS. MIDDLE POSITION IS VERY AUTHENTIC PUNCHY ROCKABILLY. I LOVE THE NECK PICKUP FOR VERY MELLOW GENTLE SOUNDING LEADS OR CHORDS. I SHOULD STRESS THAT THE PICKUPS ARE OF A HIGHER OUTPUT IN ALL POSITIONS AND BETTER TONE THAN THE DANO REISSUES. INCREASED SUSTAIN ALSO DUE TO THE STRINGS THROUGH THE BODY.

ACTION WAS PERFECT FROM THE SHOWROOM AT MESA BOOGIE IN L.A. I ASKED IF THEY HAD HAD SETUP. THEY SAID THAT'S HOW IT CAME TO THEM. PICKUPS DON'T ALLOW ADJUSTMENT BUT REALLY NOT NECESSARY. EVERYTHING ABOUT GUITAR WAS PERFECT. SLIGHT GAP ON SIDE OF NECK WHERE IT MEETS BODY. DOES NOT SEEM TO AFFECT TUNING OR SOUND. BUILT LIKE A ROCK. EXTREMELY LIGHT. CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH. HONESTLY LIGHTEST GUITAR I'VE EVER PLAYED. VERY RESONANT. ACTION CAN BE SET VERY LOW DEPENDING ON STRING PREFERENCE AND TOUCH. I HAVE PUT EVERYTHING FROM FLATWOUND AND ROUNDWOUND 12'S TO 9'S ON THIS GUITAR. ALL SOUND GREAT DEPENDING ON YOUR STYLE OF MUSIC. CURRENTLY I PLAY WITH 10'S ROUNDWOUND. ACTION IS VERY LOW WITH VIRTUALLY STRAIGHT NECK. 2/32'S ON BASS SIDE. NECK IS VERY SLIM AND WIDE. VERY COMFY. ALTHOUGH I WOULD PREFER ONE THAT WAS FATTER.

VERY RELIABLE. ONLY THING ON IT I'VE HAD TO FIX IS BINDING AROUND EDGE OF GUITAR IN ONE PLACE. EASY FIX. BUT COULD BE MORE DURABLE. MY GUITAR IS BABYED BUT WOULD BE HARD TO DAMAGE EVEN AFTER HEAVY USE.

OUTSIDE OF REVEREND GUITARS, NO ONE IS MORE HELPFUL OR INFORMATIVE THAN JERRY JONES. VERY LIKELY IF YOU CALL YOU WILL SPEAK TO HIM. PROFESSIONAL AND PATIENT. WILL TAKE TIME TO ANSWER TECH QUESTIONS.

FOR ME, MY FAVORITE GUITAR EVER. DOES AND SOUNDS EXACTLY AS I WOULD WANT. OUTSIDE OF MAYBE A BIGSBY. WITHOUT A DOUBT WOULD REPLACE IF NECESSARY. RELIABILITY AND SOUND ARE BOTH BETTER THAN DANO REISSUES. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. COMPARED TO VINTAGE? FAR BETTER TUNING, SUSTAIN AND INTONATION. SOUND SLIGHTLY BRIGHTER THAN OLDER ONE. BUT TO BE EXPECTED CONSIDERING IT HASN'T BEEN AROUND FOR 50 YEARS. PERSONALLY I LIKE THE BRIGHTER SOUND.
