Overall Rating: Seeing as the price for this guitar according to the shops website has recently been raised to 2795 SEK, I must have gotten lucky; they probably hadn't had time to change the pricetag. Considering the low price I can't fault J&Ds slightly lacking quality control. Any blemishes are what makes each instrument unique, and a unique instrument is very rare in these days of standardised mass production. If someone stole this guitar I'd hunt them down and roast them over a slow fire

Features: Dunno the year it's made, possibly last year (2005). On the island of Taiwan I suppose, but I don't really know where J&D have their guitar factory. 22 frets. Two humbuckers, haven't yanked them out to see who made them. 2 tone, 2 volume, standard LP 3-way toggle switch. All passive electronics. Body is either alder or mahogany, neck is either maple or mahogany, fretboard is rosewood with lovely block inlays a la Les Paul Custom. The whole guitar is painted in a creamy white nuance, the front, rear and headstock binding is gorgeous; it looks a hell of alot better than any Epiphone I've seen so far.Tune-o-matic bridge with the intonation screws turned towards the bridge pickup, ha ha ha! Lovely feature, dontcha think? Kluson die-cast tuners. All metal parts gilded/goldplated/or whatever it's called. black/white/black pickguard. The neck is surprisingly thin, which feels very nice; scale length is 628 mm, fret radius 350 mm.
No extra stuff came with the guitar, it was the only white LC3 left in the shop; apparently they've been selling real good. I did get a cardboard box for free to take it home with as it's still winter here.
Sound Quality: Haven't had time to plug it in and crank my tube amps yet but I'm sure it'll sound just fine.
Reliability/Durability: I've just bought the thing, so can't really say anything about this.
Customer Support: He, I seriously doubt I'll ever need to contact J&D headquarters in Taiwan.
Purchased From: Jam, Malmo, Sweden.
