The J & D LS II Translucent White is a tribute to the famous blues-rock icon in a single-cut design and offers rich sounds at an unbeatable price. Authentic tones are ensured by the classic combination of mahogany and maple, which lends the guitar’s fundamental character a warm and full-bodied tone. Naturally, it features two humbucker pickups in the neck and bridge positions. The separate controls for Volume and Tone and a three-position toggle switch allow you to reproduce all the sounds of the original. The J & D LS II Translucent White is completed by a Tune-o-Matic bridge and an aluminium stopbar, along with six die-cast chrome-look tuning machines.
J & D LS II Translucent WhiteI recently bought this guitar, and got it recently.
It's been a blast and looks even better.
Cons;
The frets are very rough, requires sanding on both the top of it and the sides.
Came very dusty and ragged looking on the neck area, but mostly just cosmetic, easy wipe with fretboard conditioners and it'll turn out great.
Pros
Its beautiful
nice to play
neck is great
sounds good for the price.
Pros: beautiful genuine maple top, all Mahogony (like the real deal), bone nut, rosewood fretboard (dry out of the box), great craftsmanship and finish, lovely neck.
Negative (let's call it "meh", as expected and no deal-breakers): pickups harsh and just loud without definition, cheap dime sized pots and cheap wiring, some high frets that need leveling, wobbly tuners.
With about 100£ in upgrades (pickups, tuners, wiring and pots) you get yourself a guitar that rivals any Epiphone for half the price. The shape is slightly off (bulkier on the left, opposite the horn), but it makes the guitar look a bit more individual.
Similar guitars in the same price range are basswood or Okoume - here you get the full Mahogany deal. A perfect base for an amazing LP!
