Aubs, i only played a Jem once for about 5 minutes, are the frets jumbo or medium? i'm with dean though, amp and fingers are where the tone lies. Clips!? Or this thread doesn't matter?
6105, (narrow and tall) is the spec. Is that medium-jumbo? Quite frankly I don't really pay much attention to all type of specs. I buy a guitar because I like it, and just play it! To give you an idea, I see people quoting all types of exotic woods etc. I could'nt tell you the diffs between one piece of wood and another, and it really does'nt bug me.... ? I don't even bother to read up on all the tech stuff on this site eg "set-ups, mods, etc", just not my scene. ?

I've never understood how gigging musicians can have around 8 amazing guitars (which look cool on stage) but play through a farty sounding combo amp (no offense to anyone here with that setup ?). I would have sold about 5 of them to buy a great or decent amp/cab to make the remaining 3 guitars (and myself as a musician) sound even better.
When I read through some of the threads, I also sometimes wonder...... ? (not just amps!!) you said what I never dared or had the guts to say many times, I agree with you 100%......also, no offense...
That said, I played in bands a long time ago...had lots of fun....that's it! Now, I love guitars, so I collect them, have fun, for myself and now my little boy who has become my primary focus as far as guitars and music goes. And I think I can appreciate "good/decent" sound! So maybe my JVM is really over-kill, but hey, so what? ?
Perhaps you have not realized, but I am just past my half century.....hahahaha!!! ? .... you know, at least quite a bit younger than Mick, Keef and the boys! Hahahahaha!!!
