  • 275 Deluxe

    I think this is what I have come across. Its very clean. Whats an opinion on this guitar. Looks like double singles at the bridge position. Not sure on this one.

    They're solid, well-made, and have nice necks, but they come equipped with the single-locking version of the Schaller Floyd (JT-570). The bridge can be swapped out for a Schaller Floyd or used JT-590, or you can convert it by adding Schaller locking saddles. A regular hum can be added with just a little bit of woodworking. Factoring all of that in, I'd personally want to spend under $200, and I'd have to be in the mood to track down parts and do the work.

      Thanks, appreciate the response. I thought it was a bit high priced at $350. Especially with what I would want to modify.

        Found a cobalt blue 275 in a pawn shop a couple years back for $100 and did some of the mods described above,installed a Super Distortion in the bridge and a EMG S3 in the neck. I blocked the vibrato and just play it as a hard tail for now,not a bad little guitar,gets some really great tones with the pickup placement. Have about $225 invested.
        IMHO $350 is way to high for a 275,you can find some of the Model series guitars for less than 350 if you look around.Oh yea,the original pickups are very weak in these guitars.

          The early 275's had a full strat body, a chrome JT-6 trem, and a J-90C in the bridge, those are the ones to have.
