Here we go, I went and looked on Music123, did some review searching, asked around with some people and came up with this -

Jay Turser JT-140 Colonel - $525 - I've always wanted a Gretsch white falcon, but can't afford 'em, this guitar looks exactly the same in white, and the reviews say it has a similar tone, that could be used for jazz and blues (along with rockabilly)

Washburn J6 - $800 - This is a bit pricey for me, but I may convince myself to save up the 100-200 dollars more for it, just 'cuz it may be more reliable

Fender '72 thinline tele reissue - $670 -I really would prefer a hollowbody (as opposed to a semi), but everything about this guitar just "works" so I don't really know

So there it is, I love the Jay turser in the looks department, but I don't know about reliability (because my last two guitars that I decided to get for cheaper have horrible tuning problems)

The Washburn looks cool (not as cool as the Jay) but its just pricey, and if I can get the same reliability out of the Jay turser with a good jazz tone, I'd rather it.

And the fender. I've never been a big fan of fender, so I might want to see what they're all about. I kind of like big hollows better, but the fender is less prone to feed back.

I did find info. on the yamaha (on google I had been saying 100 instead of 1000), but I'm not really looking for another solidbody maybe later I'll look into it.

That's it!

Thanx a lot, hope this isn't too annoying to ya guys
