When Jim Adkins, guitarist and frontman for platinum-selling Jimmy Eat World, cheerfully challenged us to design his perfect guitar, the collaboration began that resulted in the new JA-90. We sat down with Adkins and went over his old Fender TC-90 spec by spec, making some important changes that resulted in this unique new model. Features include a mahogany neck set into a semi-hollow ash body, Seymour Duncan® soapbar pickups, independent volume and tone controls, an Adjusto-Matic™ bridge and anchored tailpiece. Sweetness, indeed!. Case not included. List Price $999.99
