I wonder what SRVs beyond the grave thoughts are in regards to sustain.
Probably wishes he sustained his life a little longer.

Wow, this thread really took off from when I last looked at it...

Yes, my guitar has a standard JM bridge. Are there Jazzmasters that come with tuneamatics?

The J Mascis Models most prominently, as well as various Mexican models down the years.

People have varying opinions about them, but I'll let others chime in with those.

I've a couple offsets with them on. They're not great and a hassle to find replacements for. I wouldn't not buy an offset with them on - the two I have are fantastic guitars - but I'd be aware of what you're buying. One of mine is hardtailed and the other has never seen any vibrato use.
