      I think in the Rig Rundown they did with Premier Guitar like five years ago they talk a little bit about each others guitars. Long story short: they can't play them because of how different they feel.
      But now that I think about it, back then Mick was with Ibanez. Now they are under the same parent company, they could do some marketing together.

    Jim is by far one of my favorite guitarists ever, and definitely one of my main heroes.
    Even though I'm not a huge fan of active pickups, or the minimalism of just having one single knob, the looks/aesthetics of this guitar model completely sold me, it's just a too big turn on.
    I really wish that Fender/Squier comes up with a HH Jazzmaster back in the line for 2021, (like you did for the Modern Player Series) with looks similar to these (maybe a regular C chape 9.5" radius, but keep the block inlays, some cheaper wood for the body like Basswood, and I don't even mind if you change the type of bridge, or the humbuckers).

I’m in love with it and can’t put it down. I have the JR Tele as well. This Jazzmaster has a different feel and tone compared to the tele. The new neck style is more comfortable than his previous sig models. This guitar rips and is my prized possession.
